    I just returned from a solo trip to Kerala, where I visited Kochi and Vagamon, and it was an incredible experience! My driver, Anthony, was absolutely lovely and made the journey truly memorable; his friendly demeanor and local knowledge added so much to my adventure. I genuinely believe that withou
    t him, the trip would have been far less amazing. I also want to extend my gratitude to Priya from Travel Triangle, who provided me with excellent advice and crafted an amazing itinerary that perfectly suited my interests. Overall, this trip was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the beauty of Kerala.

    The hotels and candle light dinner was awesome. The arrangements food cleanliness of the hotels was exceptional. I didn't took the cab service as I opted for self drive car. The only sad part was I had book the tickets from your agent and the return flight got delayed by 4hrs and he didn't inform me
    as he gave his email and mobile number to the airlines. I had to struggle with my 6months infant at the airport. Giving four stars just because of not informing the delay of my return flight. Candle light dinner
