Pune
Pandey's 4 days trip to Kerala
We are back from our wonderful trip and all thanks to you both (Travel Triangle and Jeez). Planning and bookings were well done as expected. The itinerary was carefully thought through and well balanced. The trip represented great travel for the cost. Our booking was easy, the pre-information was timely and thorough. The set itinerary made the best use of our time. The hotels and tours were very comfortable, especially with kids. Even with compressed timelines, we thought that we saw the best of Kerala.Pratik Shah
Pune
Pratik's 8 days trip to Kerala
The most awaited trip to Kerala. It was well organized by Aswamedham holidays. We would like to Thank Sujeeth specially for his extended support for all the arrangements. He was approachable all the time throughout the Journey. Also special thanks to driver Mr Santosh, it was really wonderful experience traveling with him. Because of him our journey was safe & comfortable despite long routes. If anyone wants to visit Kerala then definitely go for Aawamedham holidays.Deep Kamal
Hyderabad
Deep's 5 days trip to Kerala
Pros: 1. Thumps up to MM travels and my coordinator, Monu, who was very prompt and reachable. 2. Trip was well organized and timely communications were sent across. 3. Hotels/resorts provided were very good. Cons: 1. Unfortunately, the driver (Mr. Raju) who accompanied us on this trip was the worst part of this trip and he literally spoiled the trip which otherwise would have been worth a five star. Highly incooperative and very adamant. He made sure not to listen to us at any time and even if he did listen, it was after multiple objections. Another issue, neither he could understand hindi, nor english properly. He insisted us to buy things from particular shops and interfered when I tried to bargain. Never stopped at any place for sight seeing which was not it my itinerary. He was always in a hurry to drop us at hotels as early as he can so he can set himself free. Stay at Lake Palace resort, Alleppey.Gourav Garg
