      Jaspreet's 6 days trip to Varkala

      I recently booked a customized travel package from Bangalore to Mysore, Ooty, Coonoor, Kannur, Mahe Pondicherry, and Coorg through Travel Triangle’s associate agency, *Book It Forget It*, and had a truly enjoyable experience. Mr. Sahil, the travel agent assigned to us, was fantastic to work with—ver
      y understanding, professional, and experienced. He curated the itinerary exactly according to our preferences, ensuring everything was well-planned and smooth. The transportation arranged for us was top-notch. We had a clean, spacious car with great air conditioning and a friendly, well-behaved driver who not only drove safely but also acted as a helpful guide throughout the trip. His knowledge of local places made our journey more insightful and comfortable. Out of the four hotels we stayed in, two were excellent—one of them was absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations. The other two hotels, while not quite up to the mark, didn’t take away from the overall experience. I’d just recommend confirming the hotel details and photos in advance to avoid any surprises. The payment process was smooth, secure, and hassle-free, which made things even more convenient. Overall, it was a memorable and well-organized trip. I would definitely consider booking future travel packages with *Book It Forget It*, and I’d happily recommend them to others. Just ensure you double-check your hotel options beforehand. A big thanks to Mr. Sahil and the team for making our holiday so enjoyable!

      My parents went on a trip to kerela which couldn't have been planned better by them. Perfect customary itenary, and Mahima did everything to make this trip safe and memorable for them. Took care of minute details, like stays, perfect driver (who was more of a tour guide and made sure the family enjo
      yed each of the places). The stay in Allepey (Kondalip) instead of staying in the usual boathouse was the highlight and wise decision suggested by Mahima. The stay in Munnar was sumptuous!

      A Memorable and Perfectly Planned Kerala Trip – Thank You Comfort Destination & Ms. Kiran! We recently completed a wonderful and unforgettable family trip to Kerala, all thanks to Comfort Destination and the amazing coordination by Ms. Kiran. From the very beginning, Kiran ma'am took personal care
      in understanding our preferences and curated a perfect itinerary that balanced comfort, sightseeing, and relaxation. Her selection of beautiful resorts and scenic spots truly made our journey special. A big shoutout to Mr. Hashim, our cab driver, who was not only professional and punctual but also warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. He made our travel smooth and enjoyable throughout the trip. We sincerely thank the entire Comfort Destination team for their dedication and support. Special appreciation goes again to Ms. Kiran, whose planning and efforts made our Kerala experience memorable and successful. We’re short of words to express how satisfied and happy we are. If you are planning a Kerala trip, we highly recommend going through Comfort Destination — and do request for your trip to be arranged by Ms. Kiran. She is truly exceptional and will make your journey unforgettable!

      Rimmie's 6 days trip to Varkala

      Well, No doubt they presented a very good deal. We had opted only for a car to take us to various places in Kerala. The communication was good and swift and clear. Just that the car that arrived did not have a carrier and was not spacious enough for 5 people. Our mood was all spoiled right at the st
      art of the trip, as carrier and space for 5 was very clearly communicated to the agent several times. As a redressal, they said that they will provide a new car but on the next day and that we need to adjust in this car only for that particular day. Now why should we manage ? How difficult was it to arrange a separate small car for going from Kochi airport to Fort Kochi. This whole case wasted our 3 hours, and thank god we had a stay nearby where we could rest, else we would have been stranded on the airport. I cannot comment on how their services would be for accommodations and all, but a car was all they had to arrange, and they flawed. After a lot of heated discussions, they finally arranged the expected car, and the driver was really good, and we had a very nice time thereafter. So if you can ignore this incident, go ahead with them, as the prices and the itinerary were great.
