Kavitha's 8 days trip to Wayanad

Had a good trip.The staff in all the hotels were good.

Shrikant's 5 days trip to Wayanad

I recently availed a travel package from 7C Destination - Ranjith helped us book the package, and while most of the experience was positive, there were a few drawbacks that I would like to highlight. Positives: Cab Driver: Sudhish, our cab driver, was exceptional. He was not only professional but also incredibly helpful and down-to-earth, making our journey smooth and enjoyable. Hotels: The hotels included in the package were excellent, providing great comfort and hospitality. Negatives: Houseboat Experience: Unfortunately, the houseboat experience was a major letdown. Not a single sightseeing activity was covered during the houseboat trip. The houseboat remained docked in a village where the crew seemed to be engaged in other work. Before the trip, we were promised a village tour, an optional powerboat ride, and then a return for a night stay. However, the crew moved at a very slow pace, and we ended up spending the night in the same village without fulfilling the promised activities. To make matters worse, we were dropped off early the next morning without any sightseeing. I hope 7C Destination takes these concerns seriously to ensure a better experience for future travelers.

Kochharritesh's 6 days trip to Wayanad

We had a wonderful experience, and the support provided by Comfort Destination representative Mr. Robin was exceptional. However, the houseboat experience could be improved by ensuring the air conditioning is switched on before the client’s arrival. This small step would help eliminate humidity and make the boarding experience much more comfortable. Travelling with very cooperative driver Mr. Shaji.

Went on kerla trip for 5 days. It was a wondefull experience. Cab and hotels were very clean. Driver helped us visit all the spots in a planned way. All extra payments were prior informed in the quotation so no hidden charges. looking forward to plan future trips with traveltriangle.
