Aditi's 5 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Thank you for making my trip so amazing, Club 7 Vacation. Mrs. Neha was extremely supportive during the entire trip. Driver Mohit was extremely adjustable and cooperative. We enjoyed a lot during the entire trip. Although our hotel at Gwalior Hote Moziac has a 4-star rating, it was not like that. The food was good, but the rooms were not very good.If you need space in the room and hotel, please do not opt for it. The rest of the journey was comfortable.

Jitesh's 5 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

He had a great experience with this trip. Cab driver was very friendly and was explaining us more about each temple and history behind it. On ground we didn’t had to face any challenges as booking was done in advance however we had to follow up multiple times to get hotel vouchers before the start of the trip. Further travel triangle agent was not responding to me for getting hotel vouchers. Before booking the trip agent was very active and helpful but after booking she didn’t bothered to respond also. It was commitment from Club 7 Vacations which ensured everything was in place

Gh's 8 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

Thank you Club7 vacation for the well planned and executed trip plan. The driver was well behaved and very polite. The cab was also good. MPT hotels were excellent. Hotels in Khajuraho and Gwalior could have been better. Both are not in good condition. Overall it was a nice trip. Club7 vacation team was quick in response and resolving queries.

We're still basking in the warmth of our incredible 13D/12N Madhya Pradesh adventure & we can't thank you enough for making it truly unforgettable! Your meticulous planning, attention to detail, and genuine care made all the difference. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we were in good hands. Our accommodations were comfortable and perfect for our needs, and the flight tickets were arranged seamlessly. But what really made our trip special was *Mr. Sumrin*, our amazing driver! He was the epitome of patience, kindness, and professionalism. His spotless vehicle & warm smile were a constant source of comfort throughout our journey. Please extend our heartfelt thanks to him! We also appreciated your regular check-ins, ensuring everything was okay and if we needed anything. It felt like having a friend looking out for us from afar. When we requested a few last-minute changes, you accommodated them with ease, putting our minds at ease. Your carefully crafted itinerary allowed us to soak in the beauty of Madhya Pradesh without feeling rushed. We saw so much more than we expected, thanks to your expertise!

Alsabah Khan Nagpur

Sakshi's 3 days trip to Madhya Pradesh

The trip was wonderful, however there were some loopholes as well. The package was a little costly as per the services provided. Indore hotel was very nice and decent, but Ujjain hotel was not as I expected. Cab drivers were polite in nature but cooperation and coordination was missing. Overall it was a good trip.
