Nitesh's 3 days trip to Gwalior

Being a regular customer of TT, I haven't received any relaxation or cupon for this trip, Also the first hotel was as per expectations but the second hotel for stay was worst and TT has to first analyse such property before booking. For second hotel bad experience. The service Agent Ankush, the first hotel Ark Residency and the cab driver pankaj. Also the site seeing spots.

Aditi's 5 days trip to Gwalior

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 Gwalior

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
