      5 days ago
      I recently had the most wonderful holiday in Goa with Travel On Ease, and I cannot thank Kewal and Poonam enough for making the trip so memorable. From the very beginning, the planning was smooth and hassle-free. They patiently listened to my requirements, understood exactly what kind of holiday experience I was looking for, and tailored the package accordingly. Everything was well-organized, right from the hotel bookings to local transfers and curated sightseeing. The choice of accommodation was excellent—comfortable, clean, and close to the beach, which made the whole experience even better. What impressed me most was the personal attention and care throughout the trip. Kewal kept checking in to ensure everything was going smoothly, while Poonam made sure that even the smallest details, like food preferences and activity timings, were taken care of. The trip had the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. Whether it was exploring Goa’s vibrant culture, enjoying the nightlife, or relaxing by the sea, every moment was well-planned and thoroughly enjoyable. I truly felt stress-free, which is exactly what you want on a holiday. Travel On Ease made me feel like more than just a customer—they treated me like family. Their professionalism, friendly approach, and dedication to customer satisfaction really stand out. I would highly recommend Travel On Ease to anyone looking to book a holiday. Special thanks again to Kewal and Poonam for going above and beyond to make my Goa trip super awesome. I’m already looking forward to planning my next vacation with them!

      Decent enough! The rooms they booked are very basic rooms but charges are on a bit higher side. We had to reach to the hotel and had to call them to confirm the booking. (Not pre-booked) Cab services were good tho! Driver was very much into our plan and on time to the places we wanted to visit. Overall a moderate experience!

      We recently went on a spiritual trip to Shirdi through TravelTriangle, and the experience was truly wonderful. The package included a flight from Chennai to Pune and a comfortable car journey from Pune to Shirdi. Everything was well-organized — from travel to hotel to temple visits. We had a peaceful and fulfilling darshan at all the temples. Overall, it was a smooth and memorable trip. Based on this great experience, I would definitely choose TravelTriangle again in the future. Highly recommended!
