    Mjalilsurve's 2 days trip to Maharashtra

    I travelled Lonavala over this weekend with my family. Trip was very well settled, all thanks to Back to holidays team and Shreya. Shreya was very helpful in arranging iternary as requested.

    Somnath's 5 days trip to Maharashtra

    A Memorable Family Trip with BackToHolidays – Special Thanks to Shreya Rajput Recently, my family of seven, including four senior citizens, embarked on a memorable trip to Mumbai and nearby destinations such as Khandala, Lonavala, Shirdi, Mahabaleshwar, and Panchgani. Initially, I faced challenges
    in planning the trip due to the diverse needs of my group. Arranging suitable transport, comfortable hotels, and selecting the right locations was overwhelming, especially since I wasn’t familiar with the region. That’s when BackToHolidays and Shreya Rajput stepped in and completely transformed our travel experience. Shreya not only helped me plan the trip from scratch but ensured every minute detail was taken care of. She crafted a personalized itinerary based on our preferences, unlike other travel agencies that often stick to rigid, template-based plans. What truly set her apart was her proactive involvement throughout the trip. Shreya called me daily to check on our experience, ensuring that each day went smoothly and making adjustments whenever necessary. Upon our request, she even arranged a guided tour in Mumbai, further enhancing our experience. Her attention to detail, care, and exceptional customer service made the entire journey stress-free and memorable for everyone, especially our senior family members. Recommendation: The only suggestion I would have for future travelers is to spend more time in Mahabaleshwar and Panchgani during the winter months, as these locations are exceptionally beautiful and deserve extra time to explore. A heartfelt thank you to BackToHolidays and especially Shreya Rajput for making our family trip so special. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a personalized and well-organized travel experience!

    Nksvetri's 5 days trip to Maharashtra

    Thank you, Travel Triangle, for yet another well-organized and memorable travel experience! Thanks to Kunwar Ujjwal of Travel Triangle for his exceptional support. As always, we had a fantastic experience with Travel Triangle and are extremely grateful for their safe and well-planned travel arrange
    ments. From the moment we booked our trip, the team ensured that every detail was meticulously handled, making our journey smooth and stress-free. The coordination between Kunwar Ujjwal and the service providers was seamless, ensuring that our trip was completely hassle-free and thoroughly enjoyable. Thanks to Travel Triangle, we had a truly memorable vacation, and we highly recommend their services to anyone in search of a trusted and reliable travel partner! We had an amazing experience with 'Back to Holidays', all thanks to Shreya, our travel service agent. From the very start, Shreya was incredibly helpful, professional, and attentive to every detail of our travel needs. She ensured that our trip to Matheran, Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar, and Pune was flawlessly planned and executed without a single hassle. Shreya was always available to answer our queries and provide valuable suggestions whenever needed. Her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction truly stood out. She went the extra mile to ensure we had a reliable and skilled driver, making our journey smooth and enjoyable. Thanks to Shreya of Back to Holidays, we had a stress-free and truly memorable vacation. We highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a well-organized and delightful travel experience. We had the pleasure of having Mr. Pawar as our cab driver arranged by Back to Holidays during this tour to Matheran, Lonavala, Mahabaleshwar, and Pune. His patience and professionalism were truly commendable. Despite the multiple destinations, he remained calm and accommodating throughout the journey. Mr. Pawar's driving skills are excellent, particularly on hilly terrains. He effortlessly navigated the steep slopes, ensuring a safe and comfortable ride for us. His expertise in using Google Maps to locate various places added to the convenience of our trip. Overall, we felt completely safe and well taken care of with Mr. Pawar. We would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and skilled driver for their travels. Thank you, Mr. Pawar, for making our trip enjoyable and stress-free! Improvements that can be done: Back to Holidays can enhance their service by giving drivers clear itineraries to cover locations systematically based on customer preferences, whether historical sites, temples, viewpoints, or game zones. Additionally, sharing details like toy train timings, temple pooja schedules, and ticket information would help ensure a well-organized sightseeing experience from morning to evening. We had an amazing time exploring various destinations! Riding horseback to the viewpoints in Matheran was an unforgettable experience. At Lonavala, we enjoyed visiting the Ekvira Temple, Karla Caves, Bhaje Caves, Mapro Gardens, Bushi Dam and Narayani Dham Mandir. Mahabaleshwar was breathtaking with Lingmala Waterfall, Mahabaleshwar Temple, Needle View and other scenic points. The Mapro Gardens at Panchgani added a delightful touch to our trip. In Pune, the Ganpati Temple, Sinhagad Fort and Aga Khan Palace were memorable. It was truly a well-rounded and enjoyable journey! Thanks to all.
