Moturi Sree

Moturi's 4 days trip to Pune

My trip itenary was designed by Shreya from back2holidays. She has prepared the itenary according to my requirements and it was very well fitted. The hotels were good and made us comfortable during our stay. The diver given to us was very polite and covered all the places.

Dhruvsolanki's 4 days trip to Pune

The trip was amazing. The prices were reasonable too with a good choice of accommodation. The only concern I faced was that the driver was advised to take a shortcut which was not that smooth but saved some kms and some tolls. This would have been fair provided I would have been informed of the same

in the first hand. Other than that everything was excellent.

Somnath's 5 days trip to Pune

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!
