    Nksvetri's 5 days trip to Pune

    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.

The food provided did not have right quality which needs an improvement. The points of Mahabaleshwar wa
