    Immediate response from the travel agent, and on-time pickup from the Airport by the driver too, where the driver was very friendly and responsible with his services performing all the tasks as scheduled in the itinerary. The hotel rooms are very well furnished, but we could have had the flexi check
    -in and the hotel staffs are very friendly too. Looking forward to plan more trips by using travel triangle.
