Sushant's 7 days trip to New Zealand

The travel agent 's arrangements were perfect and we had a memorable trip. All the activities were well organised and Mr.Raunak Pathak was always in touch with us. We would like to go with him again. Memorable experience of the trip was landing on FransJosef glacier and Kaikora whale watching.

Ranjitha's 7 days trip to New Zealand

Travel Triangle helped me plan my honeymoon trip to New Zealand. We were in touch with Raunak, a gem of a person. I gave him an itinerary based on my research and interests (of my husband and I). Raunak included almost all those in our itinerary, booked fantastic hotels, and made great arrangements. He had informed the hotels beforehand that it was our honeymoon and so we got cute little surprises in some of the hotels. He also arranged our visas on time, gave phone numbers to coordinate with for hotels/sight-seeing/cabs (we didn't need it because everything was smooth and prompt), and also helped us book our flight tickets. He was available to clarify our doubts. This was a wonderful vacation for us, all thanks to Travel Triangle!

Suresh Bharadiya Hyderabad

Priyadarshini's 16 days trip to New Zealand

I, Jayant Limaye, aged 63, along with my wife Jyotsna, embarked on a journey to Australia and New Zealand spanning from December 18th to January 29th. We opted for a self-driven tour organized by Wonder Bird Holidays, masterfully curated by their representative, Mr. Raunak. Mr. Raunak ensured meticulous planning, covering every detail, from plane tickets to hotel bookings and internal tour visits. The arrangement was so impeccable that we never had any idle moments, as each destination was thoughtfully designed step by step to eliminate any potential challenges. Right from the outset, Mr. Raunak comprehensively explained every aspect of the tour, including plane timings, vehicle pick-up and drop-off schedules, weather conditions at each location, clothing recommendations, coordination with local tours, their timings, approach locations, and parking conditions. The offered 3-to-4-star hotels were of excellent quality, strategically located in city centers for convenient travel. Mr. Raunak conducted a thorough review of the entire tour, addressing all our queries well before its commencement. He remained consistently available via phone to provide guidance. An instance highlighting his proactive approach occurred during our journey from Wanaka to Mount Cook in New Zealand. Faced with an indefinite road closure, Mr. Raunak promptly informed us and suggested an alternative route, allowing us to reach Mount Cook at 5 PM instead of 1 PM, unlike other travelers who waited in Omarama and arrived at 8:30 PM. We commend Mr. Raunak for his swift and decisive actions on that day. His regular check-ins, inquiries about our location and well-being, and unwavering cooperation compelled us to give him a perfect score of 100 out of 100. Thanks to the exceptional service of the Wonder Bird Holidays team, particularly Mr. Raunak, our tour was not only enjoyable but also hassle-free. For anyone contemplating a trip to Australia and New Zealand, we wholeheartedly recommend Wonder Bird Holidays. Once again, heartfelt thanks to Wonder Bird Holidays and Mr. Raunak for crafting such a beautiful and memorable tour experience. Regards, Jayant Limaye. Jayant Limaye HAD A VERY MEMORABLE AND PLEASANT JOURNEY WITH WANDERBIRD AND TRAVEL TRIANGLE

Himanshu's 14 days trip to New Zealand

I am from Hyderabad and had contacted Raunak from Wanderbirds online. At first i was a little hesitant in booking from someone online, but as things went forward i can vouch for this guy. Always available on call and ready to help at every point. I must have called him everyday on my trip to NewZealand for something or the other and the response was quick all the time. The trip was very smooth and every minute detail was taken care of and planned well. I am from Hyderabad and had contacted Raunak from Wanderbirds online.

Ishi's 15 days trip to New Zealand

This is the 3rd trip that I have booked through Travel Triangle and as always they have delivered on my expectations. The agents that we connected to - WanderBird, helped us to draft a beautiful itinerary and took care of every little detail due to which the trip was extremely smooth without hiccups. I highly recommend Travel Triangle to travel without hassles. Every experience in New Zealand was unique and very well crafted by the agents as per our requirements. Some of the highlights of our trip were visiting the Hobbiton movie set, hooker valley trek and Bungy jumping. We thoroughly enjoyed the driving through New Zealand and ending our trip with a short stay in Sydney.

Bhargav's 14 days trip to New Zealand

I would like to thank the team of HubHoliday ,Mr.Amit Rana in particular and Mr.Vikas as well, for making our honeymoon trip a wonderful memory for the lifetime.The itinerary was perfect to cover both North and South Island highlights in 10days and was also a mix of romantic & adventure getaways.The best memories of the trip are as follows: -Kaituna river rafting -Hobbiton set -Tranz Alpine train from Greymouth to Christchurch -Self drive -Milford sound cruise However,I would like HubHoliday to consider the following points as well in order to improve upon the package offered : - The package cost can be revised as I felt after the trip was over that if I had booked all the hotels/flights/activities/transfers given by HubHoliday all by myself,the package cost would come around 3.25/3.5lakhs in total for 2 persons instead of 4 lakhs - the breakup being : Flights international/domestic and visa : around 1.25 lakhs , car in both islands : 15000 ,hotels : around75000 ,activities :around 1lakh . - The hotel in Christchurch should have been better:room was too clumsy for 2 people Anyways,I would definitely go with the friendly HubHoliday team in near future as well given the interest shown by them to improve further once I gave my feedback to them on the package cost. Regards Bhargav -Kaituna river rafting -Hobbiton set -Tranz Alpine train from Greymouth to Christchurch -Self drive -Milford sound cruise

Bhargav DS Delhi

Surabhi's 10 days trip to New Zealand

Travel Triangle and hub holidays helped us to plan and customize our tour. We had a really good experience. All the hotels were good. Queens Town properties had a mesmerizing scenic lake and glacier view. We received all the vouchers timely and did not face any issue during our trip. All our hotels were in the central location except for fox glaciar one. We did not have a very good experience with visa however which was done by travel relations. They were not aware of the documents and type of visa and kept bugging us but travel triangle was able to sort it out. Queens town apartments and the view. Glacier helicopter ride Franz joseph Milford cruise and the waterfalls Driving in new Zealand Indian food in new Zealand . It is comparable to indian restaurants.
