    Ponnampriyanka's 4 days trip to Coonoor

    Our family had a memorable trip to Madurai and Rameshwaram. Kiran was very helpful with designing our itinerary. Her prompt response to my requirements is greatly appreciated. Whilst we were happy with the customer service we received, the hotels chosen as part of the booking werent too comfortable.
    Perhaps, better choice hotels may need to be made available to customers to choose from. Abdul kalam house, meenakshi temple, ramanathaswamy temple, and Dhanushkodi

    Adroit's 6 days trip to Coonoor

    Hello, it was a last moment travel request I had raised over Travel Triangle but the most prompt reply was from Anshu of All India Holidays, it was not just prompt but sensible package with assistance on flight booking. Anshu was also always available over call for help. Also, would special mention
    for Cab Services from Narayan Raju and Cab Driver Deepak. The cab driver is very well versed in driving besides he assisted without expectation for ticket bookings, sight seeing, hill road driving. My trip was Bengaluru-Coorg-Ooty-Mysuru-Bengaluru Flight Assistance: Pune-Bengaluru-Pune Family trip 1) Mysuru to Ooty road trip via Bandipur 2) Driver’s assistance in getting tickets for Dubera Elephant Park during peak rush, and I wanted to visit the place for Kids 3) One minus point in hotel is for Hotel at Ooty, else all fine

    It was an amazing experience with travel triangle. Hotels were nice and clean especially Ooty one. Driver Chethan was good and on time. He used to plan day wise places for us and we were really impressed with his driving skills. Kudos to Swati who helped us to plan an entire trip.

    Rohan's 5 days trip to Coonoor

    Madurai Hotel was not good. Also can driver was good in driving but was unable to speak/understand in Hindi or English. Travel triangle is keeping the high amount of margin here which can be reduced. Also the price I paid was very high if i compare the hotel quality and find the cost breakdown.
