    Ankit's 2 days trip to Coonoor

    Booking experience was very smooth and easy. Our stay was excellent. The resort was worth a 5 star. Food was awesome,staffs were very friendly and helpful. The ambience was superb, location is very good. We faced some problem regarding the car and the driver. The person is very money minded and did
    skip couple of places. Please try to assign a young driver next time. Also, take the full responsibility to pay the amount to the transportation and the resort/hotel next time. Please assign a good car next time as we had to wait for more than 2 hours in pykara as the car did not respond because of battery problem. Please keep these couple of points the next time I am planning any tour. The stay The places we had visited

    It was easy to plan our trip with travel triangle. We went to kodaikanal from Chennai and it was a customised package. Travel agent and cab driver was friendly and no issues faces during our trip. Excellent trip and would recommend anyone who wants to go on a trip with a customised package.

    Mumbai

    Kaushik's 8 days trip to Coonoor

    The entire trip was planned really well and we were very happy with the arrangements. Our cab and driver was very helpful and he ensured we covered all the locations that are planned. The hotel in Kanakumari and Pondicherry could have been better as the break fast and rooms were not expected , the b
    est arrangement was in Rameswaram and the hotel Arjuna was really good. The only challenge which i see is i did not get the trip invoice requested for claiming my TA and did not get any support from the agent. It would have been a great if i was supported on this front.

    Overall trip was good. Driver and tempo traveller was also good. However, hotel selectiont from agent was not at par. Hotel in kanyakumari was pathetic. I recommend travel agent to take care in hotel bookings. Average hotels. Although, coordination of travel agent was good. All the place
