Vinzeeus's 2 days trip to Tamil Nadu

I am not satisfied with service provided , while booking agent told he will provide hindi speaking driver also he said full day driver will be with you and wherever you want to take you can take him in stipulated time but , in actual that driver refused to go any far place which takes 30min only, driver said he will charge extra if he goes 30 min far from city , also he was not able to speak hindi or English properly. Also after booking driver details given very late to me , I only called to booking agent for driver number Kodaikanal stay was beautiful, sky view villa is best to stay
