    Hussain Cutpiecewala

    Gujarat

    Hussain's 6 days trip to Madurai

    Everything that was promised in package was delivered. However I had headache of co-ordinating with hotel staff and agency at places. 1. I paid 2k extra as part of package for hotel with good view, but normal room was booked. I had to co-ordinate Hotel staff and Anshu to allocate me room that I o
    riginally requested. 2. I requested and paid for Extra mattress as part of package, however at Ooty hotel I was not provided Mattress and I had to co-ordinate Reception, Hotel Owner and Anshu. I received mattress after 2 hours and was very tiring experience after long travel day. Overall trip planning was good. I had to pay for Driver food at many places even though I paid in advance as part of package and Driver Bata was included. There were chain of 5 people (Travel Triangle, Anshu from All India Holiday, Local Travel Agent , Car owner, Driver) in chain and that caused lot of confusions for payment as there was no single point of contact. Trip completed as planned but there were hiccups for sure! Overall very average experience.

    Hyderabad

    Abhilash's 5 days trip to Madurai

    CAB and Driver is good, driver has planned the places well and covered as per Itinerary. On the way, he has also explained about the places while driving in Mysore and Ooty. Hotel Delightz Inn is ok only (Don't go for it if you're more than 2 Adults). Room is very tight with no chair to sit and p
    lace the luggage, free breakfast is not that level as not much options when compared to others. Roopa elite is recommended hotel, breakfast is superb. After seeing the places and travel, hotels, trip seems bit costly. Time constraint to visit Ooty places Overall, felt that package is bit costly but went smooth from start to end

    Pburji's 3 days trip to Madurai

    I had worst experience with travel triangle and agent. faced many issue on the trip. Once payment is done then we are on our own only to deal with issues. No one will check after the payment. Rakesh was our travel agent from dream yatra .there is no plan done for our trip. No proper cab arrangemen
    t/ hotel payment issue. missed half of the tour sight seeing. Most importantly Dream yatra do not pick call, they insist us to send whatsapp message only.I also raised all these concerns to traveltriangle in email but there is no response. I am giving rating as 10 since feedback is not getting submitted when i gave rating as 1. No good experience, it was a NIGHTMARE.
