    Ankitpatra's 4 days trip to Rameshwaram

    We recently had a wonderful vacation to Ooty, and everything about the trip was simply perfect. Right from the cab arrangements to the hotel stay and sightseeing, everything went smoothly and exceeded our expectations. A special mention to our cab driver, Prakash. He was extremely professional, cou
    rteous, and friendly throughout the trip. His knowledge of the local spots and helpful nature made our experience even more enjoyable. He ensured we were comfortable at all times and assisted us with every little detail during the trip. Overall, it was a memorable and stress-free holiday, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

    Omar's 3 days trip to Rameshwaram

    Breakfast was not as per statement made by your travel agent. It should have an open breakfast buffet but the provided breakfast was very very poor which was served a poor veg restaurant. Lately breakfast charges were deducted from my final hotel payment. Driver was soft spoken and a nice person.

    Priyami's 4 days trip to Rameshwaram

    I recently had the pleasure of booking a trip through MM Cabs India, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless, well-organized, and stress-free. From the moment I reached out, Mahesh from the team was incredibly responsive and attentive
    to my needs. He took the time to understand my travel preferences, budget, and interests, and crafted a personalized itinerary that exceeded my expectations. Every hotel and activity recommendation was spot on, making the trip unforgettable. • Expert Knowledge: They provided valuable insights about the best places to visit and local customs. • Hassle-Free Planning: All bookings, from cab to accommodations and tours, were handled efficiently. • 24/7 Support: He was available throughout the trip in case of any last-minute changes or concerns. Having a knowledgeable and courteous driver can make a huge difference in any trip, and Sharath was exceptional. • Punctual & Reliable: Always on time, ensuring we maximized our time at each destination. • Safe & Comfortable Ride: The vehicle was clean and well-maintained, and the driving was smooth and safe. • Local Expertise: Sharath not only took us to the must-see spots but also suggested off-the-beaten-path locations that made the trip extra special. I highly recommend MM Cabs India and Sharath for anyone looking for a stress-free and well-planned travel experience. Their professionalism, expertise, and warm hospitality made my trip truly unforgettable. If you’re looking for a travel team that genuinely cares about your experience, look no further! Would definitely book with them again for my next trip.

    Vaishnavi's 6 days trip to Rameshwaram

    I overall had a great experience! The only thing I’d suggest is the hotel in Rameshwaram that was booked wasn’t good - it was very untidy and not upto the standard. But apart from that - everything was pretty smooth.
