    Sandip's 6 days trip to Dehradun

    The travel agency Funtastic guided us very well—from planning the journey to taking care of each and every aspect during the trip. Special thanks to Ms. Kamini Madam whoc has guided and helped us a lot. Earlier, in January 2025, I had booked a travel package through TravelTriangle from other agent f
    or Assam, and unfortunately, the experience was horrible. Because of that, I was initially reluctant to book again through TravelTriangle. However, I later realized that TravelTriangle is only a mediator, and the actual experience depends on the final travel agent handling the trip. Recently, we traveled to Uttarakhand with RiseNgo Pvt. Ltd., and this time the experience was excellent. We are very happy with the services provided by them. They took care of every detail throughout the journey and ensured a smooth and comfortable trip. We completed our trip successfully and landed at Navi Mumbai Airport today. Unfortunately, it appears that some people—possibly competitors—are posting incorrect and misleading remarks on this platform, which does not reflect our genuine experience. I am attaching the Some communication from travel agency with me which shows that how much they are taking care of travellers.

    Mangaluru

    Vikas's 8 days trip to Dehradun

    Travel triangle: Other than connecting possible 3 agencies I didn't get much help. When the actual booking varied from quote TT person didn't even respond. before booking, there are too many calls from TT & agents but after that, hardly any response. Holiday fusion: No issues with bookings & overall
    plan. Once you make first payment, response is very slow; delhi hotel was different ( and poor quality) than what was quoted. Car provided was quite old but driver was good. With CNG cars we have to keep luggage on top which makes luggage all dusty and we need to get down each time refilling is needed. Had to pay out of pocket (even though I was assured at the time of booking that driver will drop) to get dropped for safari earlier in the morning. My suggestion is for TT to connect us with local travel agents who have deep local knowledge to guide us appropriately.

    Kuntal Desai

    Delhi

    Kuntal's 4 days trip to Dehradun

    I recently went on a trip where the assigned driver was expected to show us all the designated points as per the itinerary. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The driver did not cover all the locations he was supposed to show. Throughout the trip, he appeared reluctant to take us anywh
    ere and frequently complained about traffic jams. As a professional driver, it is expected to remain calm and manage traffic situations without letting it affect the service. Moreover, when he was unwilling or unable to take us to certain places, we suggested visiting other locations of our choice. However, he denied those requests as well. This lack of flexibility and unwillingness to accommodate reasonable locations significantly impacted the overall experience.

    Please be careful while booking Nainital trip as your itenary will not fulfilled as per description. Secondly, Driver don't co-operate when it comes to there commission. But the Hotel was very good in Nainital with great service. Travel agent Virmesh Bhagat was also quite co-operative. But I would
    suggest all the other travellers to discuss in details about itenary.
