    Vipin Prajapati

    Delhi

    Vipin's 5 days trip to Dehradun

    Our recent trip to Rishikesh and Auli was nothing short of magical! From the spiritual vibes of Rishikesh to the snow-capped beauty of Auli, every moment was filled with adventure, serenity, and breathtaking views. The hospitality and seamless arrangements made our trip truly memorable. We highly re
    commend this trip to anyone looking for a perfect blend of thrill and tranquility. !!! Auli was a winter wonderland! The snow-covered slopes were perfect for skiing, and the chair lift car was an absolute delight, offering panoramic views of the majestic Himalayas. The crisp mountain air and stunning landscapes made it a perfect getaway from city life.

    Hariharan S

    Mumbai

    Hariharan's 10 days trip to Dehradun

    The first two days of our trip was a total waste of time because of the lousy cab that reported to us one hour after we landed in Dehradun. And after that he has no money to pay the finest as his wheel was locked by the authorities for parking over time . Due to this attitude of the driver ,we were
    delayed for our trip to Rajaji and further that delayed and we missed the ganga Aarti at Haridwar . The next day too the same cab driver was hanging around and we refused to go in that car . PLEASE NOTE- This can was different than the video and photographs of the vehicle that was sent to us before booking the travel agent . Finally Mithila travels agreed to send us a better car and said that we have to pay ₹1500/- per day extra .. When we demanded to cancel our entire trip and asked for refund .. this price was brought down to ₹500/ per day and we had to accept because we were just hanging around Dehradun doing nothing for two days . Senior officials of Travel Triangle were also involved in solving the issue. After change of the vehicle & driver ..After understanding of the situation.... After the change of car & driver
