(Written on 04 Nov, 2024)

The booking and arrangements initially was excellent. Reeta was contacting me almost daily to assist me and finalise my itenerary. She also accommodated my preferred hotel requests. I then made paymen (Read More)t ,on 7 October 2024. Since then Reeta has stopped communicating. She however did ask her office to send me internal travel arrangements (after I requested the details) and I have since only had communications from Nikhil from her office. I just feel that I should have been advised by Reeta, that after initial sale by her , I will be handed over to her office admin for ongoing communication. Then I would understand. Otherwise I just felt neglected. Hope it all starts and ends well. I only arrive in Mumbai on 11/11/2024. But still dont know who will meet me at airport. Regards Mano

He was extremely taking care of us both during and after tour till be back homebooking new flights and changing ousightseeing. He also personally met us at the airport and facilitated transfers to our hotel in Delhi. Our guides for both cities and driver for the trip were also very helpful and always punctual. Conveyance arranged was also comfortable. We found Sulekha tours to be a good fit for our traveling party of 6 and would definitely recommend them. All hotels were 4+ star rated and the guides are well knowledgeable and very fluent in English. They have provided well history of each places before we entered into the monuments. The drivers are also very pleasant and very punctual and went with us without any complaints. I will recommend Sulekha Tours for anyone who wants customised tour wherever is needed.

Me and my wife booked a recent package with Shraddha at We TravelOutsav, where do I even start. Booking with Shraddha has been the easiest and best decision we made for our trip. From the time we fir (Read More)st spoke over call she has been so enthusiastic and friendly, she gave us a sense of relief for our booking. She was always hands on with our bookings and always readily available for us over call whenever we needed something. Our Rajasthan tour went perfect and without any hitch, all the hotels she provided were great, our driver Mr Jetesh was also great, a polite guy who always guided us the right way as it was our first time in India. She also got us a booking in Mumbai last minute when we were stranded. We would definitely recommend we traveloutsav to anyone who wishes to book with her. She's more like a friend to her clients than a trave agent. Thank you for everything Shraddha! Niral and Jagruti
