What's Good: I just wanted to thank simran mam and rashee mam from iyaatra for organizing such a fantastic trip to Thailand(Phuket and Kairabi) I was highly impressed with the transporter, tri (Read More)p manager in thailand for comfort and quality of the accommodations. As a couple we really enjoyed the four island trip in kairabi, and phi phi island trip with lots of adventure. The itinerary was well-planned and we felt well taken care of throughout the entire trip. I would definitely recommend your company to others and look forward to booking another trip with you in the future!

What's Good: Hassle free booking, personalized trip itinerary We were quite apprehensive about the trip, but it worked out much better than our expectations. Special thanks to Harry for allayi (Read More)ng our fears and going out of his way to make the trip smooth and hassle free. Good vehicles, polite and knowledgeable drivers. Well planned sightseeing areas. Good hotels with hygienic rooms and decent buffet breakfast. Overall decent and safe stay. Worth the price.
What's Not Good: Being clubbed with a rowdy group of men for an island boat trip. But I guess that wasn't in control of the trip planners. Getting an uncomfortable mini bus for Pattaya to Bangkok journey with ineffective cooling

What's Not Good: The hotels were a little old but all the hotels, beach and shopping area was walking distance from them so it's ok.
