Gangtok Tour Package Reviews

Agent: Dream Fly Holiday

Chandrashekar • a week ago

Our Sikkim tour was nothing short of spectacular, and all the credit goes to thi (Read More)s incredible travel agency!- Dream-Fly Holiday and the tour co-coordinator Mamatha Madam. When I was given a tour enquiry to the DreamFly, I received a call from DreamFly, a woman voice so gently and motherly tone i.e Mamatha Madam. Fascinated by the way of approach of Mamatha Sister (because I am a Senior Citizen) I have confirmed our family tour with DreamFly as the tour cost has been chalked out so cost concept manner. Mamatha Sister is oftenly asked about problems when we were travelling and suggesting and arranging for better way out for our journey. We do not have more words to thank Mamatha madam for her tour co-ordination. We will plan a Rajasthan and Gujarath tour with DreamFly with the help of Mamatha Sister. My sincere prayers to Bhagavan Bholenath to bestow her with all auspicious future.
