On a personal note, this wouldn't be the first time Ankit, from Honey & Ginger Holidays, has helped our family. We've known each other since his days working at a travel agency in Delhi.
Over the years, Ankit's passion for travel and commitment to his clients haven't wavered. He has built Honey & Ginger Holidays into a company that reflects those values. Knowing Ankit, I can rest ass (Read More)ured that everything will be meticulously planned and executed, allowing us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. This peace of mind is invaluable, especially with the added stress of our current situation.
He planned a fantastic trip for my father to Amritsar and the surrounding areas. I must say his dedication and attention to detail were impressive.
With Ankit, I can rest assured that we don't have to worry about anything; he goes above and beyond to ensure everything is in place. I look forward to booking another trip with you soon, hopefully a longer one!!
It was completely a satisfactory experience
