Nimishamukerjee's 6 days trip to London

Vishal Thakur was our co-ordinator from Knowravel Holiday Services. From day one to trip completion, he was always there assisting us, guiding us and answering our queries. As we were flexible with our dates, Vishal found us a very good deal on flights which reduced our travel budget by half. Overall package quote was very reasonable compared to the other agencies. He assisted us well for our UK and Schengen visas. The hotels where we stayed were very good and well connected for transport. The itinerary shared by Vishal was a good one which covered the main attractions for both the cities. We asked for some changes and he easily accommodated them. During the trip also Vishal was always available to assist us. Overall very happy with the services provided by Knowravel.

Svsvasan's 5 days trip to London

When I landed at Heathrow Airport cab and the cab driver, arranged by you for which I already paid and included in the package demanded 55 pounds more and I was made to pay that amount to the driver. This was informed to Mr.Prashant your contact person at London. He said he will check and do the needful. Please refund 55 pounds to me as the same was already paid to you which is included in the package itself. Thanks Srinivasan S V

Dreamplug's 8 days trip to London

This is in reference to the CRED London trip that was organized by Hub Holiday for us. Me and my partner had a awesome time in london. All the process was so easy, thanks to Yeeshu. I would like to give 5 out of of 5 ratings for all the help and support. Yeeshu was always available on phone, even when we were abroad and made sure we were not facing any trouble. A special mention of Prashant for helping us out while we were abroad. Prashant and Yeeshu made sure that we are taken care of even post-booking and its not just making the bookings but the overall experience of holidays with them. I would definitely recommend both of you and hubholiday to my friends and family for their next holiday bookings. Thankd and Regards, KAPIL BADWAL

Arpita's 5 days trip to London

Paras from Hub Holidays was my travel planner. He had made a good package keeping in mind that my mother and me were travelling together and this was our first trip to London. With regards to Hotels, both were good and located in the center of the city which made a lot of sight seeing attractions accessible by foot for us. Also restaurants and markets were nearby which benefited us. Flights suggested was the best. Even the attractions were good . Also to mention here, the trip was worked out as per the budget requested by me. Thank you guys for creating beautiful souvenirs for us :)

Mudit's 11 days trip to London

We got UK package for 6 nights and 7 days from CRED. And it was the best decision of Travel triangle to assign my trip to be arranged by HubHoliday. Hubholiday are too good in planning and customizing the trips especially Yeeshu who plans itinerary has been diligent in doing so. Also post booking the service they provide is much better and should be appreciated. Visa services provided by them was also excellent and efforts by Yeeshu to pre travel was really excellent he takes care of everything related to travel period is commendable.The best part about them is you get your query answered in like less than a minute any time of day or night especially during travel in UK, Yeeshu was always available to help on days and even on nights. We we're impressed so much and one of my friend after viewing our holiday pics on social media booked a trip from Travel triangle immediately for his Europe travel even before we were back from our trip. Just few points customized takes care of everything but still we need to do basic homework like checking docs and validating all tickets provided before travel to make smooth trip. Thanks Hubholiday and especially Yeeshu for your entire assistance and effort and making our UK trip possible. Will definitely take further trips with them and recommend others. Once again thanks for making our trip smooth.

Kameswari's 4 days trip to London

I immensely thank Mr. Prashant Daroch & Mr. Shubham Gupta for having taken keen interest and booked out tickets meticulously, our Hotel bookings were done taking into consideration the closest distance from the station, so that it was within the walking distance, the guided tours and also the pick up from the Airport in Rome, the trip to Amalfi Coast covering Ravello, Positano & Sorrento, guided tour to Pompeii from Naples, the tour to Pisa from Florence were superb. All the inter city transfers were booked by trains & there was never a hitch i.e., transfer from Rome to Naples, Naples to Florence, Florence to Padova. Even the "Hop-on & Hop-off" bus tickets were booked in Rome and it was very convenient way of seeing the place at your convenience & added convenience was that the boarding & ending points were close to our Hotel (within walking distance). The Hotels booked were very good and made our stay comfortable in every way be it food, the cleanliness & a always ambience. Mr. Prashant & Mr. Shubham were always very courteous & did their best to help us out with our itinerary , tickets, hotel booking, tours, train tickets etc and also my invoices were provided. In all our group of eight people has a fabulous tour which will forever remain etched in our memories. A wonderful job by Mr Prashant & Mr. Shubham. The duo really deserves accolades. Thank you for everything. Regards. G Kameswari Mob- 7506195992
