What Travelers Say About Our Malaysia Trips

Read on to find out why our customers love us!

    Nidhi's 7 days trip to Malaysia

    Overall, our trip was very well organized and we appreciate the efforts of the travel agent in arranging the hotels, transportation, and sightseeing smoothly. We would just like to share one small suggestion for improvement. We are a pure vegetarian family, and my mother also avoids onion and garlic. While traveling in a foreign country, finding such food options can be challenging. The itinerary was quite tight, and on several days we did not have enough time to arrange lunch that met our dietary requirements. It would be very helpful if future itineraries could include a short lunch break or suggestions for nearby vegetarian-friendly restaurants along the route. Additionally, if travelers identify a suitable place nearby, allowing an extra 30–40 minutes would make the experience more comfortable. Apart from this, we had a very nice trip and appreciate the overall arrangements.

    Tanya's 6 days trip to Malaysia

    Had booked my vacation with Chill Safar and had an amazing experience. From airport transfers to having all the tickets handy, we did not experience any waiting or delays and the whole experience was super smooth. Also, you can customize the itinerary as per your convenience. Tushar from their team was in contact with us from day one and was extremely polite, patient and responsive. He solved all our queries and gave us a reasonable quote with discounts. I had previously travelled with other companies as well but had faces issues in the past, however, there were no hiccups while travelling with Chillsafar. I highly recommend these for all your travel plans!
