Onkar's 7 days trip to Chittorgarh

I am so glad to inform you that we had a wonderful family time in Rajasthan. A very special thanks to Preeti Sharma ji for arranging everything immaculately. This was our first trip after 3 years so we all were extremely excited. Our trip itinerary was Jaipur - Jodhpur - Jaisalmer - Udaipur. Almost all the hotel accommodations and the travel arrangements were extremely precise and apt, adhering to all our requirements. Preeti ji is especially exceptional as she knows what she is doing and is an expert in it. She gave some valuable suggestions and tips too for our trip. We would love to book another trip through back to holidays soon. Please keep up the good work you are doing. A heartfelt thank you once again for the lovely time we were able to spend because of you. Richa Deshpande. .

Jknairkerla's 5 days trip to Chittorgarh

It was a wonderful trip and excellent support from Mr Chanchal Hadda. Swaroop Vilas Hotel in Udaipur was good. But not really Lakefacing. It overlooks tha connecting portion between Pichola lake and one more lake. This portion is narrow and dirty, Lakefacing is not worth it. Chacha Inn was again a wonderful stay with excellent service and ambience. Thanks

Entire stay was awesome. We were unable to visit city palace at Jaipur due to some local festival. It would be great if the travel agency have such information and inform tourists in advance so that we can plan our day itenary accordingly. Rest all is good

Yashasup's 6 days trip to Chittorgarh

The stay the Jaisalmer desert was very bad. The agent hadn’t made the payment at Jaipur and we had to wait for 1 hour during the checkout. Other than that the other stays were good and had good time with family.
