Thank You Trip Factory!!! We had an amazing trip to Kerala!! Vanishree K M you were indeed of great help to us through out planning and organizing this trip. I really appreciate your patience. Thank you for being a wonderful guide and friend.

Well organized trip

I wish to highly recommend TripFactory, an excellent travel agency and the travel consultant Kusum Mili who made it a memorable one for me and my better half

Lifetime experience to walk around the snow and to see the snowfall. The hotels provided had delicious foods and very helpful staff. These four days were my lifetime dreams since I was expecting such weather since childhood. Tripfactory made this happen in real. I am very thankful for arranging such a memorable trip.

I expect more such type of good and economical packages going forward.

Thank you very much again.

Hi

Trip to Andaman and Nicobar islands

Thanks for providing such a wonderful experience and its very good decision for selecting you people as trip assitance. Im really surprised the way they make arrangements so faster .We actually travelled in the month of nov but it takes some time for me to write a review due to other travels and work .Also the real value of tripfactory understood when my colleagues booked a wayanad tour with a worst tour package company called Rippleholidays for office tour such a pathetic situation we faced with them.That time i realized how tripfactory treated us and it such a big mistake for not taking tripfactory for kerala tour since its planned by office team (nothing we can do ).I strongly recommend tripfactory for my friends for sure.

Thanks a lot to shiva .Such a friendly and cool guy.Did a awesome job .Keep rocking shiva who made all arrangements in a swift.Thanks to all the ones who made it nostalgic and memorable

thank you for working with us prior to the trip in terms of the package options, pricing, revisiting the sight seeing places, booking, payment, confirmation, and sharing the local points of contact.. this continuous engagement helped build a trust with TripFactory..

the welcome at Thailand was great, we met the person at Gate 10 as suggested, and she immediately handed us a local sim card, which we hadn’t expected!
we had a Toyota Camry to pick us up and take us to Pattaya, but unfortunately got dropped off at the wrong hotel, and used Google maps to walk to the right one which was a kilometre away..
the initial hiccup was when the hotel folks did not let us check in till 2 PM, din't give us three beds as promised, and breakfast was restricted to two people.. but after that, things got better, and it was only good times, and awesome memories..

we were a road away from the beach, and could walk whenever we wanted to, the hotel being in the heart of Pattaya city, we could go shopping on our own free will..

the cab guys for the Alcazar show, coral island and other sight seeing places promptly showed up at the hotel on time, and the experience was seamless..

the local numbers given were reachable at all times and quite helpful with our queries..
thanks to TripFactory, we even had complimentary lunch at an Indian restaurant in Thailand!
we liked all the sight seeing places like the safari, city tour and coral island, also the itinerary was well planned, giving us enough time for ourselves to explore the city..

overall, it was a wonderful trip, and we would like to thank Manju and the TripFactory for enabling the great experience

Trip to Andaman Islands.
The overall experience is a professional handling and we were satisfied with our journey. Mr Akshith Nithin at Tripfactory was informative and helpful with travel arrangements prior to the journey. The local representative at Port Blair, Mr Abinash, who co-ordinated the journey with other representatives, did a very good job and we felt very well taken care of. He was very attentive and had a pleasant as well as professional approach. Taxis, speedboat to Havelock Island and the flight from Chennai with Spice Jet went very smoothe and was totally reliable.

The only let-down were to of the three hotels that we stayed in. The only one that delivered according to standard (****) was Sea Shell in Port Blair, which levelled our expectations. However the other two hotels had lots of issues and were far from the four stars that they want guests to believe.

Peerless Sarovar Portico in Port Blair was far away from the city of Portugal Blair and there is nothing outside the property apart from a lovely beach...not swimable though due to crocodiles. Restaurant is excellent although slightly pricy. The room is ok, more of a 3 star standard, basic but with a nice balcony. Shower curtain dirty, otherwise was cleaning satisfactory. The check-in was not welcoming, but the following day the hospitality was better, due to change of staff. To sum it up: a 3 star property with a good restaurant and a scenic view.

Symphony Palms Beach Resort at Havelock Island was a rather bad choice in relation to price, category and expectations. Lots of issues here. Accommodation consisted of large cottages,although rather dull and gloomy inside. A vivid animal life in the washroom consisted of lizards, mosquitoes and a giant cockroach. Hot water had to be ordered in buckets (½ hour waiting time), which was a minor problem, but you had to plan your activities. Service was slow ore sometimes non-existent. Breakfast buffet with a reasonable variety of items, however with a low quality; canned (low budget and artificial) fruit juices, (sometimes) cold food items, and fairly tasteless. Tourists allowed to drive with motorbikes and scoters on the narrow pavement leading to the cottages was a hazard as well as a peace eliminating appearance. Food in restaurant on the costly side, but good alternatives on the road outside.

Hi All,

It was over all very good trip and i thank Praveen and tripFactory for giving such nice experience.

Initially while i was booking in tripFactory there were some bad comments were there in that some are true some are false.

1) Till booking we get call from TripFactory but after full payments we need to try to catch them for information.
2) Last day of my traveling got the pickup details. It would have good if you provide all details a week before.
3) Please be response to the users for there quires and send some regular updates on destination weather and place information.

But here good part is after reaching the Andaman we got Trip Coordinator as Abhishek (http://andamanholidaydreams.com/) was very good and professional person he has explained all the places and pickups and all on time.

In Havlock Praveen was our driver he too was very professional and co-operative person.

Overall it was very good place to visit and dont miss the scuba diving.

Thanks,
Gururaj

I am totally satisfied with service of Trip factory representatives. I had a nice trip with my friends.
Really appreciate for your service and availability at any time for answering our queries.

The trip to Andaman and Nicobar was very good. it was overall a very good experience with amazing planning and co-ordination starting right from our trip adviser sridhar to our trip co ordinators - avinash at port blair, vijay at neil island and mansoor (& his dad) at havelock island.
It was a brilliant trip where the hotels booked were also great and we had on time cab transfers to everywhere. Helpful people and I am very happy with the service provided by trip advisor.

Don't know how and where to start with but before I do, I wish to highly recommend TripFactory, an excellent travel agency and the travel consultant Nishan who made it a memorable one for me and my family, especially my 18 months infant who loved it and enjoyed every bit of it. Now before you start doubting on me let me clarify, I am just a traveler like you and not that one of them from the TripFactory marketing team :) Well you may feel so after reading this review but let me emphasize it again, I am just a TRAVELLER who loves to see different places like you.

In December I traveled with my family through Rajasthan, on a customized tour arranged by Nishan. In the planning stages he communicated promptly and clearly and took a flexible approach in ensuring that our wishes were included in the itinerary.

The whole trip was flawless, thanks largely to his provision of a well-appointed car and marvelous driver, whose manner, driving skills, courteousness and care of us could not be faulted. We agreed that the journey was extremely well organized; Infact it was hassle free. Further, the costs were reasonable and represented very good value for money. Looking back now, there is nothing I would change, I would rather add few.

*******************************************************************************************************************************
• 1st we went to Jaipur which was the stronghold of a clan of rulers whose three hill forts and series of palaces in the city are important attractions. Known as the Pink City because of the color of the stone used exclusively in the walled city, Jaipur's bazaars sell embroidered leather shoes, blue pottery, tie and dye scarves and other exotic wares. Western Rajasthan itself forms a convenient circuit, in the heart of the Thar Desert which has shaped its history, lifestyles and architecture.
• Next we went to Jodhpur "The Sun City" was founded by Rao Jodha, a chief of the Rathore clan, in 1459. It is named after him only. Jodhpur in Rajasthan, India was previously known as Marwar. Jodhpur is the second largest city in Rajasthan. It is divided into two parts - the old city and the new city. The old city is separated by a 10 km long wall surrounding it. Also, it has eight Gates leading out of it. The new city is outside the walled city. Jodhpur is a very popular tourist destination. The landscape is scenic and mesmerizing. Jodhpur city has many beautiful palaces and forts such as Mehrangarh Fort, Jaswant Thada, Umaid Bhavan Palace, Government Museum and Rai Ka Bagh Palace. The city is known as the "Sun City" because of its bright and sunny weather throughout the year.
• Atlast we went to "The Jaisalmer city", it is a prominent educational as well as a cultural hub in the region and regularly showcases the vivid cultural aspects of Rajasthan. Among others, it includes folk dances as well as semi-classical and folk music. The city is easily accessible and people are warm and welcoming. In spite of harsh living conditions, Rajasthani people are known for their warm hospitality all over. So come to Jaisalmer and enjoy the traditional rhetoric of 'padharo mahare desh' (welcome to our lands).
*******************************************************************************************************************************
It is impossible to choose from so many wonderful experiences. The Rajasthan palaces and forts were stunning in their scale and it was amazing to stay in one of the best heritage properties out there. We had many memorable and exciting experiences from this trip. Some of the local villages we visited were fantastic in terms of getting a glimpse of rural life in Rajasthan.

One advice: When you go to Jaisalmer, Though it was a well-planned itinerary covering a wide range of cultural and leisure activities. One should spend a day in Sam Sand Dunes which is approximately 50kms away from the Jaisalmer City where you can enjoy Camel Safari, Jeep Safari and Folk Music & Dance etc.

I did miss few places but you can make it guys, Kuldhara (an abandoned village), which is 18km away from the Jaisalmer city. Tanot and Longewala, Two villages on the Jaisalmer border but if you are traveling with your family you need 1-1 day each to go there as these are in two different directions. Driving/Riding freaks – You guys can make it both in one single day :)

• PLEASE DO NOT PLAN TO SPEND A NIGHT in KULDHARA. Read/Google about it before you do so.

Minor Problem: We were taken to some 'factory outlets' or Government owned handicraft outlets per say, They were extremely expensive. It's not in the package but the city guide would take you there for sure :) Think carefully before buying from these places. It is better to wander through the shops and markets to check out prices, quality and choice.

--> Overall trip was FANTASTIC, That's the right word :) So, Don't hesitate to book. Just go! It was amazing. Peace up folks.

Dear Tripfactory Team,

Thank you for making my Andaman Trip wonderful. Specially Ms.Mary Avila for nice arrangements.
Mr.Avinash at Portblair helped us a lot. Due to bad weather we could not make it to Elephanta Beach but how ever Mr.Avinash arranged a seperate boat for us to visit Norbay which was not part of the trip. Thank you Mr.Avinash.
I recommend Tripfactory to My friends.

Only suggestion is that please make Elephanata Beach visit on the First day itself as it is depending on the weather, so that if the weather is not good they can try nex day.

Thank you for making my trip with family so wonderful.

Thanks & Regards,

Irappa Chougala

This is 3rd travel package that Mr Semwal has booked for my family. This time it was for 6 of us, in Hong Kong and Macau. He takes time to understand our preferences and works within our budget. Their tour partners in HK and Macau were very professional. Considering that this was very busy New Year Eve season - it was amazing that he arranged everything with so much precision.

It has been a pleasurable experience right from the time we started exploring our vacation options with Trip Factory to returning back home from the trip. Yasmin understood my requirements, budget and the type of places we were interested in and planned the trip accordingly. She also gave a few very valuable suggestions.
The travel consultant does have a good amount of knowledge about the destinations, (something which I realized once I reached there) and does give valuable additions and ad-dons to the itinerary.
We had chosen the Andaman Islands for our Family vacation and thanks to Trip Factory and Yasmin we had a hassle free and great experience. Andaman being a remote location where we had no prior knowledge about the logistics, we depended a lot on Trip Factory and always found drivers waiting, cars in good conditions, hotels room with all our special requests met, pre booked tickets to both the attractions and ferries and also a lot of tips and tricks from the local guides assigned.
We solely focused on the fun bit of things while everything else was taken care of.

First of all I would like to thank Shahul for helping me plan my first ever trip to southern part of India.

Overall the experience was good except few bad events.

I'll list down some highlights (good & bad)

1) First day at Hotel Great escapes in Munnar was a horrible experience. There was no water in the bathroom and even after repeated escalations to the management, it was not fixed but instead (after 3 hours of wait) we were given two buckets of water, which isn't an expectation from a 3 star rating hotel.
Moreover the food at the hotel was not up to standard.

** Will avoid this hotel if I ever plan to visit Munnar again **

2) After not so good experience at Munnar, our expectations from this trip were low, but then we checked in to Sterling Hotel in Thekkady. We were greeted with a welcome drink. The staff, the ambience, the location, everything was just perfect about the hotel.
This hotel has a swimming pool, cottage room gives a view of Periyar forest from the window.
Food was good as well.

** I highly recommend this hotel **

Periyar lake boat is a good experience but don't expect to see any wild animals. We spotted few birds only.
We later visited Kathakali and marshal art shows which were good.


3) Third destination was Alleppy and we were looking forward for Houseboat stay in Backwaters, as we heard lots of good things about it.
Unfortunately, it was not at all like what we heard.
Houseboat runs for only 2-3 hours and then they park it in the parking area.
Now, you are left in a standing boat with uncomfortable beds where it is difficult to choose which is worse, Ambience or Food.
Overall, it was a struggle to pass that day.

** My suggestion, Do not go for houseboat, rather book a hotel near backwaters and take a Shikara ride of 2-3 hours **

4) Last but the most awaited destination was Kovalam Beach.
We checked in to Sagara beach resort.
You get the beach view from hotel and the beach is 10 minutes walk from the hotel.
Hotel has spacious rooms with all basic amenities for a comfortable stay.

We went for a boat ride to see Golden sand beach and Arabian sea.

Overall Kovalam stay was very good.

Hope this will help you to suggest hotels/sightseeing to your customers for similar trip.

Regards,
Nitin

Very well organised. coordination done by fouzia. and staff at prt blair abhishek, me. khan at havelock island was nice

resorts selected were pretty neat.
All in all it was a gud exp.

Thanks
prashanth and deepthi

I had booked Rajasthan trip from Dec 21st to Jan 1st covering Jaipur, Udaipur, Ajmer, Pushkar, Mt Abu, Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner.
Bangalore->Delhi->Rajasthan->Delhi->Bangalore is the route I opted. The entire trip was completed without any hassles. The Etios car that picked us up from Delhi airport was with us till it dropped us back at Delhi airport. The driver Mukesh was also very co-operative.
Vijay G N supported a lot with the various itenary changes before finalizing the above. The hotels booked were also pretty decent. I would surely recommend TripFactory for those who are looking for an enjoyable package tour.

Looking forward to book my next vacation through TripFactory.

Overall trip is well organised but allepaye hotel AJ is not good.Need to provide alternative hotel in allaepaye.
Faced some communication problem with driver but manageable.

Hi Sufiya,

Everything had been arranged perfectly and went smoothly. The accommodation was very comfortable.

The only problem came on the last day when we got to know that we had a connecting flight to Delhi as we had already informed you that we don't need any connecting flights. But still thanks for all the assistance given to make this a memorable holiday.

I will be planning another holiday will contact you soon. Thanks.

Overall trip experience was good. I liked the way you planned whole trip - covered almost all places and also got enough time to take rest.
