March, 2025.
My trip went really well. The management of the trip was absolutrly perfect. The hotels were great, the plan was good, and the team was in regular contact with me during the tour, which gave me peace of mind. Overall, it all went well.
The only thing that bothered me was the time alloted in Gulmarg. I was alloted only half day in Gulmarg, which wasnt sufficient.
The highlight of the trip was the driver - Adil. You spend a long time with your driver and having a good (or bad) driver makes a lot of difference. Adil went above and beyond to accommodate me in any way possible. Gave that personal touch in every aspect of the travel. Very professional and kept guiding me where possible.
Overall a great trip and I would surely recommend my friends and family. And personal thanks to Nity (operations team) for being there with me throughout the trip. Gave me that comfort and assurance I needed.
Thanks and all the best to the team.
