Our family vacation in Kerala was fully organized by your company. Train journey from Delhi to Ernkulam was long and boring. After reaching the railway station it took more than 5 minutes to find the cab. First driver provided to us was not good and not fluent in Hindi..but second day we got another driver Jayakumar and he was good. Over all Our trip was just ok but not great as expected..it was raining everywhere and we could not enjoy the trip .Our children were not keeping well and the whole trip was just ok.
