Lake Victoria Houseboat , Srinagar Houseboat

All the hotels were extremely comfortable with all the amenities. Food provided by hotel was superb. Food was much better than the restaurants around. The driver alloted was really nice. He told us to trust him and just enjoy and we did the same. He knew the places very well. He adviced great adventures and places. He was a very good photographer as well. Yugal is an extremely experienced travel buddy. He provided us the best package and was always available on call. It was because of him only we were able to make safe plans for Kashmir. Now I know that whenever I will be planning a trip to anywhere....Yugal and Lazyyatra are the ones to rely on. Overall the honeymoon was just like a dream come true with all the luxuries and experiences in my budget.

Vishal and his team did a great job on planning the tour for us to Kashmir. He picked up the right places for the time we had. He also picked up right hotels for us and took care of the driver/cab etc. He also helped us understand what is must do/ good to do and avoid in Kashmir. Despite we visited Kashmir for first time, the trip planned by Vishal made us feel comfortable and helped us by providing all the necessary details required to make the trip and amazing experience! I would anyday go for a trip planned by Vishal and his team again :)

Its a good experience , hotel stays are good , we enjoy a lot. Explore places which are included in our itenary.

All hotels food taste are mouthwatering , we are happy with hotel services
We just want to highlight one point related to Pahalgam Hotel Green heights
Food taste can be improved much better.

Driver (Nissar) is also good and supportive.

Thanks Vishal for such a good arrangements.

This was my third trips with Lazyatra and each time you exceeded my expectations. It was hassle-free and you accommodated last minute change due to flight cancellation. I enjoyed my vacation without worrying about any arrangement.
The hotels were approachable and on prime location and driver was humble and trustable.

Thanks Vishal and Team, keep doing awesome work!!!

First hotel Ladakh Himalayan retreat was nice, food options were also great and airport pickup on day one also happened on time.
Second hotel was average as it was a camp only, there were plenty of hotels too there which we got to know after reaching there
Night at Pangong went horrible for me as I felt so much breathlessness as if I will die that night. Thankfully camp owner had oxygen cylinder so used for an hour that but I guess this recommendation should have come from travel planner itself so that we could have been better prepared.
Third hotel Utpala was great in terms of stay but very bad in terms of food as they server only one vegetable in dinner and only poha+sandwich in breakfast. Could have been much better like we got in first hotel.
Travel from leh to Kargil via road was a mistake as after reaching Kargil, we were told that we will have to leave by 6am next morning because of some road travel guidelines so we slept early rather than visiting things in the evening in Kargil and after we checked out in the morning, we were told to stop at 2 check post while on the way from Kargil to Srinagar and each time we had to stay for 2hr-2hr. Along with that, after traveling for around 100km from Kargil, somewhere in the mid, there was road construction work going on so we again had to stop there for 2hr again.
basically it became a 12 hour travel and that too on a pretty bad road. so we reached Srinagar late night and thus couldn't roam there too.
Ideally people should travel from leh to Srinagar via flight as it will be even cheaper option, time saving plus quite comfortable. Our last 3 days wasted mostly in lengthy travel.
In a summary, people should be told to carry oxygen cylinder in Pangong and they should be told about better travel route from leh to Srinagar (if they want to prefer a convenient option) because roads are soooo bad between Kargil to Srinagar

1. Our stay was really good everywhere and food was also manageable (though, we found pahal gaon hotel’s food as one of the best in our trip)

2. Both drivers were really good but 2nd one was very co-operative and easy going

3. Rinki was very co-operative and approachable as whatever issues we had she resolved them quickly. She also made us understand the best package deal for us.

4. Definitely, we will book with lazyyatra again. Our experience was good

5. One of the best thrilling trip of our life

Experience is very good,
a. hotels are Very good, but not best. Since cost is reasonable, the hotels in this cost are acceptable.
b. Driver(Zakir) is good,
c. SPOC is reachable and good. But SPOC(Sumaira) could have been bit more helpful by pro-actively helping us to to know and plan our extra expenses. Since SPOC did not tell about extra expenses, we have almost spend double the amount on Extra activities like Skying, local Sight seeing in Gulmarg and Sonmarg, Golkonda ride etc.
d. Travel consultant(Vishal) was excellent in helping us and guiding us for planning.

TRIP was awesome. it was fresh snowfall during our visit make our trip mesmerizing. Stay at hotels are also very good. Overall experience life time experience and stay Forever in our hearts. Thanks to all the people of Lazy yatra who made this trip mesmerizing.

How was your stay in hotels and food there?
The stay at hotel in Srinagar was wonderful. The food at Victory hotel was very tasty and the staff was also very nice and friendly.
The Grand lord hotel at Pahalgam was ok since the photos were deceiving and it was not up to the mark in regards of hygiene. Food again was good and staff was generous.
The Welcome hotel at gulmarg was good and stay was great. The location was very near to gandola ride and staff was very helpful and friendly. The food was ok.
The lake victoria HB was a great experience but everything came downhill once we sat for our meal. The food was very bad and the staff was very sarcastic and rude. We told him that food was not upto the mark and he said that i told the cook but cook said that if they didnt like the food how come they are eating so much. At breakfast also i asked him to get me some bread toast and he said how many 15-20 in a very sarcastic way. The shikara ride from the hotel to ghat was also not great as they started asking for money. Even the HB staff cut his own tip without asking and returned our money. HB was great but food, staff and everything was very horrible.
How was the driver with sight seeing and every thing?
Driver was great and was very helpful. Only feedback is he was not accommodating when it came to our luggage. We were 6 people and had 9 suitcases and he not stop commented on the same. If we ask him to stop for shopping he would say where u will put it there is no space. Hire another cab for airport.

How was Rinki as your travel agent with your package?
Rinki was very helpful in whole trip. She was readily available and did a great job.

If you got a chance would be again book with Lazyatra ?
Ofcourse, this was our second trip from lazy yatra but just want to
Give a small feedback to share some good hotels where food and stay are great. Also, the drivers should b accommodating and not very rigid. We have faced driver issues in both our trips.

The drivers who accompanied us from Srinagar to Leh and for the entire Leh trip were very good and impressive. Special mention of Karma who was the driver in Leh. He was exceptional and very good.
Well planned and organised itinerary, with good transport facilities arranged. Except for the Lake Victoria house boat which was the worst house boat ever seen and the hotel in Srinagar which was not up to the mark of a 3 star, rest were good. The hotel in Leh specially Grand Ladakh and Upala and Kargil were very good with good hospitality. Organic Inn and Nubra had plenty of empty rooms don't know why they charged Rs.2000/- for a date change. Overall satisfied with the trip.

We are thankful for Akhil, who was in constant Touch with us.
Made us comfortable with his constant communication over calls.

Few changes I would like to suggest.
1 Boat House stay In Victoria, Breakfast was not so great.
2. We missed few places Like Lal chowk and Regal Tower. Driver could have been Much more Proactive.
