    I booked my Himachal with Kashmir trip from Pretty Planet. I found their package prices & airfares better than online agents. I like their follow ups and services, hotels they offered. They are very attentive to your calls during the trip, which is VERY IMPORTANT. I found Pretty Planet VERY RELIABLE & TRUSTED TOUR OPERATORS. The choice of hotels they offered is brilliant. My Family Loved the Trip and never to forget, the Services rendered by Pretty Planet was beyond my Expectations. I recommend them to all my future trips. ...more
