Me and my husband had an amazing trip in Australia in September 2026. Pick your trail booked all hotels and activities and even made sure the visa application procedure was smooth. The hotels we stayed at were right in the centre of the city (Sydney and Melbourne) from where we could access all the public transportation and even the pick up spots for all the activities were nearby. One activity provider cancelled the activity at the last moment and PYT team booked the same activity from another activity provider on the spot as per our convenience. I would definitely recommend booking your trips through PYT for comfort and convenience at a reasonable cost.Rohini J, Trip to Australia

We recently completed our Australia trip planned through Pickyourtrail. While we enjoyed the destination, there were several areas where better guidance and planning would have made our experience much smoother: 1. Whale-Watching Booking The whale-watching company booked for us operated smaller boats, which are more likely to be affected by weather conditions. Our trip was impacted because of this. It would be better to recommend operators with larger vessels, as they can generally operate despite minor weather changes. 2. Melbourne Accommodation The hotel rooms booked for us in Melbourne were extremely small and uncomfortable for a family. Better hotel options, particularly those suitable for families travelling with children, should have been suggested. 3. Free Attractions in Melbourne Melbourne has several places that can be explored without purchasing tickets, but these were not included in our itinerary. For example, the free City Circle Tram, Route 35, takes tourists around many of Melbournes heritage buildings and major attractions. Information like this would have helped us explore the city better and manage our expenses. 4. Car-Seat Requirements Families travelling with children up to seven years old should be informed in advance about child-seat requirements while using taxis or ride-hailing services in Sydney and Melbourne. We were unaware of this and faced considerable inconvenience. This is essential information and should form part of the pre-travel guidance. 5. Cairns Airport Transfers In Cairns, the arranged taxi service could not provide a vehicle large enough for our family and luggage. For both transfers, we had to take two separate taxis, which was inconvenient and should have been anticipated during the planning stage. 6. Local Transport Guidance Basic information about public transport should be included in every itinerary. For example: - Sydney uses the Opal card for trains, buses, ferries and light rail. - Melbourne uses the myki card, although it is not required within the Free Tram Zone. Such information would help travellers use public transport confidently and avoid unnecessary spending on taxis. Overall, the itinerary covered the main destinations, but it lacked practical, family-specific guidance. Since we were travelling with a young child and an elderly family member, details regarding suitable accommodation, vehicle capacity, car-seat requirements, weather-dependent activities and local transportation should have been planned and communicated more carefully. I hope this feedback is taken constructively and helps Pickyourtrail improve the travel experience for future families. Over all we had a great time! Rishi Sharma and surya gave enough time to us at planning stage and understanding the need of the families. While on trip Gaurav was continuously in touch and did the needful as and when requested. Pick your trail team is very helpful and approachable.

Pickyourtrail was the best thing that happened to us this year.. it was such a pleasure to have them coordinate our tour to Australia..Being frequent travellers, myself and my family had a hussle free vacation.. Even though it was a last minute plan from our end, they made sure everything was ready for us, from beginning till the last day of our tour. Their team did a splendid job indeed.. We loved Srishty a lot.. She made sure we were on board with them from the 1st call, and coordinated throughout.. She was very easy to approach and responded so promptly always.. Srishty is an asset to your team.. Special thanks to Chandramouli and Gaurav who supported us throughout. When we were in Australia, they followed up so closely, we didnt have to fret even once..As for the trip, it was beautifully customised and we were able to enjoy everything.. We loved the leisure time we got, due to their well organised tour plan.. Thanks for the ideal vacation..Looking forward for more such vacations guys..

Had a super awesome trip to Australia, all planned and booked through Pickyourtrail. The 11 days was an unforgettable experience for us, made possible by the great peeps at PYT. The visa process and overall booking experience was hassle free and super easy. Would recommend PYT to anyone wishing to have a great experience. Suggestion for improvement: The app suggested some good tips like the different plug point in Australia that helped us prepare for it. Wouldve been great if the app suggested a low exchange rate credit card for use internationally.

The best friends trip to Australia was amazing. We are very happy with your service - right from the choice of destination, planning day wise itinerary, booking hotels and tours, visa application and also the prompt response from your team 24*7 during the trip. The airlines chosen was one of the best. The hotel stay at Sheraton Melbourne and Ibis Sydney were a great experience. All the tour guides / operators provided for day tours were knowledgeable, courteous and friendly. All the pickups and drops to and fro from the airport were dot on time. Overall an awesome experience with PYT. Special mention of Aadhil, Manoj and Rinchen who have made this happen for us. Keep up the good work and we hope to book more memories through you in the future.
