We recently completed a 7-day trip booked for thailand through PickYourTrail, and overall it was a great experience. The itinerary was well planned, hotels were comfortable, and airport transfers were smooth. Their support team was responsive whenever we had questions. The trip was mostly hassle-free and enjoyable. A few activities felt a little rushed, but overall everything was managed professionally. I would definitely recommend PickYourTrail for a well-organized and stress-free vacation.Santhosh Kumar, Trip to Thailand

10/10 A Truly Wholesome Thailand Trip with PickYourTrail! We had an amazing, budget-friendly trip to Thailand with PickYourTrail, and it was absolutely worth it. From the planning stage itself, the coordination was excellent. A special thanks to Riya, who helped us plan the trip so well and patiently guided us through every detail. She kept us informed about all the necessary things to do before traveling and provided a detailed itinerary, which made the entire journey stress-free. The team was always available to answer our queries, no matter the time. All the pickups and drop-offs in Thailand were very smooth and perfectly on time, which made traveling between places extremely comfortable. Since we were traveling with a toddler, PickYourTrail thoughtfully arranged a kid-friendly itinerary based on our preferences, which we really appreciated. The rooms selected were budget-friendly yet truly value for money, comfortable and well-chosen. A big thank you to Divya as well, who stayed in touch during the trip and regularly checked if everything was going smoothly. That level of care and coordination made us feel very supported throughout our journey. Overall, this was a wonderfully planned and wholesome trip. We are extremely happy with PickYourTrails service and professionalism. Best trip ever and were definitely looking forward to traveling with PickYourTrail again.

Imagine youve always thought of your dream holiday and then it happens almost magically. Thats how we felt as a family after booking our Bangkok and Hua Hin trip with Pickyourtrails. Right from the very first interaction, the team, especially Bhavna, was on the ball, happily accommodating our changes to the itinerary. Once we booked our holiday, we were briefed on every small aspect by Revanth who continued to be in touch even when we were in Thailand, checking daily whether we were satisfied with the arrangements. And satisfied we were, for sure. Right from the pick-ups and drops to the superb arrangements for the river cruise dinner, we were left spellbound. If youre looking to customise your holiday and want a value package, I would recommend Pickyourtrails wholeheartedly.
