Legend India Holidays — Manali tour package

Address:Kullu, Himachal Pradesh
Website:legendindiaholidays.com

My name is rakesh & i am from Kerala .
The incident happened on June 14, our group consists of 10 members including elder ladies .we were fully cheated by this travel agency in every aspects.our journey which started from Delhi.
the package included Delhi - manali Volvo tickets + Manali sight seeing+accommodation for 3 nights.
the main person in contact was Rishi Raj.

Office Address: 101-B, Jaina Tower-II, Distt. Centre, Janak Puri, New-Delhi-85
the total amount was 65000 rupees for 10 person .
i paid advance as 7000 rupees .
After that advance payment he sent me the voucher .i was shocked to see the voucher because some portions were different from the initial Itinerary he provided for the package description.
In the initial Itinerary Day on day 03 is mentioned as Manali -Full day Trip to Rohtang Pass/ Snow Point .
there was no Full day Trip to Rohtang Pass, no manikaran trip etc..i called him for further clarification, he told me simply that these were not included in the package .from here onwards it started cheating us.
the remaining amounts 33, 000 to be paid to the volvo operators while boarding the bus from delhi.
manali sight seeing - 5200
stay in mother tree cottage manali - 19, 800 (4 rooms )
the volvo travel from delhi -manali & return back was so sophisticated as the bus operators switched off air conditioning systems after mid night .they used to switch off & switch on alternatively .(may be for saving fuel).the situation was also for manali - delhi .
after reaching there we met the legend india holidays staff Sanjay in manali bus stand .we were transferred to the hotel.
the hotel which was mentioned was mother tree cottage, when we reached there the hotel staff told the hotel is full & no rooms were reserved in our names.that is a cheap play by the hotel management.
we were transferred to another hotel (simply an out house with no name boards)which is at the end of the kanyal road around 5 kms from manali town, later i understood that the building belongs to the same management itself. we were really strangled there.its not a walkable distance to the town, infact it takes around 20 -25 minutes to reach this hotel from town.
instead of the super deluxe rooms we got rooms full of house flies, no wifi etc..still we managed to adjust as we were trapped.
for the local sight seeing they provided force trax with temporary seats, we 10 people any how adjusted to sit as its a short duration for local sight seeing.
the tour agent Sanjay called me and told me that he could take us to rohtang pass if we pay 10000 rupees for 10 people, we already know these guys were cheating us, but still we really want to see rohtang, so we agreed.
next day he sent us 2 alto taxis for us !!we wondered to see this alto cars, but still we managed & adjusted as we are aware of rohtang permit issues.these alto drivers were all the time hurrying to get back .they refused us to take to Solang valley too.
on day 3 we have full day trip to kullu.the day we were fed up, they sent a Sonalika rhino to take us to kullu, how come accommodate 10 people in that cab.we refused to go and had conversation with the agents in manali as well as in Delhi and complained .around 12'o clock an alto taxi was arranged along with this rhino sonalika.
the most inhuman activity happened on the final day of check out.the return bus timing was at 5 pm .so we have no need to come to the bus stand at the hotel check out time .we thought we can spend 2 - 3 hours in the hotel out skirts ad check out around 2.30 to 3 pm.i called Sanjay and requested to send the cab around 2 pm, but he refused and told me rudely that our check out time is 11 a.m & he would be sending the cab that time.
at last that force trax came around 12.30 to pick us & around 1 pm we were dropped on the Manali bus stand with all the luggages .till 5.30 we were waiting for the bus.we had no lunch as we are unable to move an inch carrying the luggages .
i think these guys must have deliberately done this as a retaliation for the cab issues on the previous day.
we had such a bad experience from this Legend India Holidays.

I've never had such a bad experience with any travel agency ever! They are the reason I'm never going to go with any unknown travel agency ever! Don't fall for their bought reviews on Google or Justdial they're probably their relatives and friends. As we have spoken to other tourists of these frauds and we have heard of equally bad experience with these people.

We had paid 25k extra for a trip to uttrakhand for 5N & 6 days.(we are from Mumbai). We got the itinerary and we assumed since they have charged 25k commission, they would have set the itinerary properly and also we had not travelled to Uttrakhand before so we didn't know how it works. Poor management. We left from Jim Corbett in the morning and reached Haridwar at 5.30. we wanted to attend the aarti which was a part of our itinerary at 6.30pm. But they didn't book our stay at haridwar. And asking us to drive through ghats to Mussoorie after the arti which gets done by 8.. stay hungry till mid night 12..till we reach mussoorie ...risk our lives ..just because they didn't manage the booking. We spoke to Rishi Raj and ram prakash for 2 hours on the road stuck.(our driver said he won't move until he is instructed). We refused to go to Mussoorie as we wanted to attend the arti.. to which they said while returning from mussoorie we will take you to Haridwar aarti. Now(today 27th May) we checked out from the hotel early thinking we are going to haridwar like promised by these frauds scum bags... The owner (RISHIRAJ, RAM PRAKASH the tour manager) are saying we ll have to pay extra to go to Haridwar and Delhi if we reach after 9. ..rishiraj didn't even answe the call...The most pathetic experience.. threatening us ..saying that..haridwar thing won't happen. We are stuck. I would suggest such companies should be blacklisted. Nobody deserves to have a bad experience on their vacation. Coordinating with these people have taken half of our day and so much energy. Instead of haridwar they said they will cover 3 points in Dehradun that also didn't happen..driver and his boss won't take us..everyone wants to extort money.. our entire trip is ruined ..our vacation time energy so much money is wasted. Never ever go through this tour agency..if anyone one wants, pls contact me i ll share proofs and call recording of these arrogant and senseless goons. And how they talk once they have taken money from you.

If you do not want to get bullied and left alone the half way or pay extra for everything stil not get good services, please go for some other travel agents. Book on your own and go that will be more reasonable and not life threatening/risking.

we are planning to the take the same plan as yours, is it really that bad ??
My name is Anam and i am from Mumbai
I along with my 4 friends had booked our trip to Manali through
Legend India Holidays
Our trip was exactly like we were informed
Our driver Mr.Ram was extremely humble and patient and tried to cover as many destinations he could which were mentioned
And also which were not mentioned in the itinerary
My tour manager Mr.Rishi Raj Kashyap also made sure that our trip was exactly like it was mentioned in the itinerary
Mr.Rishi even asked us to pay the tour amount on last day of our trip Only if satisfied with the tour
We are really thankful for this memorable trip
And would also suggest everyone to go through Legend India Holidays
Looking forward for our next trip through Legend

Sorry Above their is one Spelling Mistake .

***Thanks Komal .. :)
As per my personal experience, Legend India Holidays created the ease of booking travel packages with some additional discounts! Getting discounts in real is not possible for accommodations. The only thing LIH should improve is their customer service which is the blunder and they hardly attend calls once I had to wait 10-15 minutes to get connected with customer support, but I ignored due to their other services. They must improve only this part nothing else.
Thank you so much for making my tour memorable of Kerala package and i am so happy regarding Legend India Holidays services and one of the person Mr. Himanshu Sethi, he is very honest and good behavior person and he is all time supporting during the tour and one more thing operation team ( Mr Sumit Ruhal ) was outstanding work.
finally i am so happy with Legend India Holidays services ...

thank you Legend India Holidays Team.

Thanks legend India holiday team for making our trip to manali most comfortable n as per planned.looking forward for our next trip through your team...👍
