Guest Stories

During our kids' winter vacation, we visited the Jagannath Temple in Puri and planned a sightseeing trip with Mr. Rakesh Kumar. Our itinerary included all the major attractions—Konark Sun Temple, Chandrabhaga Beach, Lingaraj Temple, Dhauli Shanti Stupa, Udayagiri & Khandagiri Caves, and Nandankanan Zoological Park. The car provided was well-maintained, comfortable, and clean. We also received the utmost care and attention throughout our journey, with plenty of time to fully enjoy each location without feeling rushed. Mr. Rakesh’s dedication to providing a smooth and memorable experience made this vacation truly special for our family. Highly recommend his services for anyone looking to explore these wonderful sites!

"This was my first solo trip with my 8-year-old daughter to Puri—a spontaneous weekend getaway to break free from our daily routines. I was initially a bit hesitant to travel alone, but I have to say, Mr. Rakesh Kumar made our experience exceptionally smooth and comfortable. Not only did he guide us expertly through our journey, but he also gave us ample time to savor each spot, especially during our visits to the beautiful Raghurajpur and the serene Tapang. His professionalism and warm approach turned our trip into an unforgettable memory!"

We booked a sightseeing package with Rakesh Ji, keeping Puri as our base. The package included visits to the Konark Sun Temple, Chandrabhaga Beach, Lingaraj Temple, Dhauli Shanti Stupa, Udayagiri & Khandagiri Caves, and Nandankanan Zoological Park. Ours was a family trip to Puri, and we were provided with a clean and well-maintained Ertiga. The driver was polite, punctual, and attentive to our needs, ensuring a comfortable journey for everyone. Rakesh Ji's arrangements allowed us to explore each location at our own pace, making our trip enjoyable and memorable. We felt well taken care of throughout, and I highly recommend their service for a stress-free travel experience.

During our recent visit to Daringbadi, we booked a two-day trip with Rakesh. The car provided was well-maintained, and the driver was knowledgeable about the local spots, making our journey smooth and enjoyable. Since our trip was planned at the last minute, we hadn’t managed to book accommodation in advance. Rakesh went above and beyond, helping us find a comfortable place to stay—even though it wasn’t included in our package. The hospitality and attention to our preferences made us feel genuinely cared for, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend their services for a hassle-free trip!

We booked a trip to Chilika Lake with Rakesh, and it turned out to be an unforgettable experience. The journey from Puri took about two and a half hours, and the road trip was smooth and comfortable. Rakesh was incredibly helpful, even assisting us with booking a boat tour on the lake. We spent almost three hours exploring the scenic periphery and various points of interest in Chilika Lake. We were given ample time at each spot to soak in the beauty and tranquility of the area. Rakesh's attention to detail and commitment to making our experience enjoyable made the trip truly memorable.

We booked a 17-seater Traveller from Rakesh Ji for an airport pick-up and local sightseeing around Puri and Bhubaneswar. The overall service was excellent, and the driver assigned to us was punctual, courteous, and very knowledgeable about the area. He made sure we had a smooth and enjoyable experience throughout our journey. We truly appreciate the attention to detail and professionalism, making our trip comfortable.
