“Using one transport service for multiple routes saved us from arranging a different cab at every destination. For the Srinagar Airport + City Sightseeing, the driver explained the expected travel time and confirmed the return plan clearly. It was convenient for us that we knew the approximate return time before leaving Srinagar. For friends travelling together, the cab gave us useful flexibility for meals and photo stops. The driver and coordination team kept things simple, which is exactly what we wanted from private transport.”
