“The cab arrangement was simple, with the pickup point, driver details, and route shared before travel. The Srinagar–Gulmarg Cab booking worked well because the pickup timing and route were discussed in advance. It saved time that the next pickup time was shared before the evening ended. The private vehicle worked well for our group because reasonable stops could be coordinated directly with the driver. Overall, the cab experience was smooth and removed a lot of uncertainty from our daily travel planning.”
