We a group of 17 members travelled few days back, for about one week. The receiving was good, and the hotel bookings were apt with good hospitality, the driver was very friendly though we had a communication problem, he was very alert while driving in ghat roads, and made our trip memorable. And now we are back safe and we recommend anyone to go with yatri travels. The only problem is with the tempo traveller, seating is very congested, and uncomfortable. Overall this travel is genuine.
