    We are all back from a wonderful holiday and but yet, I am not over with it. The hangover remains and I am sure this would remain in my soul lifelong.

    The experience has been out of the world and this was my FIRST SOLO TRIP. I wasn't sure about the trip and how would the trip be managed and taken forward . Whether my decision in taking the trip with WOW was correct or wrong. I can proudly say that if I hadn't taken this decision I would have made the biggest mistake of my life and have had missed this wonderful experience which I would cherish throughout .

    The trip has given me lots of motivations to get fitter in life and more positive. Made wonderful friends for a lifetime and all thanks to wow for the same.

    Kumud you have been a wonderful wow buddy and you have really taken great efforts in holding people together and being a great host and friend.

    This first-time WOW traveler will be a lifelong WOW traveler! I just returned from a fabulous 10-day trip to Morocco! Truly impressed with the organization, coordination and detailed-planning of the trip. The hotels, tours, meals, etc. were very impressive. Made a lot of new friendships for life - where all bounded so well - laughing, sharing stories and enjoying each others' company. Shivangi's leadership as the WOW Buddy is commendable! So many friends want to go on a WOW trip now!

  • Regarding the hotels, what does OR SIMILAR refer to?

    OR SIMILAR means that the hotel booked might be different from the hotel mentioned in the itinerary. 90% of the time we book the hotel that’s mentioned, but under few situations it might differ due to on-the-ground factors. So we pick an alternate hotel, but always in the same class and area of the city.
