I recently availed services from Tirupati Travels. The car on rent was from Chandigarh to Shimla, Kullu-Manali and back to Chandigarh.
Mr. Daljeet Singh was very courteous and helpful in finalising the itinerary. The car provided was clean and well maintained. The driver was very knowledgeable and almost felt like family through the vacation. Extremely safe driving, well behaved and friendly with kids.
I'd recommend Mr.Daljeet as a very safe and right option for travellers who are new to this part of the country.
We felt very safe and in good hands.
