My fourth and recently concluded trip was to “Central Asia” covering three countries, viz., Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan for a total duration of 17 days commencing from 5th of June’24 . The tour was amazing with the historical and architectural wonder of Uzbekistan in Taskhent, Bukhara and Samarkand….. abundant natural treasures in Kyrgyzstan, the sublime beauty of Song Kul, Issyk Kul and karakol….. last but not the least, the awesome natural beauty of Kazakhstan in Almaty and Shymbalak.
Enjoyed every bit of the tour from Day 1 with our tour leader Mr.Pradip Mahapatra’s tremendous energy and support in every step and 24×7 backend support of Ms. Rupa De Roy from controlling office @Kolkata
Thank you Travel Ark… Wish you all the best 👍👍👍
My third trip with Travel Ark was in Indonesia covering Bali and Borobudur temple @Java from 26th October ’23 to 3rd November ’23 . As always, Pradip & Rupa took extreme care in itinerary selection, hotel location, comfortable transfer and most importantly in serving delicious local cuisine.
We are extremely satisfied with the personal touch of “Travel Ark”.
My second tour with Travel Ark is to Cambodia & Vietnam commenced on 3rd February ’23. The tour itinerary is extremely well planned and well executed. We have been provided with best accomodation and excellent local cuisine . On behalf of Travel Ark, Mr. Pradip Mahapatra & Mrs. Rupa De Roy have taken personal care for the comfort of all the travellers, almost all of whom are senior citizens . This has been a very nice experience for me to travel with them . Thanks to them and I would surely like to travel with Travel Ark once again in near future.
I have travelled with Travel Ark to Ladakh in June ‘ 22 , a wonderful memory which will be cherished throughout my life. The trip was so well organised that we enjoyed it to the fullest. I eagerly look forward to our future tour with Travel Ark under the able leadership of Mr. Pradip Mahapatra.
Thanks to Travel Ark.
Me and my wife recently travelled to Turkey and Greece with Travel Ark. If i sum up my experience in a word, it was beyond what i ever dreamt of, it was SPECTACULAR!!!!!
The entire tour was so meticulously planned. Both Pradip and Rupa had attention to every minute details of everyone.
I have previously travelled with other agency,but what sets them apart is the personal touch and personal attention they give for everyone. I will give an example, if you are travelling with a travel company the food provided would be either veg and non- veg based on preference but the course would be same for all.
Here individual people were asked what they would like to have and separate courses for everyone was ordered., its not a single instance there are many more to quote and the list would go on and on.
Both of us ( me and my wife) are delighted , extremely happy , content after travelling with Travel Ark.
If there’s another chance to travel abroad again, i cannot think of anyone else other than Travel Ark.
I would like to thank Pradip and his team from the bottom of my heart.
Special thanks also to Abhijit (Rupa’s husband) for helping us thoroughly in Greece. From a Super elated, satisfied customer.
I would strongly recommend if you want to have the best of experience please do choose them.i promise you Won’t regret ever.
I recently returned from an incredible trip to Ladakh, organized by Travel Ark and I couldn’t be more impressed. Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident. The itinerary was well-planned and finalised after taking our inputs hence offering a perfect balance of breathtaking landscapes, cultural experiences, and adventures.The accommodations were comfortable and well-chosen.The transportation and our captain was reliable and making our long journey comfortable,smooth and enjoyable.
One of the highlights was the personalized service. Pradip da from Travel Ark was always available to address any concerns and went out of their way to ensure we had an unforgettable experience.
This trip was a dream come true, and I look forward to traveling with them again.
We went to Combodia & Vietnam trip for 12 days in December’2023. We were 9 people in our group. Travel Ark planned our tour in such a way that we experienced the best on each day. We went 4 places all together, at every where tourist guide was waiting for us at airport. In the full trip on each day the car along with the guide reached before the time always. All the guides were friendly and cooperative.
We had senior citizens and kids in our group, the accommodation & planning of whole trip was very comfortable for all of us. I also want to mention about food experience. We got different types of local cuisine and international cuisine to explore.
Thank you Ms. Rupa and Mr. Pradeep for making our Holiday one of the best experience ever.
It’s mind blowing
Though I traveled lot of countries with different travel companies I never seen such a lion heart agent, while giving the facility travel ark in un comparable. Next year onwards any trip from travel ark I don’t want to miss. Pradeep and Roopa are amazing and their service is best of the best
We had a once in a lifetime experience travelling with Travel Ark. The beauty of Ladakh gained a new dimension thanks to their expertise and perfect planning. There was nothing more we could ask for and we did not have to worry about anything at all; everything was wonderfully arranged by Travel Ark. The accommodations, vehicle and food were excellent. Ladakh needs to be explored, and it needs to be done with Travel Ark. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.
My experience of visiting Ladakh and a little bit of Kashmir with them was spectacular. first of all the routes are not conventional and also the accommodation options they provided with are so very good. i have thoroughly enjoyed my one of a kind of an experience of visiting one of most amazing places on earth with Travel Ark. Thank you for this travelling bliss without any headache and providing time at each place properly, keeping in mind with the kind of money we paid. i would again love to go on tour with you guys, looking forward anxiously as soon as i can save up some….love their unorthodox way of travelling solutions for our kind of people….a little weirder than the so called tourists….
I went to a Bali and Yogyajarta trip with Travel Ark and to say it was a blissful experience would be an understatement. The destination was great of course, but Travel Ark’s management was outstanding. The accommodation and food was beyond expectation and very enjoyable. All the day trips and sightseeings were so carefully managed and planned that we had fun tours everyday. The guides and other staffs were very warm and friendly. All the transfer and day trip coaches were very comfortable. It was like a dream trip which would definitely not have been possible without Travel Ark’s detailed planning and no complains management. I am looking forward to further experiences with them.
I travelled with Travel Ark in June 2016 along with a few friends and family. We have been fortunate to have Mr Mahapatra with us on the tour. It is one of the best organized tour I have enjoyed. There were many long car journeys, stay overnight in several hotels. Everything was organised at a very high standard and utmost professionalism. Attention to details of individual need of the members of the group (age 12 to 56) was excellent. I must say the experience of the beautiful Ladakh was significantly enhanced by absolute hassle free organisation of the tour itself. I will recommend Travel Ark without hesitation to everyone and certainly use it again for myself and my family. A big thank you to Mr Mahapatra.
We had an wonderful and memorable trip to Ladakh; the trip was organised by Mr Pradip Mahapatra, proprietor of www.travelark.in; We are grateful to him for his sincere and caring attitude; we were 18 close friends and families with kids; total tour was of 12 days ( kolkata-kolkata); we stayed at night at Srinagar (houseboat); Kargil (1 night); Leh (total 4 nights); pangong lake (1 night at camp); lake tsomoriri (1 night at camp); Nubra valley (1 night); we had an experience of a lifetime of rafting at river Zansker; that was also arranged by him; The pangong and tsomoriri lakes were amazing with heavenly beauties specially pangong; We really pleased to get Mr Pradip as tour operator for his caring and sincere attitude; and also Ladakh is an amazing place to visit; highly recommendable. From my previous experiences while living in UK, this well organized Ladakh trip by Travel Ark is comparable to any tour operator of Europe and USA.
Just back from Leh-Ladakh trip. Mr. Pradip Mahapatra of travel ark planned our whole trip. We were more than satisfied with their excellent choice of hotel/tent. The car provided was good and the driver was very friendly and efficient. Overall we are very very happy with the service. Looking forward to another trip with travel ark very soon!
Ladakh has been keeping me fascinated since my childhood. Those days I used to read magazines and travelogues on Himalaya. The dream came true only a year ago. It was a family trip under the guidance and care of Travel Ark. We reached Leh from Manali on our own. At Leh we were received by Mr. Pradip Mahapatra of Travel Ark-a very cordial and easy going man with vast knowledge of Ladakh and the Greater Himalaya. The arrangements were excellent and we never felt we were in Ladakh for the first time. Right from our Hotel at Leh, tents at Nubra Valley, Pangong, Tsomoriri everywhere we were provided with luxurious accommodations and delicious food. The best thing was the choice of drivers who drove us to these places. With least worry we drove on the world’s most dangerous roads. Finally a word about Mr. Mahapatra. You can feel the richness of Ladakh in the most fruitful way when you get a companion like him. The budget was also little compared to the experience. It was the best organized tour we ever had. Thanks Travel Ark.
I had contacted this Travel organizer for my trip to Ladakh during July, 2015. My plan was to travel by train to Delhi, from there to Srinagar by flight, from Srinagar to Leh by road via Kargil , Suru valley, Mulbek, from Leh to Nubra valley right up to the last border village named Turtuk, Pangong Tso, Tso Moriri, Tso Kar and other places right up to Manali by Taxi, and then back via Delhi.
To say the least, their arrangements, be it in hotels, tents, etc. for night stay, food arrangements, tour guidance, medical advice, selection of transport operator for each individual group etc., I found to be just unparalleled. I have heard of numerous complaints from my other colleagues who visited Ladakh with some renowned Travel Agents in the circuit; in terms of hotel arrangements, food, transport, etc. etc., but my experience with this group is just the opposite. Forget complaining; I am looking forward for my next trip with them when my only concern during the trip will be my photography and nothing else!
Bon Voyage! Keep it up!
Visiting Ladakh was always on my priority list and that too at an early age. Ultimately last June a group of 7 of us friends finally nailed it. Everybody had their share of opinions regarding the planning of the trip but we were really fortunate to meet MR. PRADIP MAHAPATRA, the lead member of Travel Ark. It was his intelligent, still adventurous planning that made our trip a real success. The resorts or tents were impeccable .We enjoyed our trip to the fullest. It will always remain as one the best trips ever. I strongly suggest everyone reading my review to consult Mr. Mahapatra for Ladakh trip.
