Kansul Arif Google Maps customer review

“I had a great time in Kashmir. I stayed for five days and four nights in February 2026. It was an amazing experience in the snow, with a stay on a Dal Lake houseboat. Our cab driver, Sajad, was a very kind person. Thank you, Travel Arc, for these memorable moments. We would like to come again in spring.”

“I had a great experience. Mr Basharat is a really nice person: punctual, polite, and very helpful. He drove safely, and we felt completely comfortable travelling with him. The cab was clean, and everything went smoothly. The agency's service was excellent too — a perfect choice whether you are travelling alone or with family.”
