CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Amit, Naba and their team organised our transport for the holiday in the North East. Right from the pick up and drop off at Guwahati trip, everything went without a hitch. The drivers were super courteous and the cars (Innova Crysta) were well maintained. Our driver Dharmendra forever smiling was ready to help out at all odd hours and gave very good suggestions. Would definitely use Assam Holidays again and recommend to all. They are well connected and fave us a very good deal.
