Our experience with Rucksack Travel Agency was an absolute disaster from start to finish. We had booked a trip to Mussoorie, Rishikesh, and Delhi, expecting a well-organized and hassle-free journey. I (Read More)nstead, what we encountered was a complete lack of coordination, mismanagement, and unnecessary stress. From transportation to accommodation, everything was handled so poorly that it completely ruined our trip.
The cab arrangements were chaotic beyond belief. We had to change cabs every single day, which was not only inconvenient but also a major disruption to our travel plans. There was no communication between the agency and the drivers, leaving us stranded and waiting for new cabs daily. The drivers were often clueless about our itinerary, leading to delays and confusion throughout the trip. The entire transport arrangement felt unplanned, causing unnecessary frustration.
The hotel accommodations were no better. In Mussoorie, the hotel was decent, but the moment we reached Rishikesh, everything fell apart. The hotel was located in an area so remote that no proper vehicle could reach it. The narrow lane leading to it was only accessible by a cycle or a two-wheeler, making it extremely difficult for us to reach our stay with luggage. However, the worst experience came in Delhi, where we faced outright humiliation. Despite having paid the full amount in advance, Rucksack failed to make the hotel payment. The hotel staff stopped us from taking our bags and treated us as if we were at fault, making us feel embarrassed and helpless. The agency’s negligence in handling payments put us in an uncomfortable and distressing situation.
To add to the frustration, despite paying for three people, we were only provided accommodation for two at every location. No extra bed, no blanket, nothing. We were forced to adjust in an uncomfortable setting when we had rightfully paid for proper accommodation. This blatant disregard for basic hospitality made the experience even worse.
What was promised in our itinerary was never delivered. Important locations were missed, sightseeing was rushed, and it was evident that there was no proper planning behind the trip. Every day felt unpredictable and disorganized, leaving us feeling anxious instead of relaxed. Instead of enjoying our vacation, we spent most of our time dealing with the agency’s incompetence, making endless calls to fix problems that should never have arisen in the first place.
Overall, Rucksack Travel Agency turned what should have been a memorable trip into an experience full of stress, humiliation, and disappointment. Their lack of professionalism, false promises, and complete mismanagement make them highly unreliable. This was not just a bad experience—it was a nightmare. If you are considering booking with them, think twice and save yourself from the mess we went through.
