Hi Sweepy2, its our second time, and we are going for three weeks ths tinme as we really want to go and see the Taj Mahal. We are staying in Highland Beach Resort, have you decided about your Taj mahal trip. I just don't know whether to go with a tour operator or do it ourselves! would be easier if we let someone else organsie it for us.

been using day tripper since it started, been to bombay(their first trip), taj, dandelli, cochin, karnatica and never had a bad trip. Just see what tour operarers charge for the same trips!.If anyone on a two or three week stay thinks its easy to book a taj trip on their own using Indian Railways be my guest! they will see what I mean when they try As far as wanting to travel first class, whats wrong with 2nd.classa.c.? I,ve travelled all over India on it and i,ts fine

Well said Gramps !! :mrgreen: I must agree with you, that they do give a good service but 'mishaps' will happen at times.Has anyone actually reported back to Daytripper about the poor service - would be good to hear responses.

:D hiya gramps theres nothing wrong with 2nd class but we we,r travelling to bombay with a downs syndrome lass and a young one, if we,d of been on our own anything would of done us and like i said the best food i had in all of my goa trip this year was onthe train!! we had such tasty food!!! :D but the beef was we we,r told by daytrippers we we,r getting and paying first class?!!
and as for booking it ourselfs we managed to get train tickets to bombay but for 2 days later which was to close to when we we,r going home, thats why we booked with daytrippers there we,r 15 on our trip and everyone complained! :cry: you must of got them on a good day!! each time and we got them on a bad day!! :cry: :cry:

Hi

I was advised that the couple who run this company would be back at their offices by mid Oct.

However, I have sent them a couple of emails in the past 7 days without reply.

any ideas ?

I e-mailed them sunday and got a reply monday. The e-mail was from someone named Eddie. There is obviously someone there, I should try again.

Eddie and his wife Enid run Daytrippers. They should be back in Goa by now. :wave

We tried emailing them earlier this year before we left Ireland to go on hols but got no reply. I reckon we were too late in the season. (April)When we got to Candolim they had shut up shop until Oct.I wouldn't mind trying them again for next year as we are going earlier than last year. Can't remember their email address. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Gail

Eddie was saying they've changed the web host to a company in USA so there should be no more problems if you send him an email on info@daytrippergoa.com this will now work (i hope) :?
