My friend and I had a long-awaited Lakshadweep Tour and planned to go in December ****. we explored and enquirer in online about the Lakshadweep package.

Most of the Tour Operators told that tickets are sold out and not available in December ****. One day got a call from THE HOLIDAY NATION agent Siddharth and he told that we can arrange the tickets as we have blocked few tickets much earlier.

I have got an email from THE HOLIDAY NATION tea, promotion@theholidaynation.in with the details of the quotation on various packages.

We excited and finally decided to go with the customized package and it is Onward journey through cruise from Kochin to Agatti, return Journey through the flight from Agatti to Kochin for the dates **th Dec'**** to **th Dec'****.
