Very good experience! - Took a half day tour of the key attractions in Darjeeling which took around 5 hours. Our tour coordinator Abishek was great and made sure that the arrangement was smooth and seamless. He happens to be an excellent driver as well. Our guide Apeksha provided wonderful hospitality and and gave good explanations of the various attractions across town. A very pleasant experience.
