Summary: One of my friend recommended me, their services. I was little sceptical at first but when I took their services I must say no one is better than them in that area. They did not only took us to the scenic beauty of Darjeeling but also made sure that we don't feel left out so they introduced us to their various other activities such as trekking and much more. My one week stay was exceptional and full of adventures just cause of them and at a friendly budget. And yes I would definitely recommend them if you are in Darjeeling.
