I recently had the most memorable trip to Sikkim, covering Gangtok, Pelling, and (Read More) Darjeeling, and all the credit truly goes to Mrs. Anuradha from Krishna Travel DMC, Sikkim. Her planning, dedication, and attention to every little detail made this journey absolutely seamless and special. From the very beginning, Mrs. Anuradha was extremely patient, understanding, and responsive. She carefully curated the entire itinerary keeping our comfort and preferences in mind. The selection of hotels was exceptional — each stay was not only comfortable but also offered beautiful views and a warm experience that added so much charm to the trip. What really stood out was her professionalism and the way she ensured everything was perfectly organized — from smooth transfers to timely arrangements, everything was handled flawlessly. We never had to worry about anything, which allowed us to truly enjoy every moment of the trip. A big thank you to Mrs. Anuradha for making this trip so beautiful and unforgettable. I would highly recommend her to anyone planning a trip to Sikkim — you’ll be in the best hands!

Our Sikkim and Darjeeling trip was well planned and organized. The hotels provid (Read More)ed throughout the journey were comfortable, clean, and met our expectations. A special thanks to Anuradha Ma'am for her continuous support, prompt responses, and assistance before and during the trip. Her guidance made the overall experience smooth and enjoyable. The Sikkim portion of the tour was excellent and exceeded our expectations.

While our experience in Sikkim was excellent, the Darjeeling portion of the trip (Read More) could have been better. The driver assigned in Darjeeling displayed rude and unprofessional behavior, which affected our overall experience. Better customer service and courteous behavior from the driver would have made the trip much more enjoyable.
