I was charged for india china border visit in sikkim. But that trip was not done (Read More). I told to refund my money but that was not done. Driver Moses saw his own convenience. He waited at his own designated places. Never bothered about us. I am very much disappointed that we could not visit China border inspite of paying for it. I think the driver did not manage properly.
