We had booked our Sikkim trip with Krishna Tours, and Anuradha was our point of (Read More)contact. It was a special anniversary trip for us, and from the very beginning, we shared our expectations regarding hotels, places to visit, and the occasion—and she planned everything perfectly.
She suggested the best possible itinerary, and thanks to her efforts, we were able to cover North Sikkim along with Namchi and Ravangla, which is not commonly included in most tours.
Anuradha is highly professional, and we truly appreciated her transparency throughout the planning process. The drivers were also very friendly and guided us well at every location.
We had a wonderful experience and would definitely recommend her services.
