    Steve chris scott - January 31, 2016

    I was having trouble finding a company to arrange transfers up to Darjeeling and organise a driver for us when we were there. Luckily I found Ashmita Trek and Tours. Subash the owner was a pleasure to deal with and the trip all went smoothly. The driver was waiting for us at the airport and drove us the 4 hours up to Darjeeling. The next day we visited the Japanese peace temple, Mountain institute, zoo, and the Tibetan refugee centre. We had arranged a trip on the mountain steam railway (A must) so were dropped of for this. Although it wasnt part of our tour Subash met us after the train returned and walked with us through the town and marketplace. The next day we were picked up at 4.30am to watch the spectacular sunrise at Tiger Hill. The sun lights up the Himalayas providing a breathtaking view. We went back down the mountain via Mirik Lake to catch our train. I would highly recommend taking this route down as it is very scenic. We stopped at the Ghoom Monastery, Nepal lookout, Tea plantation and Mirik Lake on the way down. The trip was all handled very professionally and also with a genuine thoughtfulness for our needs. Great company.

    We popped into Ashmita to get some advice about the sleeper bus to Kolkata. The whole family was there. All delightful. Contacted another agency in Siliguri and sorted tickets for us, all at no cost. All the time being helpful and super friendly. We then waited while they spoke with other clients about trekking. Obviously knowledgeable, they were helpful and interested in finding the right trek for the clients rather than necessarily the most lucrative one for their business. Highly recommended.
