We visited tiger hill after arranging with ashmita tours. The trip was amazing and luckily we had good weather! We were provided with a map and helpful directions for the walk down. We also booked our tickets to Kolkata here which was simple, not always the case in India! Subash was really friendly and keen to have a laugh. Would definitely book a longer tour here when I return!
