We did the Sandakphu Offbeat Trek. It was a memorable and gratifying experience. The trip was well organized. Our guide Tenzing was very attentive to our needs and abilities. He was thoughtful, and knowledgeable about the plant and wildlife as well as about the local culture. We appreciated his encouragement, kindness and sense of humour. The Ashmita office was helpful in mapping out the trek, answering all our questions with detail and patience. We would highly recommend Ashmita and Tenzing. continue reading

I am Dominique from Spain. I travelled recently to Darjeeling and Sikkim with a French friend. We contacted Ashmita Trek to organize our 4 days trek in Singalila and 8 days trek in Sikkim. We had a great time. Nature was so beautiful even cloudy. Everything went perfectly. We had a wonderful guide, Sangay, so helpful and friendly. Always looking after us, and telling us interesting stories about Tibetan culture. The food in the homestays was good….tea whenever we wanted. ... continue reading

Once we booked the Trek, Subash, the General Manager of Ashmita contacted us to check if we had any further queries ... continue reading

Subash was very helpful when arranging, squashing the trek into 5 instead of 6 days to suit our itinerary, sorted secure storage for our extra baggage in their offices in Darjeeling whilst we were trekking and helping with the arrangements for our onward travel.We had an excellent guide, Dawa Lama who had extensive knowledge of the route, along with the local flora & fauna! He was very interesting to talk to and ... continue reading

Dawa Lama was our guide and was very attentive, always checking in that we were happy and comfortable. We learnt a lot from him about the trek but also generally the West Bengal culture. I ... continue reading

Best decision ever!!! I am an Australian woman who was travelling solo in India. I booked a one-week Customised Private Tour with Ashmita Trek & Tours with a cultural focus on Darjeeling (West Bengal) and Gangtok (Sikkim). Ashmita’s service was impeccable from start to finish.The Manager, Mr Norbu Lama, responded very promptly to my initial email request and to my responses; their Quote was very competitive i.e. a local Travel Agent in Australia quoted me a price that was approx. ... continue reading

We used Ashmita Trek & Tours during our recent visit to Darjeeling. Everything was arranged very well and professionally. From the taxi service from Bagdogra airport to the bike tour and the day trek to Tonglu, our whole experience was great.
