Travel Advise To North Bengal.

Debasish

To All IM Members and Concerned Traveller to North Bengal.

While Travelling to/from Siliguri to Kolkata , donot travel by A/c
Sleeper Coaches , these are literally death trap , if there is
no option left better travel by Normal Sitting bus or A/C Coaches.
on these buses you will be bumping your head to the ceiling
and there is every possibility of Neck / Back Injury.

Also a word of Caution Do not take any tour conducted by
"WBTDC" west bengal tourism development corporation ,
the most unprofessional tour operator in the world.

Take Care.

quite true.....specially regarding the road conditions just now....

u may have been a sufferer.... but WBTDC has a fairly good reputation as as tour operators.....to change that it requires several experiences like what u have had.

Right . And I have very good experience with WBTDC hotels. WBTDC hotels in Darjeeling and Kalimpong is just GREAT!!!!

Perhaps the OP had their own reasons to put people off the West Bengal Tourism Development Corporation.

They won't be replying though.
