The ingenuineness of this review appears doubtful. Justify your opinion.
I feel this review is:
Recently(Nov 2022) I came across a fraud car rental agency at Siliguri, Darjeeling. Name; Tourism Go. Operates in the name of Mr. Dipayan Dutta/Mr. Shivam. The book car for hill holidays and taken advance and after that, they switched off their mobile. They will ask to transfer advance money to their A/c thru. UPI. A/c Np. 110080629977, IFSC Code: CNRB0019790, Phone/Google pay: 7548022540. They may change mobile number afterwards. They operate website also. I have files a FIR at Darjeeling police station also.
Pl be aware of this agency. Their UPI ID I am attaching

The worst experience I have ever had with this agency. The CEO of this company Mr. Aditya, had no minimum etiquette to speak to customers and resolve the issue. My trip has been cancelled due to medical emergency and gave informed a well ahead of time and all my money has been looted by this company along with Travel Triangle with no refund initiated.
No empathy and especially when it comes to money, both travel triangle and Himalayan travels acted so well and genuine untill the money is reflected into their account we would see the actual shade of them. Looters you will receive fate if you keep doing these things to public. We rely on you for genuine services and not fraudulent activities.
Mr. Aditya, when you can take my money, I have every right to ask for my money back and you cannot deny it escaping my calls, blocking my number and playing all cheap tricks. Do genuine hard work and earn money and not by these silly tricks. You should be having a family too.
Friends, please donot ever dream to book your travel with this guys. Initially they are sweet and later you see their other side of venom after the payment.
We booked them through travel triangle and that was the moment when we made one of the biggest mistakes of our lives. Their management and especially their drivers are no less than goons. In the middle of the trip their driver started asking for extra money and when we denied the same he got all violent and abusive. We decided to discontinue with them and asked for our refund from their manager who said: "Do whatever you want to do. I am not refunding a single penny" They are nothing but a gang of Thugs. Please think twice before hiring them or making an advance payment.
YOUR RATING ON
Himalayan travels is worst. I have paid rs.49000(42000+ 4000(Nathula pass)+ 3000(Kala pathar) for Taxi. 10 days trip. This agency do not own cars and give contract to other companies. So Himalayan travels gives contract to company A and then company A give contract to company B and then company B stand on the road and give contract to any driver on road. Once our driver got personal emergency then the cheap game of himalayan travels started. Their company B was standing on the road and asking the road side drivers to take the tourists. Driver didn't know who Himalayan travel is and doesn't care about Himalayan travels. Had to wait on the road for 3 hours as the new driver declined to take the other route. We even offered to pay rs.1000 extra but it did not work. The driver took the shortest route possible, which doesn't even exist on map. I have attached the pic.Their owner is even worst, their expectation is "What is the problem is waiting for 3 hours?" "If you are in a car and not on road then you should not complain." "You can complain to anyone about us and we will take care of you" . They will try to convince to take the package by saying "You are from rajasthan and I am from rajasthan(Agent)". Agent would not pickup the call for hours and you would be stuck in your trip. Once you make the payment then nobody cares where you are in trip. Please book by a travel agency like traveltriangle so atleast they would pickup your calls.
P.S. Please do not buy tea from tea garden at Darjeeling. They would charge you 500rs. kg for green tea while the same tea is available 300 rs kg at rock climbing(just 1 km from tea garden). The greedy drivers of himalayan travels would tell you to buy from tea garden so they get commission. Even the quantity of the tea would be only 800 gms instead of kg.
Very very bad experience. Though we paid entire mony beforehand there was no hotel booked in Darjeeling even. No driver came to pick up in bagdogra airport, no driver reached in time for sightseeing.Very bad selection of hotels.No sightseeing done.Very worst company and cheated us totally.I quite forget to share the details but when same report came from another from my city I thought to take all possible actions to stop this type of cheating of innocent tourists and warn all to avoid and save their tour.
I have used Himalaya Travels twice to go to Darjeeling. They were urgent trips so I had to take the sleeper bus by Himalaya travels.
The ticketing process was smooth and easy and I faced no issues what so over in that journey. They have such a huge network that they have their own bus stops in Darjeeling and even on the way. The buses ran mostly on time.
The seats were clean and the light and charging points worked. The bus attendants were very courteous and helpful. I had heard about the the roads being really good, everything being orderly and neat. Eager to go and see it I took the Himalaya travels. Give it a try if you are going to Darjeeling by a bus.
