Thinking of doing this Tour in Feb 2020. Is anyone else on the Tour flying from Heathrow on Mon 10/02/20? Only thinking about it at the moment as doing Delhi to Darjeeling in Oct. 19. But at the same time am interested.

Hello Wildflower01,

It was my first JY and solo tour in Feb 2015. This is a longer tour in terms of the flying time and days, not to mention the cost. I enjoyed every minute of the tour, worth sitting on a flight from Melbourne to LHR non-stop for 24 hours!! I would say, do consider to go to Australia.

I would like to go to Darjeeling sometime within the next two years.

Regards 

Dyuti

Hello Dyuti

Thank you so much for your reply. You have now inspired me to definately think about booking. The only thing that concerns me is the flight time in the air. Also quite expensive. But I will definately give it more thought.

I have just returned from The Spirit of India Tour in February. It was so exciting, so inspiring I knew I wanted to return to India. The Delhi-Darjeeling Tour is new but looks so interesting I had to book. So glad I did.

Good Morning Dyuti

Thank you for your reply. If the Tour is that good will definately give it more thought. It’s the flying hours puts me off.

Looking forward to Delhi-Darjeeling. Will do a post on my return.

Yes, I have booked this tour departing Heathrow on 10 February 2020 via Singapore (but not doing the stop over). 

Cant wait!

Hello Wildflower,

If you would like to know more about the Australian tour, you can find out from the Reviews section in this forum. I always do the research this way before booking.

I am originally from India, arrived here more than half a century ago. Good to know that you are enjoying your visits there. I have visited most parts of India, but not Darjeeling. It is on my bucket list, so do write your thoughts about the trip.
