Book Description
Touring in Sikkim and, Tibet Bhutan, Darjeeling and all the Route by Roads an Car through Tibet, Sikkim Bhutan, Darjeeling etc.
David Macdonald Late British Trade Agent Gyantse and Yatung Tibet Author of the Land of the Lama Twenty years in Tibet and Tibetan folk Tales.
In the following pages will be found hints to the intending tourist in the Darjeeling Hills, in Sikkim, and in Tibet. These notes are the result of personal experience of the writer and members of his family, who, resident in Tibet and Sikkim for many years, have experience of practically every possible tour that the visitor is likely to make.
Since the publication of the most recent Guide Book to these Hills, conditions and prices have considerably altered, and these facts, together with repeated requests from friends and travellers who have passed through Kalimpong, form the excuse for the present pamphlet.
Realising that in a volume of the present size many points of interest to the individual must necessarily be omitted, the author wishes to inform any intending tourist that he will be pleased, on request, to give any further information that may be of use in particular cases.
He also takes this opportunity of acknowledging the great assistance he has received, in the editing and production of this guide book, from Mr. F. W, R. Perry of the Himalayan Hotel, Kalimpong.
