Sikkim to Kolkata Destination Reviews

MR
The Greenline bus had all modern amenities and unlike other service providers (like Shyamoli) they actually stopped at two very well maintained rest stops for food and wahsroom breaks. The driver was on time right on the dot and overall amenities inside the bus was excellent. One thing that they could improve upon is adding a mobile phone charging port which is missing. Anyone booking this ticket would be suggested to take the lower decks because you will be able to atleast sit up straight on those.
