Does a photon experience any time. Since a photon is massless and hence travels at (c) then it should suffer infinite time dilation, and hence shouldn't experience no time?

A photon is not an object and it doesn't travel. It's a quantum of a quantum field, which means it's really just a local property. Time dilation doesn't apply to local properties. It applies to clocks, which are macroscopic physical objects/systems. – CuriousOne Apr 25 '16 at 06:08
