Darjeeling Tour Packages
Misty tea gardens, golden Kanchenjunga sunrises, ancient monasteries and the charm of the Toy Train — experience the magic of Darjeeling, Gangtok & beyond.
Land of Tea & Clouds
Darjeeling sits at 2,042 metres in the lower Himalayas of West Bengal, about 80 km from New Jalpaiguri. The town built its name on tea — over 80 estates still produce the muscatel-flavoured Darjeeling leaf — and on the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, the narrow-gauge "Toy Train" running since 1881 and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On clear mornings, Tiger Hill offers sunrise views of Kangchenjunga, the world's third-highest peak.
Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim, lies about 100 km away at 1,650 metres. It is the base for visiting Rumtek and Enchey monasteries, MG Marg's pedestrian street, the Tsomgo Lake cable car, and permit-controlled North Sikkim spots like Lachung and the Yumthang Valley. Most travellers combine both towns in a single 5 to 7 night trip.
