Gaze at Kanchenjunga

Get up early and gaze open-mouthed at the spectacular Kanchenjunga, the world’s third-highest mountain. At dawn, its snowy peaks appear even more mystical in the sunrise’s orange glow.



Stroll through tea plantations

Tea was first introduced in Darjeeling in the mid-19th century by the British, and the sprawling tea estates, clubs and bungalows are reminiscent of that grand era. Stroll through miles of rolling tea gardens, strike up a conversation with the garden workers and discover how deftly they pluck the tea leaves.

With plantations as old as 150 years and picture-perfect stretches of lush green tea bushes beckoning you, this tea estate will floor you with its scenic charm.

Book a ride on the toy train

A journey on the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway fondly known as the toy train is a great way to explore and soak in the magnificent surroundings of this hill station. Staring out of the window at an endless expanse of tea plantations is an experience like no other.
