Darjeeling Sightseeing


  • Get ready to experience a sunrise like never before from Tiger Hill. You might be a bit grumpy from waking up early this morning but we promise you, once you’re at Tiger Hill, the view of the sunrise from atop makes everything worthwhile. 

  • On your way back, you’ll visit Ghoom Monastery, which preserves some rare handwritten Buddhist manuscripts. Next, you’ll head to Batasia Loop, where the Toy Train passes in a loop-like pattern. From here, you can enjoy a 360-degree view of Darjeeling’s picture-perfect landscape.

  • Enjoy a hearty breakfast back at the hotel before you head off to visit the rest of the other attractions.
  • In the second half, you’ll visit the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute, P N Zoological Park, Tenzing Rock, and Tibetan Refugee Self-help Centre. An interesting and puzzling tourist attraction you’ll come across is the Japanese Temple built in a traditional Japanese architectural style. It is one of the major Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Darjeeling.

  • Only a ride on the Rangeet Valley passenger cable car can justify seeing Darjeeling in its entire splendour. From high up, you will witness a spectacular view of the valley bedded with lush green tea gardens, dense forest, and small gushing streams.

  • In the evening, feel free to go for a walk around the local market area for shopping before you retire for the night in your hotel.

Pelling Sightseeing 


  • Get ready to explore Darap Village, a 10-minute drive downhill from Pelling. Enjoy the drive that winds through cardamom coppice and terraced paddy fields, with the view of Mt. Khangchendzonga in the backdrop and the villages of Yuksam and Khecheopalri garnishing the foreground. Rimbi and Khangchendzonga Waterfalls fall on the way.

  • Take a trip to the wish-fulfilling Khecheopalri Lake. An interesting feature of the lake is that the leaves are not allowed to float on the lake, which is ensured by the birds that industriously pick them up as soon as they drop onto the lake's surface.

  • The second half of the day will excite history enthusiasts as you head to Rabdentse Ruins. Rabdentse was the second capital of the former kingdom of Sikkim. The palace and monastery complex was destroyed during a Nepalese invasion. Another historic place of significance is the Pemayangtse Monastery.

  • End your day at the new helipad ground and click awesome pictures before you head back to your hotel.
