Darjeeling Tourism

Take the first step to getting there!

What makes Darjeeling a must-visit destination?

On a summer day, the fragrance of tea leaves lifts off the hills and hover over Darjeeling like a hat and the wonderful things breathes unsaid inside that, like the bent trees, the happy earthworms, the reluctant tea-colored puddles, flowering Rhododendrons and Magnolia plants and the wild garden flowers blooming in different colors of rainbow and a British bungalow growing a fragile façade of greenery for ages amidst a sprawling tea garden. Darjeeling tour packages offer an enchanting experience amidst the mesmerizing beauty of its tourist places, leaving travelers awestruck and captivated.


And when the heavens’ open up to hammer the water down, the grass looks wet-green and pleased, loose earth shapes off its edges, the washed off dust-green trees smiles afresh and the green countryside glitters in the traces of sunshine.Covered with the dense evergreen forests of Sal and Oak, with ducks and teals creating waves in water, and with rare breeds of orchid spreading colors on a moist soil, Darjeeling, a previous summer capital of India under the British Raj holds the incredible panoramic views of Kanchenjunga snow peaks, beautiful colonial architecture including mansions and churches, an influence of diverse cultures in the majestic craft and cuisine, a beautiful women, the taker of the seeds with a yellow scarf on her head and tea-bag on her shoulders, and a vast expanse of Tea estates in its root.


This “Mecca of Tea” with over 80 operational tea gardens spread across acres of land, writes on a foggy day sitting inside a vintage Toy Train from 1880s, a whimsical poem, of what is delightfully read as the "Champagne of tea". The northwest winds visit Darjeeling to tear it full of holes but the new beautiful things come in the first spit of spring on the northwest wind, and the old leaves go, not one lasts but the beauty stays with the new and lasts for eternity. Darjeeling is a beauty that won’t let your heart stop, from beating in ecstasy, and the tourist places in Darjeeling shall always ensure that!

Booked: Trekking to Sandakphu and Phalut

Positives: - Overall great trekking experience. - Difficulty level was exactly what i was looking for. - Schedule was good and engaging - Bijay (our guide) was too good. He took care of everything (keeping our morale up, ensuring that we checked in properly to each stay area etc etc). - Food was decent throughout - Stay was not too bad. So basically no complaints. Special thanks to Sonam ji and Bijay ji.

Booked: Trekking to Sandakphu and Phalut

The trek was very nice and well planned by the Thrillophilia and the Sandakphu & Beyond team. It was a easy to medium trek for regular trekkers but if you're going for the first time then it may feel like medium to hard. Overall the views very nice, temperature varied a lot from 18-20 C to -2 C. Totally recommended

Booked: Trekking to Sandakphu and Phalut

Actually the local operator told me that the phalut trek was not going to happen just for me  . But Mr Priyanshu Sharma made it all possible with just one call of mine . Rather I was really disheartened when the local operator told me they have already informed the thrillophilia officials seven days prior that no one is opting for phalut trek which was my first priority . So I was really very happy when all the arrangements were made for me. I would also like to mention about Mr Nirje Mukhya who was the guide throughout the entire trek .He was really very kind and made the entire trek very lively.Thanks to Thrillophilia !

Booked: Romantic tour of Gangtok Pelling and Darjeeling | FREE Skywalk Tour

In this trip, We visited east, south and west Sikkim and then Darjeeling and places around it. All the hotel bookings were great and the set itinerary was good as well. This trip provided us a much private and customizable experience which we wanted. I am especially thankful for Tilak ji, our driver cum guide who was so engaging through the trip. The thrillophilia contact manager as well the the travel operating agency were in touch with us daily throughout the trip. Overall it was a great trip and I would definitely recommend others to take up.
