Darjeeling - Fullday Sightseeing
Early rising at 4:00 am and we head towards Tiger Hill, a place famous for sunrise over Mt. Kanchendzonga. On our way back we will visit the Ghoom Monastery and Batasia Loop (The Batasia Loop was an engineering marvel of its time. It is a spiral railway created to lower the gradient of ascent of the Toy Train. At this point, the track spirals around over itself through a tunnel). From here we head back to our hotel where breakfast will be served.
After breakfast we head out for 7 points sightseeing. We visit the Himalayan Mountaineering Institute, PNZ Zoological Park (closed on Thursday), Tenzing Rock, Tibetan Refugee Centre (closed on Sunday), Tea Garden (outer view), Rope way (subject to availability) Japanese Temple and Peace Pagoda. In the evening, we return to the hotel for overnight stay.
Darjeeling Joy Ride ( 1 hr. - 1 hr. 30 mints. Appox.) : Please inform us in advance, as tickets are limited. Alternatively, you can book directly through IRCTC. ( 9:30 am / 3:30 pm train timing will be convenient)
**A visit to Tiger Hill depends on getting a token and good weather. If the weather is bad or it's raining, we won't go early in the morning. Instead, we'll visit Tiger Hill during the daytime sightseeing tour**
