Introduction || This tour brings together the hills and foothills of North Bengal, combining highland tea culture with the biodiversity of the Himalayan plains. Beginning in Kurseong at 1,500 meters, the journey unfolds within a classic tea Darjeeling landscape shaped by rolling plantations and cool mountain air. Kurseong’s estates reflect the legacy of the iconic Darjeeling tea estate tradition, where you explore tea gardens, learn about the various tea processes, and participate in tea tasting sessions that showcase the character of Darjeeling tea plantation craftsmanship. From Kurseong, the journey moves to Darjeeling, where the skyline is defined by sweeping views of the Kanchenjunga Mountains. The town’s elevated setting offers expansive Himalayan landscapes, blending mountain vistas with cultural depth. This phase of the journey allows time to absorb the natural beauty and distinctive atmosphere that have long defined Darjeeling as a premier hill destination. The route then continues to Kalimpong, another small town in the Darjeeling Hills known for its quieter charm and mountain setting. From here, the descent toward the Dooars foothills marks a dramatic transition from hill terrain to expansive forest plains. In the Dooars, you stay at a nature resort surrounded by pristine forest land. As an important forest area on the Himalayan foothill plains, the Dooars is widely known for one-horned rhinos and wild elephants. The experience includes exploration of forest areas by open hood jeep, offering opportunities to observe wildlife in natural surroundings from elevated watchtowers. Short walks near forest edges and local villages introduce visitors to the rhythms of rural life in the foothill belt, echoing the broader appeal of eastern India’s Sundarbans wildlife and forest ecosystems. By combining Darjeeling tea heritage, panoramic mountain settings, and forest wildlife experiences in the Dooars, this journey captures the diversity of North Bengal’s hills and plains within a single immersive itinerary.
