Local tips before you travel
Tiger Hill sunrise
Tiger Hill is about 11 km from Darjeeling town, and sunrise trips leave very early in the morning. Most trips combine it with Batasia Loop and Ghoom Monastery on the way back. Book your car the day before, and keep a warm jacket handy, as the walk near the top can be chilly.
See sightseeing rates →Going to Sikkim
Sikkim has its own taxi permit rules, and on routes such as Darjeeling to Gangtok the vehicle handover usually happens near the Rangpo border. Places such as Tsomgo Lake and Nathu La need permits arranged in advance, so carry a valid photo ID. Ask us before you book and we will explain how your route works.
See tariffs →Private or shared
Shared jeeps run on fixed routes, charge per seat and usually wait to fill up. A private taxi leaves when you are ready, picks you up at the door and has room for your luggage. Our fares are per vehicle, so a group of four or more often finds a private car good value.
Book a private taxi →Best time to visit
March to May and October to December usually bring the clearest Himalayan views. The monsoon months from June to September are green and quiet, but rain can slow roads. Winter mornings in Darjeeling are cold, so pack warm clothes.
