Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Does the package price include parking and entry fees?
No. Our package specifically covers the vehicle rental, driver's allowance, and fuel for the entire itinerary. Parking charges (usually ₹50-₹100 at specific tourist spots) and entry tickets for attractions like the Zoo, HMI, or Rock Garden must be paid directly by the passenger at the respective counters.
2. Can we change the itinerary on the go?
Minor adjustments or skipping spots within the Darjeeling municipal area are completely fine. However, for major changes involving other towns (such as deciding to add an excursion to Kalimpong instead), please inform our dispatch team in advance so we can adjust the fuel and distance calculations accordingly.
3. What time does the Tiger Hill sunrise tour start?
The Tiger Hill excursion begins very early. Your assigned driver will pick you up from your Darjeeling hotel at approximately 4:00 AM. This is necessary to beat the heavy traffic line-up of tourist vehicles and ensure you secure a good viewing spot before the sun rises over Mt. Kanchenjunga.
