5Give it a go, well worth the effort
Great experience. Amit was the guide, a local man with wonderful knowledge of the history of Darjeeling and all things local. It was an enjoyable and informative few hours spent with him walking the streets and alleys of Darjeeling.
4A Truly Wonderful Family Experience
We engaged Darjeeling Walk for a short family trip across Darjeeling and Kalimpong, and the experience was truly wonderful. What touched us most was the care, warmth and attention to detail throughout the journey. A big thank you to Sunny, Manish, Prashanthi, Aman and the entire team for making every experience so thoughtfully planned and memorable. A special mention to Anirban, who was a great support and ensured a seamless end-to-end experience. What makes Darjeeling Walk special is that it never felt like we were simply dealing with a travel company...it felt like the team genuinely wanted us to experience and enjoy the place. Thank you, for giving our family such beautiful memories. We would be very happy to travel with you again, and would absolutely recommend Darjeeling Walk to anyone looking for a genuine and well-curated experience in Darjeeling or the Northeast. Wishing the entire team all the very best!
5Darjeeling Walksss
I was having a very tight schedule. They executed the tour as per my schedule. Ankit from Darjeeling Walks took me around. Very interesting informative and value for money. Thank you very much.
5Immersive and Rich Experience!
I would highly recommend Darjeeling Walks for anyone who hopes to get an immersive experience where you get to explore different aspects of the city, its history and its evolution. I had the privilege to take two walks with DW, the Summer Capital and the Culture Shock. Both walks were rich in their experience, where we walked up and down winding roads of the city to uncover a lot of its lesser known treasures, and our guide Ankit with his rich knowledge of the context was able to weave a cohesive narrative, making it a memorable experience! Highly recommended and cannot wait to come back for more walks with Darjeeling Walks!
5Informative and enjoyable walk

About Darjeeling
Darjeeling is a hill town in West Bengal, set among tea estates at about 2,000 metres, with a toy railway, monasteries and views of Kangchenjunga.
Darjeeling spreads along a ridge in the Himalayan foothills, with its tea gardens dropping into the valleys below. The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway, a narrow-gauge line with small steam locomotives, is a World Heritage site and spirals through the Batasia Loop. The Mall at Chowrasta is the town's open square, and Observatory Hill is hung with prayer flags around a small shrine.
