Best Time for Darjeeling Trip

April To June (Summer)

April to June is the best time for a Darjeeling Trip. Why? During these summer months, the temperature ranges between 13°C to 22°C, making the weather pleasant and comfortable. This is the ideal season to enjoy all kinds of activities, explore the beauty of Darjeeling, and catch the amazing sunrise views from Tiger Hill.

October to February (Winter)

During Winter, the temperature ranges between 2°C and 10°C, and all of Darjeeling is wrapped in winter chill. Higher Altitude places like Sandakphu or Tiger Hill may even receive snowfall (occasionally). Most days are foggy, and visibility can be low, making it hard to enjoy distant views. However, if you're a couple or someone who loves the winter vibe, this season still offers a cozy and memorable experience.

July To October (Monsoon)

During this time, Darjeeling experiences frequent and continuous rainfall. If you're planning a trip in this season, chances are high that you’ll get caught in the rain. The constant showers can limit outdoor activities and block the views, often leaving you stuck in your hotel waiting for the rain to stop. However, the upside is that this is the off-season, so you can get the Darjeeling tour package at a very low price, as fewer tourists visit Darjeeling during this season.
