💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in government-run forest rest houses or budget tea estate homestays (₹800-1500/night) instead of hotels - they offer authentic experiences at half the cost and direct access to tea gardens.
📅 October to March is ideal, with pleasant weather, clear skies perfect for wildlife spotting, and comfortable temperatures ranging from 10-25°C. Avoid monsoons (June-September) when roads become slippery and wildlife viewing becomes difficult.
🛂 Indian passport holders do not require any visa as Jalpaiguri is in India. However, if you plan to visit nearby Bhutan from here, you'll need a Bhutanese visa arranged through authorized tour operators.
