Homestays run by local families in Uttarey

Hot springs, waterfalls and the Teesta valley
Permits arranged by us in advance
DARJEELING
Tinchuley
A hilltop hamlet above the Teesta with orange orchards, organic homestays and one of the cleanest sunrise views in the Darjeeling hills.
Sunrise over Kanchenjunga from the viewpoint
Day trips to Takdah, Lamahatta and Peshok tea estate
Ideal 3-day break for couples
COASTAL BENGAL
Bankiput
A quiet stretch of shoreline near Junput, with casuarina groves, fishing boats and evenings where the beach is largely yours.

Fishing harbour visits and local seafood
Comfortable weekend drive from Kolkata
More offbeat routes are added every season
Tell us the kind of place you have in mind — a quiet river valley, a forest homestay, an empty beach — and we will build the trip around it.
