How long to stay in Darjeeling etc.?

How long is needed in Darjeeling? Is it better to do Darjeeling/Kalimpong/Gangtok over 7 days or just do day trips from Darjeeling? Is there enough to do there for that long?
Thanks!

7 days would be alittle too long in Darjeeling. Nothing much to do & even the place is known more for its tradition and old time glory. Did not find it captivating enough other than the stay at the te garden. I would recommend that you skip darjeeling all together and instead opt for Gangtok, Yum Thang, Guru Dongmaar & Pelling in those 7 days.

I would advise you to plan your itinerary with the destinations of your choice as Darjeeling needs just 1 or 2 days max. for site seeing but donot skip Darjeeling.

If you are coming for 7 days,then the following itinerary can help u:
Day 1 - Darjeeling
Day 2 - Siteseeing
Day 3 - Gangtok
Day 4 - Site seeing
Day 5 - Pelling
Day 6 -Site seeing
Day 7 - Back home.

This is just an idea. Rest, you can manage and make changes as per your choice.

Good Luck
