Summer time-off at Darjeeling/Gangtok
Its peak summer and boiling hot in Chennai. My family and I plan to cool-off for an impromptu trip to say... Darjeeling/Gangtok, for 5 days starting coming Monday. Deeply appreciate for any advise and itinerary for the trip. It will be our first to here. Or should I look at some other options. Thanks in advance.

It's peak season for Darjeeing / Gangtok. 5-Day-trip looks good for Darjeeing & Gangtok. Spend two nights at Darjeeling & three at Gangtok

Corbett National Park // Darjeeling // Kankrajhore // Kodanad & Athirapally// Dhanuskodi// Nagzira // Daringbadi // Hollong
