Early morning drive to famous Tiger Hill to view the beautiful sunrise over the Kanchenjunga massif. After that, city tour covering Darjeeling City and Himalayan Mountaineering Institute. Late afternoon some time for shopping.

Tiger Hill
Tiger Hill is famous for the panoramic views it offers of Mount Everest along with Kanchenjunga. The first rays of the sun shoot ahead and shed light upon the twin peaks of Kanchenjunga painting it pink and then bathing it in a beautiful orange color. From Tiger Hill, Mount Everest (8848m) is just visible, peeping out through two other peaks standing by its side. Makalu (8481m) looks higher than Mt. Everest, owing to the curve in the horizon, as it is several miles closer than Everest. The distance in straight line from Tiger Hill to Everest is 107 miles.

Himalayan Mountaineering Institute (HMI)
The Institute was established on 4th November 1954, which was then the hub center of all mountaineering activity in India. The first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953 by Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary sparked a keen interest in establishing mountaineering as a well-respected endeavour for people in the region. The late Maj N.D. Jayal was the first Principal of the Institute whereas the late Tenzing Norgay was Director of Field Training. The museum also has a lot of good artifacts and gear from many of the famous expeditions. You will be amazed to see how little equipment the Hillary-Tenzing team had on the first climb to Everest. The Institute is the landmark in Darjeeling and an important center of tourist attraction. It commands a magnificent view of the Kanchenjunga massif.

I just had a trip in north sikkim with thus agency. The owner is highly professional and amicable. We had an excellent service of hotels and cars. The only concerning issue was the food. The arrangement of food was not satisfactory and it should be upgraded. So if you can arrange your own food ( specially lunch and dinner) , the other offered services are excellent.
