Local tales and written accounts recall how people came from across the seas to seek their fortune here, and Darjeeling Tea shaped many lives. Tea Pluckers' Day offers a close look at the craft and skilled labour behind this celebrated drink. The experience takes place at a tea garden or estate beyond the town, giving a behind-the-scenes view of tea production and the everyday routine of tea pluckers.
You will visit one of the provider’s partner tea gardens, chosen according to real-time availability. The experience includes a packed breakfast with fresh fruit and organic Darjeeling Tea, a guided tour of the tea garden, a forest hike and walks through the estate, and a visit to a tea factory. Along the way you will taste Darjeeling teas and have lunch on the estate, experiencing the work and atmosphere that go into each cup.
