Forest, river bed and tea garden - Gorumara and Jaldapara safaris with quiet riverside nights at Murti.
The Dooars is a different kind of trip from the hills - flatter, greener, slower, and built around forest timings rather than sightseeing lists. This plan keeps the two main safaris, adds the quieter forest villages above Samsing, and leaves plenty of unstructured time by the river. It suits families with children and anyone who wants a genuinely restful few days.
Drive across to the Murti or Lataguri area, roughly two to three hours. Evening free by the river.
Overnight at DooarsMorning jeep safari in Gorumara, subject to forest department allotment. Afternoon at Chapramari and the Murti river bed, with a village walk if you would like one.
Overnight at DooarsSafari at Jaldapara, then the drive up to Samsing and Suntalekhola through the tea belt and forest.
Overnight at DooarsTransfer to New Jalpaiguri, New Mal or Bagdogra for your onward journey.
