Dooars Tour from Siliguri - Car Rental & Travel Guide

Dooars is the green gateway to the Northeast, known for its endless tea gardens, dense forests, and wildlife-rich national parks. Just a short drive from Siliguri, this region stretches from the Teesta River in the east to the Sankosh River in the west, offering a refreshing escape into nature.

Famous for elephant herds, one-horned rhinos, and vibrant birdlife, Dooars is a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts and photographers. The landscape changes from neat rows of tea bushes to deep sal forests and open grasslands, making every drive scenic.

With Jayanti Travels, you can easily book a Dooars car rental for safaris in Gorumara, Jaldapara, or Buxa, or plan a tea estate tour to experience the slower pace of life in the foothills.
