Lonely Planet review for Happy Valley Tea Estate

Happy Valley Tea Estate, below Hill Cart Rd, is worth visiting when the plucking and processing are in progress. March to May is the busiest time, but occasional plucking also occurs from June to November. Outside of high season there’s no plucking on Sunday, which means most of the machinery isn’t working on Monday. An employee will whisk you through the aromatic factory and its various processes before politely demanding a tip – Rs20 from each visitor is appropriate. Take the turn off 500m northwest of the Office of the District Magistrate, or take Lochnager Rd from Chowk Bazaar.

    Great to see tea production right from the plucking stage. Do not buy tea inside the tea factory nor the lady outside the factory. She know's nothing about tea but just talks a lot. No need to pay any guide. The ones ouside posing as guides are all drunkards. Avoid them at all cost.
