Overview
In India, Sikkim is the most popular tourist destination. It is among the most tranquil and politically stable regions. A sanctuary for adventure seekers and naturalists, this landlocked state is home to some of the most breathtaking scenery, plants, and species. Our unique Sikkim tour packages will take you to the highest mountain passes in the entire world, which also played a significant role in the old trade route.
On the other side, the former British Empire’s summer capital, Darjeeling served as a sanatorium and a refuge from the heat of the lowlands. Due to its captivating locations, breath-taking views of the mountains and valleys, amazing natural beauty, and old-world charm, Darjeeling is appropriately recognized as the “Queen of the Hills” and receives a large number of visitors each year.

FAQs
The vehicle will be changed based on local vehicle regulations as well as road or weather conditions. We provide exclusive tourist vehicles that are customized and maintained with the needs and comfort of travelers in mind. Due to unwritten local rules, it is not possible to provide a single vehicle for the entire trip in Darjeeling, Gangtok, and Pemayangtse. As a result, all transfers and sightseeing will be done on a point-to-point basis, and in most cases, the vehicle will be replaced with a similar one. The inconvenience would be regretted.
The guests should not expect the facilities, amenities, and luxuries typically available in the metro areas or any other developed tourist destination in India because the tourism infrastructure in Sikkim and the Darjeeling Hills region is not highly advanced.
The guests will be accompanied by an English/Hindi/Bangla-speaking driver cum guide. Upon arrival at the land port, airport, or railway station, all guests will be greeted and welcomed by our trained, equipped, and professional representative who will brief them on the tour and stay in touch with them until the tour concludes. We also have a local representative in most of the destinations who will meet you and assist you throughout the tour. In this manner, the guests will never leave feeling alone in an unknown location.
The itinerary specifies the opening and closing days for each of the tourist attractions.
On Thursdays, the majority of Darjeeling’s seven sightseeing points are closed. Forests are also closed on Thursdays.
In Gangtok, Sundays are a closed day at the Institute of Tibetology of Handicrafts and Handlooms.

A restricted Area Permit is required for entry into Sikkim for foreign passport holders, including Bangladeshis. The visitors can get this when entering Gangtok at the Rangpo Checkpoint. We advise visitors to provide copies of their passports and visas earlier so that these permits can be processed beforehand.
Foreign visitors including Bangladeshis to North Sikkim and Tsongmo Lake must be escorted by a local guide. To visit this area, guests will need a large vehicle (such as a Toyota Innova, Mahindra Scorpio, or Mahindra Xylo, etc.). Each vehicle is permitted to carry a maximum of 06 passengers (including infants). For the two-day Lachung trip, the supplement charge for each additional vehicle (if required) is 15,800 Indian rupees. The cost of an escort is already included in the package price.
