Sikkim Tour

Venkitesh Ramachandran

I recently book a trip in October with NatureWings after reading a lot of positive feedback especially their expertise in East Sikkim. Our plan was for 7N/8D covering North and East Sikkim. Through out my journey in North, every day i used to get calls from them inquiring about the travel comfort, stay etc. I was really surprised by that, but the joy did not last much once we started the East Sikkim trip. From handling of Permits,coordinating with driver, calling his friend to pass on all my details via whats app to get the permit on time was a real pain. This happened in-spite me providing all details on whats app and email at least 10 days prior to travel. On top of that when we reached Zuluk, the home stay guy said there was no communication given to them via phone or email about my stay. Luckily for us another family could not make it and we were allotted their room. Otherwise i would have to look for another place. Overall there were a bit of hick ups covering East as there was no coordinator like we had in South. For the price we are paying i would expect a much better service. Luckily the drivers were damn good and down to earth. From stay perceptive ... more

North Sikkim, Lachen Lachung Package Tour

Koushik Dutta

We just returned from the west Sikkim tour, packaged and arranged by ‘Naturewings’; route Gangtok – Kaluk - Pelling – Ravangla. Can’t wait to share few things here…the driver we got, was an experienced young locale chap, who knows the hills very well. He shared his little tips as a guide beyond just driving. Quality of the hotels were very high class. We got warm and comfortable rooms, along with the hot and fresh foods. Their hospitality touched our mind. The package was beyond our expectations within this price range. Overall, it was a life time experience for me and my family. We will look forward for more tours from ‘Naturewings’ in the future, for sure.

Biswajit Banerji

Recently went to West Sikkim - Ravangla, kaluk and Pelling through Naturewings. Thanks to excellent coordination by Sri Indrajeet Kar, the trip turned out to be a memorable one.The car provided was in nice shape and the driver very cooperative and amiable. All hotels/Resorts provided, especially the Mandarin Resort at Kaluk, afforded breathtaking view of Kanchenjunga along with warm hospitality and nice, hygienic food. The tour schedule, hotel vouchers, car details were intimated well in time beforehand and strictly followed. All in all a big thumbs up for Naturewings - Highly recommended.

West Sikkim Tour

Nishikant Jhunjhunwala

We just returned from a West Sikkim Tour and the trip was a memorable one. It was our 4 Night 5 Days trip, covering Pelling in 2 Nights and Ravangla in 2 nights. In Pelling, we stayed in Crassula Ovata retreat in the Upper Pelling helipad area. The hotel is a new one with a mesmerizing view of Mount Kanchanjhungha from my bed. The location and ambiance of the hotel are too good, and we enjoyed every bit of the moments we stayed there. Honestly, we were in no mood to go out sightseeing as the hotel gives us the perfect ambiance of peacefulness and tranquillity. In Ravangla also, we got a beautiful hotel, Barfung Retreat. This beautiful resort with a good room and a breathtaking view of snow peaks from our room. In both the hotels, the food was also good, and our driver from Bagdogra to Bagdogra was helpful and jovial. We must thank NatureWings for offering us such a memorable trip and will go through them once again in the North East India tour.

We Traveled to Pelling, Ravangla and Kaluk during this year's puja vacation. Best place to have a great view of the peaks of the Kanchanjangha range of Himalayas. Just get up around 5:00 am in October and could see the golden snow-capped mountain peaks from the rising sun (because of fewer clouds, and the possibility of getting a clear view of snow-clad peaks). Peaceful Pelling is famous for its sightseeing points like Shingshore Bridge, Sky-Walk and Monastery. We stayed in Hotel Sikkim Aurora, close to the Helipad, and on the top of the town. Most of the rooms are mountain facing, can see the peaks from the bed as well as bathrooms. Just relax and enjoy the show. I strongly recommend a visit over this place for a couple of days (minimum). Overall the hotels, cars and foods arrangement made by NatureWings was satisfactory and within budget.

Pelling, West Sikkim Tour

Ankita Tiwari

We had traveled through NatureWings with a family from Ahmedabad. It was a well-organized trip. After 5 hours of tedious journey from Bagdogra Airport, we reached the destination. Our joy was getting double throughout the way step by step. We were overwhelmed by its natural beauty. It was some more than I expected. The rooms were booked well in advance and well-maintained hotels. Mr. Indrajit provided good support in guiding us as we were traveling with a 4-year-old kid. We had a wonderful trip to the chilling weather in December. Hipped up with fresh enthusiasm, the trip to Pelling - West Sikkim was filled with thrills and comfort. I was able to explore from classical enrichment of Sikkimese architecture to its wild green side of nature. In case you are traveling to Sikkim, I would always suggest you NATUREWINGS from Kolkata as it holds the best information in and around Sikkim.

Gangtok North Sikkim Tour

Gangtok North Sikkim Tour

Seated conveniently in the lap of Mother Nature, Sikkim is one of the scenic places to explore in North East-India. This small state has so much to offer to the visitors right from nature to adventure, spiritualism to cultural and most importantly peace of mind to warm hearted people. Sikkim is one of those places that makes all the wishes of an avid traveller come true. In our 5N/6D tour, we offer the chance to explore the lesser explored part of Sikkim i.e., North Sikkim along with the famed capital city of Gangtok. This tour guarantees to take you on a ride of a fairytale land in every possible way.

Gangtok is the destination where tour commences. Blessed with beautiful landscape, majestic monasteries, rich culture and warm-hearted people, the capital city of Sikkim caters to all kinds of travellers and their different interests. We shall aim to explore the suburb located Tsomgo Lake, Baba Mandir and the Nathu Pass (if at all any spare time is left). Situated at an elevation of about 3753m, Tsomgo Lake is known for seasonal change in the colour of its water. For this reason, the local people consider the lake as sacred. Tsomgo is also to home several species of birds including Brahminy Ducks and wild animals like Red Panda.

The 6 hours drive through winding roads and scenic terrains will take us to Lachen, which is known for its unexploited beauty. At 2590m, Lachen is the starting point for some of the most interesting treks in North Sikkim and is the gateway to the alpine Guru Dongmar and Tso Lhamu lakes. Lachen was once served as the winter home of the shepherds who spent their summers on the alpine pastures bordering Tibet with their yaks. Lachen is now a popular base camp for trekking in North Sikkim. On our tour, we shall be witnessing the majestic Gurudongmar Lake, which is the highest lake in Sikkim and is situated at an altitude of 5181m. The crystal clear lake is surrounded by snow-clad mountains,fluttering Buddhist Prayers Flags and a temple in that adds more to the spiritual feel of the place. Gurudongmar remains frozen throughout the winter but in summers, visitors can enjoy looking at its sparkling water.

Lachung is a scenic mountain village that boasts of its lofty snow-capped mountain peaks, scenic waterfalls, sparkling brooks and apple and apricot orchards. There is also a handicraft centre at Lachung that offers a glimpse of skills of people of Sikkim. Our main place of visit would in Lachung would be the Yumthang Valley, which is a grazing pasture surrounded by the mountains. Yumthang is also known as Valley of Flowers is situated at an altitude of 3,564 metres. The valley is a home to the famed Shingba Rhododendron Sanctuary that has over twenty-four species of the Rhododendron flowers. Adding to the beauty is a tributary of River Teesta that flows through the valley and the town of Lachung. Yumthang is an ideal place for spending a blissful time amidst nature, it also gives one the opportunity to reconnect with Mother Nature and see its bounty. We shall also visit the hot water spring that is believed to have medicinal properties. On our way back from Lachung, we shall stop by to watch the beauty of Bheema and Twin Waterfalls.

Monsoon (Jul to Mid Sep)

This is the time when the state gets maximum rainfall. Sikkim is an ideal place to enjoy Indian monsoon with lush green valleys, hills along with beautiful clouds & fog. But heavy rain increases the risk of landslide during monsoon.  We do not recommend to visit North Sikkim during monsoon.

Autumn (Mid Sep to Nov)

Just after monsoon this is probably the best time to travel with clear sky & moderate temperature.  It is also a good time for photography.

Winter (Dec to Feb)

These are the coolest months & some part of state receives a good volume of snowfall. One can have snow in North district & part of East district. Sikkim is a place with some of the highest snow capped peaks of the world. Though the route to Gurudongmar Lake or Yumthang Valley might be blocked blocked any time due to heavy snow fall.

Review – North Sikkim tour 3 nights 4 days 

Our trip to North Sikkim for 3 nights, encompassing Gurudongmar Lake, Yumthang and Yumesamdong was planned excellently by Navigator India, courtesy Mr Saikat Das. Full credit goes to Mr Das for arranging the hotel bookings, vehicle and permits. The vehicle itself was very comfortable, and the driver, Mr Raaz, was very friendly and approachable. Not once did we face any hassle or problem during our entire trip. Mr Das and his tour agency will be our first choice for any future trips in this region. Overall, it was a memorable experience for me and my friends.

What people love about sikkim tours.

Overall in India we find that and have opportunity to go on an 11-day tour of North East India and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The tour package was well-organized and covered all the major destinations in the region, giving us a comprehensive overview of the culture, history, and natural beauty of this lesser-explored part of India. The tour started in Guwahati, the gateway to North East India, where we were greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable tour guide. From there, we traveled to Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya, known as the 'Scotland of the East' for its stunning landscapes and pleasant climate. We visited the famous Umiam Lake, also known as Barapani Lake, and were mesmerized by its crystal clear water and surrounding hills. Next, we headed to Cherrapunjee, one of the wettest places on earth, where we got to witness the spectacular Seven Sisters Waterfall and the living root bridges, a unique and fascinating man-made wonder. The tour also took us to Mawlynnong, known as the cleanest village in Asia, and we were amazed by its pristine surroundings and the warm hospitality of the locals. We then continued our journey to Kaziranga National Park, home to the famous one-horned rhinoceros. We were lucky enough to spot these magnificent creatures during our safari in the park. The tour also included a visit to Majuli Island, the world's largest river island, where we got to experience the unique Assamese culture and enjoy a traditional dance performance. The highlight of the tour was our visit to Tawang, located in the state of Arunachal Pradesh, which is home to the second-largest Buddhist monastery in the world. The monastery was a sight to behold, and we were fortunate to witness the daily rituals and prayers of the monks. The tour also took us to the picturesque Sela Pass, which offered breathtaking views of the Himalayan mountains. Throughout the tour, we were impressed by the beauty and diversity of North East India. The accommodations provided were comfortable and the food was delicious, giving us a taste of the local cuisine. Our tour guide was highly knowledgeable and shared interesting insights about the places we visited. Overall, I would highly recommend this 11-day tour package to anyone looking to explore the exotic North East region of India. It was a perfect blend of nature, culture, and adventure, and I returned home with a deeper appreciation for this lesser-known part of our country.
Eine sehr gute organisierte Reise. Die Übergabe von Guide zu Guide und Fahrer und Fahrer funktionierte perfekt. Guides und Fahrer sind empfehlenswert. Die Hotels waren wie versprochen, einfache aber gute. Nur eines war dem Schlechtwetter nicht gewachsen und definitiv zu kalt. Für die Blooming Season im Yumthang waren wir um ca. drei Wochen zu früh. Es gab aber spannende Einblicke in Religion und Kultur. Ich würde die Reise wieder machen, nur ein wenig später.

Here's a bit more detail about each: Sikkim: Sikkim is a state located in the northeastern part of India, nestled in the eastern Himalayas. It is known for its stunning natural beauty, including lush green valleys, snow-capped peaks, pristine lakes, and dense forests. Sikkim is one of the smallest states in India by land area but is rich in biodiversity and cultural diversity. The state offers a wide range of attractions and activities, including trekking, mountaineering, wildlife viewing, and visits to monasteries and historical sites. Sikkim shares its borders with Tibet (China) to the north, Bhutan to the east, Nepal to the west, and the Indian state of West Bengal to the south Gangtok: Gangtok is the capital and largest town in Sikkim. It serves as the political, cultural, and economic center of the state. Gangtok is situated in the eastern part of Sikkim and is known for its scenic beauty and pleasant climate. The town is surrounded by the Himalayan ranges and offers breathtaking views of the mountains. Gangtok is a popular tourist destination and serves as a gateway for travelers exploring various parts of Sikkim. It has a mix of modern amenities and traditional charm, with attractions like monasteries, markets, and viewpoints.

Which is colder Sikkim or Darjeeling?

Sikkim, as a state, encompasses various elevations and climates, so the temperature can vary depending on the specific location and time of year. In general, Sikkim has a wide range of temperatures, from subtropical in the lower regions to alpine in the higher areas. Darjeeling, on the other hand, is known for its cooler climate due to its higher elevation. It's a hill station located at an altitude of around 6,700 feet (2,042 meters) above sea level, and its climate is considered more temperate compared to many parts of Sikkim. In terms of general temperature comparisons: Darjeeling: Darjeeling tends to be cooler than the lower-altitude areas of Sikkim. Summers in Darjeeling are mild, with daytime temperatures ranging from 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F). Winters are colder, with temperatures dropping to around 2°C to 7°C (36°F to 45°F). It can occasionally experience snowfall during the winter months. Sikkim: The temperatures in Sikkim can vary widely based on the elevation. In places like Gangtok (the capital of Sikkim) at a lower elevation, the temperatures are milder and more moderate, similar to Darjeeling. However, in higher-altitude areas of Sikkim, such as Lachung, Lachen, or areas around Nathula Pass, temperatures can be significantly colder, especially during the winter months, often dropping below freezing.

Does Gangtok have snow?

Yes, Gangtok, the capital and largest town of Sikkim, does receive snowfall, but it typically occurs during the winter months. Gangtok is situated at an elevation of approximately 5,410 feet (1,650 meters) above sea level, which means that while it does experience cold weather in the winter, it doesn't receive heavy or prolonged snowfall like higher-altitude areas in Sikkim. Here's what you can expect regarding snowfall in Gangtok: Winter Snowfall: Gangtok may experience occasional light snowfall during the winter months, particularly in December, January, and February. However, the snowfall in Gangtok is usually not heavy, and it may not accumulate significantly on the ground. Snow-Covered Surroundings: While Gangtok itself may not be covered in deep snow, the surrounding areas at higher elevations, such as Tsomgo Lake (Changu Lake), Nathula Pass, and higher mountain regions, often receive more substantial snowfall and can provide a snowy landscape during the winter. Road Closures: When there is snowfall, especially in the higher regions of Sikkim, it can lead to temporary road closures, including the Nathula Pass route, due to safety concerns. It's important to check road conditions and any travel advisories if you plan to visit these areas during the winter. While Gangtok may not offer a consistently snowy experience, it can still be a charming destination to visit in the winter with its cool and crisp weather, making it a great time to enjoy the local culture and natural beauty. If you specifically want to experience heavy snowfall, you may need to plan excursions to higher-altitude areas within Sikkim during the winter season.

How many days required to visit Gangtok?

The number of days required to visit Gangtok can vary depending on your interests, the specific places you want to explore in and around Gangtok, and your travel pace. However, a typical itinerary for Gangtok usually ranges from 2 to 4 days. Here's a general guideline for how you can plan your time in Gangtok: 2 Days in Gangtok: If you have limited time, you can spend a quick two days in Gangtok to see some of its major attractions. This would involve a somewhat rushed schedule but can give you a taste of the town. Day 1: Explore the city center, visit attractions like MG Marg (the main market), Enchey Monastery, and Hanuman Tok. Day 2: Take a day trip to the nearby attractions, such as Rumtek Monastery, Banjhakri Falls, and the Namgyal Institute of Tibetology. 3 Days in Gangtok: Spending three days in Gangtok allows for a more relaxed experience, and you can explore additional places. Day 1 and Day 2: Follow the itinerary for a 2-day trip, as mentioned above. Day 3: Visit the Tsomgo Lake and Baba Mandir (if they are open to tourists; permits are required), or you can explore more of Gangtok's local culture and cuisine. 4 Days or More: With four or more days in Gangtok, you can explore the town at a leisurely pace and also consider nearby destinations like Nathula Pass and Changu Lake. Day 1 and Day 2: Follow the itinerary for a 2-day trip in Gangtok. Day 3: Visit Tsomgo Lake and Baba Mandir (if you haven't already) or explore nearby areas like Tashi Viewpoint, Ganesh Tok, or the Flower Exhibition Centre. Day 4: Take a day trip to Nathula Pass (if it's open to tourists during your visit; permits are required), which is a high-altitude border pass with China. You can also visit Changu Lake on the way.

Testimonials

We had recently availed the services of "Beera 'N' Baan" Tours and Travels for our trip in Sikkim and had wonderful & memorable experiences. Both Mr. Roshan Nepal and Mr. Utsav Nepal are very knowledgeable tour guides. They were also very pleasant, courteous, patient and always helpful as per the tourists' requirements. The vehicle in which we travelled was very comfortable. We would highly recommend for availing services from "Beera 'N' Baan" Tours and Travels to anyone planning to visit Sikkim for the best experiences.

Roshan accompanied us from Gangtok - Lachen - Lachung - Gangtok and during this journey we visited the Gurudongmar Lake, Yumthang Valley and zero point. The car was in an excellent condition. Roshan was very accommodating with all our requests and he would also recommend some offbeat places to visit. He was always on time and also kind enough to drive us to the medical store in a different city due to an emergency. Overall, it was a memorable experience and a wonderful journey with his service. Will definitely recommend Beeranbaan if you are looking for flexibility and a hassle free - fun trip.

Our eight day Sikkim tour was going great, but it had to be called off on the sixth day due to the news of corona virus pandemic. The team handled the travel restrictions professionally. We were promised the rest of the destinations at the same package. It was a great stay and we would like to be back to complete the rest of the trip soon.

Indian Nationals intending to visit Sikkim do not require any special permit while visiting some of the unrestricted areas like Gangtok, Yuksom, Rumtek, Pemayangtse, Phodong etc, but visiting certain areas of North Sikkim like Yumthang Valley, Chungthang, Lachung, Yumesamdong, Lachen, Thangu, Chopta and Gurudongmar Lake, it is mandatory even for Indian nationals also to obtain a permit.

Foreign Nationals intending to visit Sikkim can obtain a permit for an initial period of 15 days which is extendable up to 30 days. The permits can be arranged very easily at several places such as Siliguri, Darjeeling, Rongpo and Malli. These permits can also be obtained from Indian Embassy at different places. Foreign tourists have to travel in groups of two or more to visit restricted and protected areas of Sikkim like Yumthang Valley, as they are not allowed to club and go with Indian tourists.

There are however further restrictions on visiting several places deeper inside Sikkim. Both domestic and foreign visitors require special permits to visit Tsongo and Nathula area which is a day tour from Gangtok. Foreigners can only visit Tsongo and not Nathula.

Restricted Area Permit and Protected Area Permit Regime

Sikkim has certain entry restrictions and is under a restricted area regime due to its proximity with neighbouring countries like China. This State is divided into 3 areas based on travel restrictions. Some parts require Protected Area Permit (PAP) while some require Restricted Area Permit (RAP). Therefore all foreign nationals require Restricted Area Permit to visit any part of Sikkim. Earlier this permit was known as Inner Line Permit (ILP). Indians however do not require this but there are other restrictions for all including Indians for few specific places in Sikkim. There are certain areas like Tsomgo Lake, Dzongri etc which are defined as Protected Areas and have special army deployment. Both foreigners and Indians require a Protected Area Permit (PAP) to visit such places. But few protected border areas like Nathulla are not accessible to foreigners at all, while Indians can still visit with the Protected Area Permit.

Restricted Area Permits (RAP) This permit is mandatory only for foreigners who wish to enter Sikkim. It is free of cost. All that is required is a valid Passport along with an Indian visa. With proper documentation, it takes less than 30 minutes to get the permit. Protected Area Permits (PAP) This permit is applicable for both foreigners and Indians intending to visit protected areas. Solo foreigners are not permitted in such areas. Additionally foreign tourists wanting to go trekking in the interiors of Sikkim should apply for the PAP through tour operators who are registered with Sikkim Tourism Department and the trekking programme should be arranged by them. Photo ID proof like passport, voter's ID card or a driving license would be the required documentation.
