Popular Tour Packages

Explore ready-to-plan holidays across Sikkim, Darjeeling and the Eastern Himalayas.

Every package here is quoted on request. What a trip costs depends on your travel dates, the hotel category you want and the size of your group, so we price it for your own trip rather than advertise a rate that would have to change. Tell us the dates and the numbers and you get a figure before anything is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I customise a tour package?

Yes. Every package listed here is a starting point rather than a fixed departure, so nights, stops and hotel category are all changed to suit the people travelling. Tell us what you want different and we will rework it.

Can I combine Sikkim and Darjeeling?

Yes, and it is one of the most common requests. They sit on opposite sides of the Teesta and the road between is short. Six to eight nights is the comfortable range for both; Kalimpong in the middle turns one long transfer day into two short ones.

Can you help with hotels and homestays?

Yes. We book hotels in the towns and homestays on the ridges to the category and budget you give us. Silk Route Tours also lists homestays across Sikkim on its main website.

Can I request different travel dates?

Yes. Nothing on this page is a fixed departure, so the dates are yours to choose. Some things do depend on the calendar, such as the high North Sikkim passes and the Tiger Hill sunrise, and we will say so when they affect your plan.

Do you arrange local transportation?

Yes. Transfers from NJP railway station or Bagdogra airport and the sightseeing vehicle are part of the packages that list transfers. The vehicle runs to the itinerary on a point-to-point basis rather than staying at your disposal.

Do I need permits, and will you arrange them?

Parts of Sikkim are protected areas: North Sikkim beyond Chungthang, Tsomgo Lake and Nathu La all need permits issued against original photo ID and passport photographs, and some are open to Indian nationals only. We apply on your behalf and tell you what to carry. Darjeeling and Kalimpong need no permit.

Do you arrange family and group tours?

Yes, and group size changes the price, so it is worth telling us the real number. Some packages on the main Silk Route Tours site carry published group discounts.

How do I enquire about a package?

Use the form on this page. Destination, dates, how many of you and a mobile number is enough to start. You can also call or WhatsApp +91 80162 57040 directly.

What happens after I submit an enquiry?

It reaches the team at Silk Route Tours in Namchi, and someone contacts you on the number you gave to go through the detail. Nothing is booked and nothing is charged at the enquiry stage.
