Why Sikkim & Darjeeling
Sikkim and Darjeeling sit side by side in the Eastern Himalayas, a region of terraced tea gardens, Buddhist monasteries and views of the Kanchenjunga massif. Gangtok's ridgeline bazaars, the glacial Tsomgo Lake, remote North Sikkim valleys and Darjeeling's toy train and colonial charm make this a compact yet varied Himalayan circuit, ideal for families, honeymooners and adventure travellers alike.
