1. What is the best time to visit Sikkim, and how does it affect my tour package?
The best time to visit Sikkim is from March to June (Spring/Summer) for pleasant weather and outdoor activities, or October to
December (autumn/winter) for clear skies and snow in higher altitudes. SikkimTourPackage.in packages are tailored to
seasonal highlights—summer for exploring, winter for snow experiences.
2. How do I reach Sikkim, and is transportation included in the packages?
Sikkim is accessible via Bagdogra Airport (IXB) in West Bengal (124 km from Gangtok) or New Jalpaiguri Railway Station
(NJP, 120 km from Gangtok). Pakyong Airport in Sikkim offers limited flights. Most of our packages include airport/railway
station pick-up and drop-off, plus local transportation in Sikkim via private vehicles, depending on your plan. Please
check package details for specifics.
3. Do I need any permits to visit Sikkim, and how are they arranged?
Indian nationals don’t need permits for most areas but require an Inner Line Permit (ILP) for restricted zones like Nathula
Pass, North Sikkim Packages like Gurudongmar Lake, or Zero Point. Foreign nationals need a Restricted Area Permit (RAP).
We assist with permit arrangements for all our packages. Just provide your ID details (Voter Card, Passport) at booking,
and we’ll handle the rest.
4. What should I pack for a Sikkim trip based on your packages?
Pack warm clothing (jackets, thermals) for higher altitudes, especially in winter or North Sikkim. Comfortable walking
shoes are a must for sightseeing and trekking. In summer, light layers with a jacket for evenings work well. Rain gear
is recommended during monsoons. Don’t forget sunscreen, sunglasses, and any personal medications—our itineraries often
include high-altitude areas.

in Gangtok. These are conducted by certified operators with safety gear and trained guides. Let us know your preferences,
and we’ll ensure a safe, thrilling experience.
7. What kind of accommodations can I expect in your packages?
We offer a range from good 3-star and luxury hotels to premium 4 to 5 Star properties depending on your
package. In Gangtok, expect modern amenities; in remote areas like Lachung or Lachen, stays are comfortable but simpler
due to the terrain. All properties are vetted for cleanliness and service with specific names are listed in your itinerary.

destinations. Our team monitors conditions and keeps you updated.
