Read MoreThis journey like all great journeys, starts in the happening city of Gangtok which is the home to most of Sikkim's economy as well as its traditional museums on architecture, zoology, botany as well as Tibetology. Namgyal Institute of Tibetology, Tsuklakhang Palace, and The Flower Exhibition Centre are testament to its glory! On the flip side, Gangtok is great for couples and college friends to spend some late nights at open-sky restaurants and be open-skyling at the gentle Himalayas.
On the far eastern side, via the Nathu La Pass, we can reach the Tsomgo Lake - a sacred body that remains frozen throughout the year. It is surrounded by banks laden with snow across which we can find domesticated yaks as a top tourist attraction. Driving a little further gets us to the Baba Mandir, erected as a monument of respect for the brave soldier Harbhajan Singh.
Once we have covered these phenomenal locations, it’s time to move towards North Sikkim. Another sacred lake that is a big part of your Sikkim itinerary for 11 days is the Gurudongmar Lake, located a little further from Lachen. Gurudongmar Lake is a high-altitude lake in Sikkim, located at 17,800 ft, visited by both Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims throughout the year. When at Lachen, we can spend a few hours at the Lachen Monastery and Thangu Valley. From here we drive to the other main attraction of the north, Lachung. From here we can host a one-day excursion to the Yuone-day Valley, a grassy trail surrounded by the majestic Himalayan mountains making it nothing short of paradise.
At the Chungthang confluence, both these rivers meet to form the tributary to Teesta. Close to this lies the stunning forested allies that conceal wonders like Bhim Nala waterfalls, Naga waterfalls, and Twin waterfalls.
On the other hand, the clearest view of the Kanchenjunga peak can be experienced at Pelling, so how can we miss this amazing destination on our 11-day trip to Sikkim? Pelling is a joyful town full of festivities and fun, with little cafeterias and handicraft shops in whole urban lands. A little further away lies the Khecheopalri Lake where villagers go to make wishes and pray to local deities. At a similar distance lie the Rabdentse Ruins - the remnants of Sikkim's second capital, destroyed by the Nepalese army in the 18th century.
Last but not least on the 11 Day Sikkim Itinerary, we have Darjeeling which is one of the most popular hill stations from the colonial era. Even today we can find architecture, gardens, and monuments that reflect the British influence of the 19th century. Darjeeling's top attractions include Tiger Hill, Batasia Loop, Ghoom Monastery, Himalayan Mountaineering Institute, and Lloyd's Botanical Garden. Recently, the iconic Darjeeling Himalayan Railway was declared a UNESCO Heritage site, so you must not miss out on that either!
Once you arrive at Bagdogra Airport or NJP Railway Station, our representative will pick you up and drive you to your hotel in Gangtok. This drive can take up to 6 hours and you will reach before the evening. Now you can relax as well as go out for a walk across the city and enjoy the nightlife.

Your 11-day Sikkim package is a visit to the Tsomgo Lake and Baba Mandir, both of which are situated at high altitudes and are almost always covered by layers of snow. In the winter the snowfall is so great that it blocks the roads leading to this area, which is why tourism in Eastern Sikkim is closed during this time.
Yumthang Valley's flowers bloom in April and May, painting in vibrant colors. In other seasons we can see a lush green valley.
