Tour Darjeeling and Sikkim around Mt. Kangchendzonga (8586m/28,162 ft), the world's third highest mountain. Sikkim and Darjeeling provide a great environment for the Himalaya Mountains due to its mild climate, magnificent slopes, pine woods, and valleys with large stretches of green tea plantations.
Sikkim is a Buddhist-dominated region. Sikkim highlights the culture and significance of the Sikkimese form of Buddhism, with its many Buddhist temples, monasteries, and learning institutions.
Sikkim, a Tibetan Buddhist stronghold, is home to approximately two hundred monasteries, the majority of which are inhabited by Lepchas, Nepalese, Tibetans, Indians, and Bhutanese. Foreigners were just recently allowed to enter the region. Darjeeling, chosen by the British Raj as their hill resort due to its warm climate and natural beauty, remains a famous hill station among both Indian and foreign visitors.
Detailed Itinerary of Discover Sikkim and Darjeeling
We arrive in Bagdora, Siliguri by either flight or drive from Kakarvitta. From Bagdora airport, our representative will pick you up and drive you towards Kalimpong. The drive is three hours long. Overnight in Kalimpong.
Kalimpong is a lively market town in the Himalayas' rolling slopes and deep valleys. Because of its moderate environment and accessibility to renowned tourist destinations in the region, Kalimpong has become an important tourist destination. Later on, we will travel to Gangtok in the evening.
Gangtok full with breathtaking sights that would leave you speechless. Today, you will visit Tashi View Point, Ganesh Tok, Hanuman Tok, Flower Show, Cottage Industry and Handicraft Centre, Institute of Tibetology, Dro-dul Chorten, Enchey Monastery, and Banjakhri Falls, according to your program (maximum 6 hours). Dinner and overnight stay at a hotel in Gangtok
The journey from Gangkot to Pelling takes 4 hrs and is 126 km long. We will make a stop in Namchi on the way from Gangtok to Pelling. The sightseeing includes at Temi Tea Garden, Samdruptse, and Siddheshwar Dham (Chardham). The Siddheshwar Dham contains a duplicate of all 12 Jyotirlingas, four Dhams, and a 108-foot-tall monument of Lord Shiva. When you arrive in Pelling, we will transfer to a hotel for the night and dinner.
Khecheopalri Lake is located 34 kilometers northwest of Pelling, Sikkim, and around 147 kilometers from Gangtok, Sikkim's major town and capital. A new tourism location that Buddhists see as a hallowed pilgrimage place. The gorgeous Khecheopalri lake is also thought by the locals to be a wish-fulfilling lake, making it more appealing to tourists. A monastery with woodlands on all sides stands at the lake's entrance. Khecheopalri Lake in Pelling is a one-of-a-kind combination of natural and mystical beauty that is well worth seeing and experiencing. The drive takes about 3 hours. Later on, we will end our day with a drive to Darjeeling.
Darjeeling is called the "Queen of the hills". It is popular for its dense evergreen forests and lush green tea plantations. There are several tourist spots to explore in Darjeeling, a breath-taking town located cosily on the foothills of Himalayas. The pristine splendor of this breathtakingly attractive village provides a reprieve from the hectic city life, attracting people from all over the country. Tiger Hill appears to have created quite an impression among travelers among the various tourist attractions in Darjeeling, because this site is a full package for nature and snow enthusiasts. Another reason to visit Darjeeling is to ride the Himalayan Railway, which is famous for its Train ride with beautiful mountain vistas. Next on the list is Darjeeling's Ropeway, which was built to provide tourists with breathtaking vistas of lush tea farms that are not easily accessible. Apart from the aforementioned sites, you should also visit Batasia Loop, Ghoom Monastery, Rock Garden, and Peace Pagoda. Clearly, the list of locations to see in Darjeeling is virtually endless.
We end our tour in Darjeeling and drive towards Bagdogra to the airport.

It was an excellent and memorable trip arranged by creative adventure. We were 15 family members planned for pilgrimage trip but later combined adventures too for the sake of our kids. From the arrival and till departure, Ramesh Ji ‘s support was excellent. He was able to reach even at night for some emergencies. Excellent vehicles were provided and especially kind and experienced drivers were arranged. Because of the change in climatic conditions , our flight got cancelled and we were supposed to do road travel. We afraid a lot but the drivers were really experienced and helped us a lot in all aspects. Food arranged in hotels were really good. ( Only concern was they could have separated veg n non veg in different places n not on the same counters). Especially chef in landmark Kathmandu was so kind n prepared food specially for us. Cultural village in Janakpur also provided homely n decent food. We had a great n enjoyable trip all over. Thanks Ramesh Ji for arranging everything. We definitely recommend Creative adventure to everyone.
