Sikkim Tours & Itineraries
The brief
Sikkim tours by MyTripMyTravel are private, chauffeured, escorted circuits across the eastern himalaya, buddhist monasteries, ridge towns, frontier altitude. 3 packages available as starting architectures; the planning desk customises duration, hotels, stops, and pace. Every itinerary runs on the GPS-tracked Elite Fleet protocol with monument and venue access handled end to end.
Sikkim is small, contained, and intense, Kanchenjunga always visible on a clear morning, Buddhist culture intact, and a north-Sikkim altitude leg (Lachen / Lachung / Gurudongmar / Yumthang) that requires protected-area permits and acclimatised pacing. Packages are limited; most Sikkim missions are bespoke.
Allow 5 to 8 days minimum for a real circuit: Gangtok base, west to Pelling for Kanchenjunga, and north to Lachung or Lachen for the high valleys. The South-Sikkim Ravangla ridge is the gentle, lower-altitude alternative.

Sikkim tours FAQ
How many Sikkim tour packages are available?
3 Sikkim packages are listed as starting architectures; each is fully customisable, and the planning desk routinely combines and extends them.
Can I customise the Sikkim itinerary?
Entirely. Every package is a starting architecture; we adjust duration, hotels, stops, and pace to your party while keeping the regional character intact.
Are Sikkim tours private?
Always, a single party with a dedicated chauffeur on the GPS-tracked Elite Fleet protocol. Never shared or pooled.
Can I extend Sikkim into another region?
Yes, the same chauffeured fleet continues seamlessly. Sikkim routinely combines with the Golden Triangle (Delhi-Agra-Jaipur) and the wider Indian circuit.
How many days do I need for Sikkim?
Five to six days covers Gangtok, Tsomgo Lake and Pelling's Kanchenjunga views; eight days adds the north-Sikkim valleys of Lachung and Yumthang. The mountain roads are slow, so we don't rush the circuit.
Do I need permits for Sikkim?
Yes, foreign nationals need an inner-line permit to enter, plus protected-area permits for restricted zones like Tsomgo Lake and north Sikkim. We arrange all of them; we just need passport details in advance.
Will I see Kanchenjunga?
Pelling gives one of India's best chances of a clear view of the world's third-highest peak, especially at dawn, but mountains make their own weather. October to December offers the crispest odds; we build in an early Pelling morning to maximise it.
When should I visit Sikkim?
March to May for rhododendron blooms and generally clear skies, or October to December for the sharpest Kanchenjunga views. The June to September monsoon brings landslide risk on the mountain roads and is best avoided.
