Sikkim & Darjeeling Tour
Sikkim

Sikkim is a land of magnificent rhododendrons and orchids, peppered with vibrantly coloured monasteries. But it is most popular as the host to Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world.

Orchid Sanctuaries : Around 454 species of Orchids are on display in the Orchid Sanctuary. Another, much larger, orchid sanctuary, is the ‘Orchidarium’, alongside Rani Khola.

Kanchenjunga National Park : Access to the heart of this magnificent place, including the vast Zemu Glacier, is generally only permitted to mountaineering expeditions, or experienced trekking parties, using the services of a recognized travel agency.

Trekking in Sikkim : The Pelling-Khecheopari trek links interesting villages interspersed with sparkling lakes. The most popular trek yet is the one from Yuksom-Dzongri-Goecha La for superb views of the Kunchenjunga. The Khecheopari, a sacred lake, surrounded by prayer flags and forested hills, too is a major tourist attraction.

Darjeeling

General Information
Straddling a ridge at 2134m and surrounded by a tea plantations, Darjeeling has been a popular hill station since the British established it as an R&R centre for their troops in mid-1800s. People come here now, as they did then, to escape the heat, humidity and hassle of the north Indian plain. You get an indication of how popular Darjeeling is from the 70 or so hotels recognised by the tourist office and the scores of others which don't come up to its requirements. Here you will find yourself surrounded by mountain people from all over the eastern Himalaya who have come to work, to trade or - in the case of the Tibetans - as refugees.

Outside of the monsoon season (June to September), the views over the mountains to the snowy peaks of Kanchenjunga and down to the swollen rivers in the valleys are magnificent. Darjeeling is a fascinating place where you can see Buddhist monasteries, visit a tea plantation and see how the tea is processed, go for a ride on the chairlift, spend days hunting for bargains in colourful markets and handicrafts shops, or go trekking to high-altitude spots for closer views of Kanchenjunga.
Like many places in the Himalaya, half the fun is in getting there and Darjeeling has the unique attraction of its famous toy train . This miniature train loops and switchbacks its way up the steep mountainsides from New Jalpaiguri to Darjeeling.
