Sometimes a place feels less like a destination and more like a dream you step into. North Bengal and Sikkim fall into that category. Now you can experience rolling tea gardens, prayer flags fluttering against snow-kissed peaks, and towns that hum with a rhythm slower and calmer than the world you left behind. That’s the charm of Sikkim tourism. With IRCTC Tourism’s Sikkim Silver package, you get to explore Darjeeling, Gangtok, and Kalimpong in a way that combines comfort, culture, and breathtaking landscapes.
This 6-day journey is about discovering why the Eastern Himalayas hold a special place in the hearts of travelers who come once and then keep returning. From the sunrise at Tiger Hill to the tranquil waters of Tsomgo Lake, every moment feels like a postcard.
This curated itinerary takes care of travel, stay, meals, and insurance, so all you need to do is soak in the views. If you’re looking for a Darjeeling tour package, this single journey ties them all together beautifully.
