Itinerary
Arrival, Transfer to Gangtok & Evening at MG Road
Arrival at Bagdogra Airport / New Jalpaiguri (NJP) Railway Station. Meet and greet by our representative and drive to Gangtok (approx. 4-5 hours) via beautiful foothills. Check-in to the hotel and rest. In the evening, enjoy a relaxed walk at MG Road (Lachung's popular Mall Road is celebrated for local handicrafts in winter), visit nearby viewpoints or a local monastery depending on arrival time.
Activities: Airport/Railway pick-up, scenic drive to Gangtok, evening stroll and light refreshments.
Tip: Start early if you arrive the previous night at Siliguri to avoid traffic and make the most of the day.
Drive to Lachung — Mountain Passes & Waterfalls
After an early breakfast, drive from Gangtok to Lachung (approx. 6-7 hours) through scenic mountain roads. En route, stop at viewpoints like Singhik Viewpoint (views of Teesta Valley), Seven Sisters Waterfall, and the Teesta River panorama. Proceed via Mangan and small hamlets as you climb to the Lachung valley. Check-in, acclimatize, and take a short walk to Lachung Monastery.
Activities: Scenic photography stops, light treks around the village, local meals.
Note: Roads can be narrow and winding—travel time may vary with weather.
Yumthang Valley & Zero Point Excursion — Snow & Hot Springs
Full-day excursion to Yumthang Valley (approx. 1.5–2 hours from Lachung). Spend time in the valley taking in the snow-clad meadows, rhododendron slopes (if visible), and panoramic Himalayan views. Visit Yumthang Hot Springs to relax in natural warm waters — a unique winter experience. If weather and road conditions permit, continue to Yumesamdong / Zero Point for spectacular high-altitude snowfields and wide vistas.
Return to Lachung in the late afternoon. Evening at leisure.
Important: Zero Point access is weather-dependent; if closed, enjoy extended time in Yumthang Valley and nearby photo points.
Return to Gangtok — Leisure & Local Sightseeing
After breakfast, check out and drive back to Gangtok. En route, stop for photographs and short breaks. On arrival in Gangtok, check-in and relax. Optionally visit Rumtek Monastery or the Flower Exhibition Centre (seasonal). Spend the evening shopping for local handicrafts and Sikkim specialties.
Activities: Scenic return drive, optional Rumtek visit, evening leisure on MG Road.
Tip: Use this evening to purchase warm local woolens and souvenirs.

Recent Sikkim Reviews
Sikkim for Two Without Any Budget Surprises
My wife and I were comparing packages for Sikkim and I'd already spent two evenings trying to piece it together myself — flights, cabs, hotels separately. The TourGrids quote came in lower than what I was calculating on my own, and everything was included: airport transfers, a proper mid-range hotel in Gangtok, sightseeing cabs, and even a few meals. No hidden charges when we actually travelled, which honestly I was half-expecting. The coordinator was easy to reach on WhatsApp and sorted our room upgrade question on call within the hour. For a 6-night trip, the value was genuinely hard to argue with. We'd been unsure about handing over the planning — turned out to be the right call.
Our Sikkim Coordinator Never Left Us On Hold
My husband and I were planning our first proper trip to Sikkim and honestly had no idea where to start. A friend suggested TourGrids, so I reached out on WhatsApp. The coordinator assigned to us, Rohit, was genuinely responsive — like, replying within minutes even on evenings. He built the entire itinerary around our dates, suggested which monasteries were actually worth visiting, and confirmed every hotel and cab before we even landed. When our connecting flight got delayed, he had already spoken to the driver and rescheduled the pickup by the time I messaged him. No scrambling, no confusion. The hotels were proper good too. Billing was transparent, no surprise charges at the end.
Sikkim Stays Turned Out Genuinely Impressive
We had booked a Sikkim trip for our honeymoon and honestly had no idea what to expect from TourGrids. From the first WhatsApp conversation, the coordinator was patient and helped us pick properties that actually matched what we were looking for — not just whatever was cheapest. The hotels in Gangtok and Pelling were proper good, clean rooms, nice views, and no unpleasant surprises at check-in. Cab transfers between locations were already arranged and drivers were on time every single day. Mountain roads can be unpredictable but everything ran without any confusion. Billing was transparent, no hidden charges added later. Really glad we trusted them with such an important trip.
Cab Rebooked Before I Even Panicked
Our cab driver in Sikkim called in sick on day three — right when we had the Tsomgo Lake visit planned. My wife and I were just sitting at the hotel not knowing what to do. I dropped a WhatsApp to our TourGrids coordinator and honestly within 20 minutes a replacement cab was confirmed with a proper driver who knew the route well. No extra charge, no back and forth. The rest of the trip ran exactly as planned — hotels were proper good, especially the one in Gangtok with the mountain view. This was our first trip fully planned through someone else and it genuinely felt like someone had our back throughout.
Sikkim Hotels Alone Were Worth Every Rupee
Traveled to Sikkim with my wife last month and honestly the accommodations TourGrids arranged were a cut above what I expected at that price point. The property in Gangtok had proper mountain views and the resort near Pelling was cozy and well-located — not some random budget place. What also stood out was the cab arrangement. Driver was always on time, knew the routes well, and the vehicle was comfortable for the hilly terrain. Our coordinator Priya was responsive on WhatsApp throughout the trip. We had one small timing issue on day two and she got it fixed quickly over a call. No surprise charges at checkout either — everything was exactly as discussed.
