Sikkim is a land of green horizons made up of lush green valleys, nestled between massive mountain walls, cascading rivers pouring down from different glaciers, dense forests and of course, snow-capped mountain ranges that mesmerize visitors with their beauty, glory and greatness. Sikkim is a large state and tourist destinations, ranging from world famous hot spots to unconventional and unexplored villages, are scattered all over the walls of the verdant Himalayas. It is very difficult for one to cover all of Sikkim in one trip; such is the vastness of the state. You can cover the state partially by taking advantage of different Sikkim packages that are specially designed to allow visitors to explore the main places in particular regions of the state.

Every corner of Sikkim is beautiful and enchanting and therefore you as a nature lover may have a hard time deciding on an area. While East Sikkim is known for the Silk Road route, which covers magnificent destinations like Zuluk, Thambi View Point, Lunghthung and Nathang Valley, West Sikkim is popular all over the world for Pelling, the fascinating hill station that offers a majestic view of Kanchenjhungha. North Sikkim packages are also big sellers as they cover enchanting villages like Lachen, Lachung, the picturesque Yumthang Valley, and heavenly abodes like Gurudongmar Lake, Katau, and Zero Point. South Sikkim, which is the most unexplored area of ​​the Himalayan state, also has a lot of charm as there are picturesque places like Ravangla, Namchi and Boron. Also, there are hot spots like Gangtok, Nathu La Pass, Tsango Lake and Baba Mandir in Sikkim which witness huge crowds throughout the year.

So before making use of a Sikkim package, you should decide the way you would like to explore this mountainous state. If you are ready to endure the fatigue of a long journey through rugged roads that finally ends in an indescribably beautiful area, then you must choose from North Sikkim packages. To travel to North Sikkim, you will need a special permit, which your tour operator will arrange for you from Gangtok. You simply have to contact your hotel or a travel agency in Gangtok for this. From Gangtok you can also take advantage of the local tour package to visit Tsango Lake, Nathu La Pass and Baba Mandir. South and West Sikkim are far from Gangtok and therefore you should take advantage of Siliguri or Kolkata packages. Many Kolkata-based tour companies offer packages that cover the top attractions of West and South Sikkim beautifully. You can also make use of a package that combines these two areas. Since the distance between the south and west area of ​​Sikkim is not far, most of the tourist attractions are common.

You just need to ask your hotel to provide you with a car and necessary documents to travel in the area, which is under strict surveillance by the Indian Army. You will need to start your journey from Ling Tam or Aritar in the early hours of the morning when the sky is totally dark, so that you can reach Lungthung before the sun rises. On your Silk Road journey, you can also choose to stay for a day or two in Zuluk, the beautifully situated village in a picturesque valley where villagers offer rooms in their houses to visitors.
