SIKKIM TRAVEL GUIDE

EXPLORING THE LAND OF CLOUDS.

Gateway to the East

Gangtok is the capital of Sikkim and the primary hub for the East Sikkim circuit (Tsomgo Lake, Nathula Pass). Most groups from Kolkata take 4-5 days for the circuit. Booking a dedicated Tempo Traveller from Rahigo ensures you have the same vehicle for the long transit and local Sikkim movements, subject to state permit rules.

Permit & Border Logistics

Entering Sikkim requires specific state permits at Rangpo. Our platform owners handle all interstate paperwork and Sikkim commercial permits, ensuring your group crosses the border without delays. Note that local sightseeing within North Sikkim may require local Sikkim-registered vehicles.

Safety in the Mountains

The climb from Siliguri to Gangtok via NH10 is steep and scenic. Booking a vehicle with a hill-certified driver from the Rahigo platform ensures that your group's safety is the top priority during the 4-hour mountain stretch.
