WHEN IS THE IDEAL TIME FOR BOOKING A SILK ROUTE + NORTH SIKKIM TOUR PACKAGE?


Whether it's a family vacation or a romantic honeymoon, the Silk Route of East Sikkim welcomes travelers throughout the year. According to NatureWings - The 'Best Silk Route Tour Operator in Kolkata', the optimal time to visit this captivating destination is from the end of May to November, which marks the summer season in the Silk Route region. During this period, temperatures range between 8°C to 15°C, offering pleasant weather ideal for exploring the myriad attractions of the ancient Silk Road amidst the full bloom of rhododendrons and primulas. It's a truly breathtaking experience surrounded by nature's splendor.

It's worth noting that due to the high altitude, certain places like Zuluk, Gnathang, Kupup, Lungthung, and Baba Mandir remain blanketed in thick snow more or less throughout the year. Among these, Zuluk stands out as a highlight of the 'Silk Route Package Tour'. Zuluk is a picturesque village adorned with friendly locals and renowned for its iconic zigzag roads, offering a postcard-perfect view from Thambi View Point. Travelers flock to Zuluk to witness the mesmerizing sunrise and sunset against the backdrop of the snow-capped Mt. Kanchenjungha and the sun-kissed Himalayan Mountains, creating an unparalleled beauty.

Due to its high altitude, Zuluk experiences heavy snowfall during the winter season, with temperatures dropping below freezing point (-10°C). Therefore, NatureWings advises against a 'Silk Route Package Booking' during winter, especially from the end of December to early February, despite some travelers seeking adventure in challenging environments.



TRAVEL GUIDELINES FOR SILK ROUTE TOUR PACKAGE FROM KOLKATA


When embarking on your 'Silk Route Tour + North Sikkim Tour', it's important to adjust your expectations as most of the destinations are remote villages, far removed from modern conveniences. While guests can expect basic facilities like western toilets, running water, and hot meals (typically comprising egg curry and local vegetables), luxuries such as fancy meals, furniture, TV, internet connectivity, cable channels, geysers, or mineral water on demand are not available.

Staying in Nathang Valley is not advised for children and elderly individuals. Situated at an altitude of 13,200 ft, Gnathang Valley or Nathang is a popular spot among Silk Route travelers, often referred to as the 'Ladakh of East India' due to its geographical resemblance to Leh Ladakh. However, guests traveling to Nathang Valley may experience symptoms such as dizziness, vomiting, and headaches due to the extreme altitude and cold. Nights in Nathang are bitterly cold, with temperatures dropping to sub-zero levels. Elderly travelers are advised to visit Nathang during the daytime only and return to lower altitudes after spending some time there. Carrying a portable oxygen cylinder for safety is recommended.

Guests should carry original and photocopies of ID proofs such as voter cards, driving licenses, passports, along with at least 2 passport-sized color photographs. For children or minors, birth certificates or school IDs must be carried.

It's advisable to carry an adequate supply of dry fruits, nuts, chocolates, and biscuits for emergencies such as landslides, roadblocks, or heavy snowfall.

A well-stocked first aid kit containing medicines for fever, cold, cough, headache, stomach upset, as well as paracetamol, ointment, band-aids, Vaseline, Boroline, and Volini spray, is essential for traveling the old silk route.

Given the possibility of sub-zero temperatures in some places, guests should pack plenty of woolen clothes, gloves, hats, and wind-protective glasses.

Guests should carry sufficient cash in small denominations as there are no ATM facilities after Rongli in the Old Silk Route. It's advisable to withdraw cash from NJP or Bagdogra as there are many ATMs available. In high altitudes, withdrawing cash may be challenging due to link failures and non-refilling of ATMs.

GST is applicable to the package cost.

Bikers undertaking the Silk Route journey must carry valid vehicle documents to avoid any potential issues during their adventure.

During your 'Silk Route Sillery-Gaon Tour', it's not recommended to consume alcohol at high altitudes. However, if you choose to do so, please ensure you carry your preferred brand as options may be limited in high-altitude areas.

If you visit forested areas in lower altitudes like SilleryGaon, Ramdhura, Rongpokhola, be cautious of leeches.

Sikkim is a plastic-free state, so please refrain from discarding any plastic bags or bottles. Remember the motto: 'PLEASE TAKE NOTHING BUT PICTURES AND LEAVE NOTHING BUT FOOTPRINTS'."
