Anybody been to Gangtok,Sikkim

Hi Nabanita,

You are right, that Sikkim/Gangtok is a nice place for honeymooners, especially those into nature or wildlife. I visited Sikkim and Darjeeling in the last week of December, two years ago, and I had no problems with the weather there..it was cold, around 6 degrees Celsius but no issues like snowstorms etc.

However, a problem might present itself if one is flying in/out of Delhi while visiting Sikkim..The fog is at it's peak now, and flights are routinely cancelled or delayed.

Hence I would advise people to plan their travel keeping in mind a considerable buffer period for delays, especially at airports/transit points.

Cheers,
Sowmya

 

Hi Nabanita,
Even i have visited darjeeling and gangtok in summer. It is a wonderful place.
Have you visited northern sikkim, incase you have visited, can you let me know what all places you had visited and where you had stayed.

Cheers.

 

Right now I would like to tell that the situation in Darjeeling is not like before because of the Gorka Agitation there are frequent bandhs and the place becomes cut off from the rest of india. So avoid Darjeeling in the tour itenary :thumbsup

 

Ohh...that was a very useful info Vsar. Thank you.
