Daily Itinerary

Day 1
Ease Into the Eastern Himalayas

Arrive at Bagdogra and wind your way into Gangtok. By evening, MG Road’s soft buzz welcomes you with momos, prayer flags, and mountain air.

Day 2
Of Monasteries, Mountain Air & Slow Chants

Of Monasteries, Mountain Air & Slow Chants

Begin the day among ancient texts and sacred art at the Namgyal Institute. Hear chants echo through Ranka Monastery, then float above Gangtok in a ropeway. Sunset finds you at Tashi View Point—Kanchenjunga glowing gold.

Day 3
The Forgotten Silk Route to Zuluk

The Forgotten Silk Route to Zuluk

Leave behind the known. Cross Tsomgo Lake, Nathula, and Nathang to reach the remote village of Zuluk. The journey itself is your destination—switchbacks, snowy passes, and the hush of higher altitudes.

Day 4
Stillness, Sky Roads & Sikkimese Flavours

Stillness, Sky Roads & Sikkimese Flavours

Wake early for 360° views of the eastern Himalayas. Walk Zuluk’s famed loops, learn local stories, taste homestyle Sikkimese dishes, and let time slow to the rhythm of village life.

Day 5
Detours, Rivers & a Gentle Thrill

Detours, Rivers & a Gentle Thrill

En route to Kalimpong, stop at Tarey Bhir—where cliffs kiss clouds—and the Teesta-Rangeet confluence. Optional rafting or simply peace by the water. The day ends at Kalimpong’s cactus garden, quiet and oddly poetic.

Day 6
Farewell, But Unhurried

Farewell, But Unhurried

A final breakfast, a soft drive back to Bagdogra, and a heart that beats just a little slower. Trip ends. But something gentler has begun.
