Overview

Sikkim tour packages for Family offer you not just another vacation, it’s the kind that becomes part of family lore. It’s where kids get their first snowball fight, parents finally slow down, and grandparents smile quietly, taking in mountains they’ve only seen in pictures. This journey is meant for togetherness, with moments designed for all ages.

Itinerary

Day 01Gangtok Welcomes You

Meet your driver at Bagdogra Airport or NJP Station
Drive through green valleys toward Gangtok (approx. 4 hours)
Settle into your hotel and take a short walk in the evening
Explore MG Road with the kids, pick up woollens or souvenirs

This first day is about arriving slowly. The hills don’t rush you, and neither does the plan. Families often use this day to shake off the travel and let the views sink in.

Day 02Tsomgo Lake, Monasteries & Mountain Roads

Visit Tsomgo Lake—a glacial mirror reflecting snow and silence
Stop at Baba Mandir and hear a story your kids will talk about later
Optional: Nathula Pass (for families okay with high altitudes)
Return to Gangtok for a relaxed evening

For families booking north Sikkim tour packages, this is often the first real brush with altitude and snow. Don’t forget gloves, and always carry snacks.

Day 03Gangtok to Lachen: A Drive Full of Views

After breakfast, hit the road for Lachen (about 6 hours)
Stop at Tashi Viewpoint, Kabi Longstok, and Naga Waterfall
Lunch at Chungthang
Evening free at your lodge in Lachen

This part of the journey is quieter. The road curves through villages, rivers appear and disappear, and everyone starts speaking softer for some reason.

Day 04Sacred Lake Morning, Transfer to Lachung

Early morning drive to Gurudongmar Lake—frozen, silent, unforgettable
Return to Lachen for breakfast
Short drive to Lachung by afternoon
Visit the monastery or walk around the village with the family

Gurudongmar is one of those places where everyone gets quiet, even the loud ones. It’s also where the best family photo of the trip probably happens.

Day 05Yumthang Valley, Hot Springs & Gangtok Return

Short drive to Yumthang Valley—also known as the Valley of Flowers
Visit the hot springs nearby
Drive back to Gangtok after lunch
Evening free for dinner and a stroll on MG Road

Whether you’re six years old or sixty, Yumthang leaves an impression. It’s big, bright, and smells of pine and wildflowers.

Day 06On to Pelling

After breakfast, head toward Pelling (approx. 5 hours)
Check into a resort with great views
Relax, catch up with each other, enjoy the slow pace

This is where families usually breathe a little deeper. The air is thinner, the pace is slower, and the surroundings do most of the talking.

Day 07Waterfalls, Ruins & Monasteries

Visit Kanchenjunga Waterfalls and Rimbi Waterfall
Walk around Khachoedpalri Lake (make a wish, just in case)
Explore Rabdentse Ruins and Pemayangtse Monastery

This day feels like a treasure hunt. Waterfalls roar, old stones hold stories, and monasteries welcome you in without asking too much.

Day 08Back to Bagdogra or NJP with Memories

Breakfast with a view
Return drive to Bagdogra Airport or NJP Station
End of trip, but maybe the start of a new family tradition

The last day is quieter. Everyone’s thinking about when you’ll do something like this again.

Who This Trip is For

Families looking for a proper break from routine. Parents who want the kids to look away from screens for once. Grandparents who’ve always wanted to see the mountains.

If you’ve been exploring Sikkim tour packages for family, considering south Sikkim tour packages or planning Sikkim and Darjeeling tour packages, this plan has enough comfort and variety to work for everyone.

And if a few cousins or extended family members decide to tag along—congrats, it just turned into one of the most seamless Sikkim group tour packages around.

Tips for Families Traveling to Sikkim

Carry warm clothes, even in summer. Weather shifts quickly.
Snacks for the road make a big difference during long drives.
Always keep IDs handy for permits. One per adult is enough.
Book Nathula permits early if you’re interested—they’re limited.
Keep games, coloring books, or music for kids on the road.
Show kids how to greet people the local way. A simple smile and a polite “Namaste” or “Kuzu Zangpo” often gets a smile right back.

FAQs

Is this safe for young kids and older parents?

Yes, the trip is designed for families with mixed age groups. We balance long drives with enough breaks and lighter days.

Can we skip the Gurudongmar or Nathula parts?

No problem. If some members in the family aren’t too sure about the higher spots, we can always switch things up. The trip still stays beautiful, just a little easier on the lungs.

How much does this trip cost for a family of four?

The Sikkim tour package cost falls somewhere between ₹30,000 and ₹35,000 per person. The final number shifts a bit based on when you’re travelling, the kind of stay you prefer, and whether certain permits are part of the plan.

Can we add Darjeeling to this?

Yes, we often combine Sikkim and Darjeeling tour packages. Just let us know, and we’ll plan a comfortable extension.

Do you offer any combined packages with Meghalaya?

We do. For travelers wanting to go deeper, ask about Sikkim Meghalaya tour packages and we’ll build something that flows right.
