Sikkim Gangtok Tour Package –Play with Snow in February

 Sikkim Gangtok with North Sikkim in February

Sikkim, a tiny state in North East of India, is always in the mind of nature lovers tourists. 

This February 2020, we planned for a Sikkim Gangtok Tour Package, mainly to enjoy the snow in North Sikkim. We have a dream for many years that we will enjoy the snow in Sikkim and finally decided to visit Sikkim in February 2020.

 

Why We have chosen February for Sikkim Gangtok Trip 

 

  •     Snow– Abundant snow in North Sikkim and Gangtok Area. We can play with Snow and Kids can enjoy a lot

 

  •     Clear Weather –Clear weather with a breathtaking view of Mount Kanchanjhungha

 

  •     Less Crowd –In the Peak Season, being a popular destination, Sikkim is heavily crowded. So, in February, we can enjoy the beauty and serenity of the place to its full extent

 

  •     Off-Season Budget– February, being the off-season time, we can expect a hefty discount in our package, and above all service, quality is better compared to peak season months.
