About This Tour

A moving itinerary rather than a based one — four villages, four nights, and a new view from every balcony.

Rinchenpong and its monastery first, then over the Singshore bridge, one of the highest in Asia, to Pelling. Day three takes in Rabdentse — the ruined second capital of Sikkim — Khecheopalri Lake and the skywalk before Yuksom, where the first Chogyal was crowned in 1642. The Norbugang coronation throne still stands there. Ravangla and the Temi tea slopes close the loop.
