When in Gangtok, you will be going for a city sightseeing tour and covering Dro-due Chorten, Enchey Monastery, Banjakhri Fall, to name a few. In this sleepy part of Sikkim, landscapes might be stark and cold, but the people are the exact opposite.

Once you are soaked in the essence of Gangtok, you will take you to Yumthang Valley, Sikkim's answer to Valley of Flowers in Uttarakhand. During the spring season, the valley looks like a stark of colors with rhododendrons and Himalayan wildflowers, Buddhist prayer flags, and tiny huts made of wood. Further, you will go back to Gangtok, which marks the last day of your expedition. With this thrill, the tour will come to an end, and you will be packing oodles of beautiful memories along with your belongings.
