Sikkim Family Holiday Packages: what to know first
Sikkim is a scenic family trip, but the roads are slow and altitude matters for older relatives. Gangtok and Pelling are easy; North Sikkim needs a stronger constitution.
Plan the route with the oldest family member in mind and keep the high-altitude stops optional.
Why families choose Sikkim
- Clean, scenic towns
- Cable car and monasteries in Gangtok
- A cool climate in summer
- Short flights to Bagdogra
