- The tourism infrastructure in Sikkim & Darjeeling is not very developed and one should not expect or compare it with the standards of plains & other developed destinations. There is always scarcity of water and power in the region and so you would come across situations like water (hot) being supplied on time basis – morning & evening.
- In the area almost all the hotels do not have a lift facility and in all the hotels the guest will have to climb stairs. In case if any guest is having problem of blood pressure, knee or other ailment for which they cannot climb the higher floors they will have to intimate us during the time of booking so that we can try to arrange rooms at the lowest possible floor of the hotel enabling the guest to climb the minimum number of stairs.
- In Lachen and Lachung most of the hotels are offering Vegetarian food.
- All guests are requested to carry minimum luggage when travelling to North Sikkim and keep the remaining luggage at the hotel in Gangtok because of bad road conditions of North Sikkim especially during transshipment due to landslides and road blockages.

- Important Note about Nathula Pass: (We will not give you any guarantee for Nathula pass but we will try)
- The permit for Nathula Pass is issued by the Sikkim Tourism Department is completely subject to availability and Road Condition.
- Only limited permits are issued by the Sikkim Tourism Department before 24 hrs. of the tour (OR on the day of tour depending on road condition) to those travel agencies registered with Sikkim Tourism Department on Rotation basis. Nathula is closed on every Monday. Normally organizing a permit at the eleventh hour is not possible, the minimum time required is 48 hours before the arrival to apply the permit with all documents. We will try our best, but in case of non-availability of permit, the tour will only be till Baba Mandir. In case the permit is available one can opt for the trip with the supplement cost.

- As permit is mandatory and a very limited number of permits are issued per day for visiting Nathula, guests have to travel by any car whichever is available (like Xylo/Scorpio/Maxx/Bolero/Sumo) as per permit issued. We cannot give any choice on Vehicle type. This is to inform you that in order to control and send more tourists to Nathula pass, the department of tourism after consulting with travel agents laid down the following rules:-
- The Indian Army allows visiting Nathula from 11:00AM to 12:30PM only. Guests have to start early from Gangtok. If the guest makes a delay in starting from Gangtok we cannot guarantee the visit in spite of having confirmed permit.
- In high season a limited permit will be issued by authorities. We will try to get the permit but if we do not get the permit then we will refund the supplement amount after the end of the tour.
- Please note if the Nathula pass permit is not done due to weather conditions / Landslide / any other reason than we will refund the supplement amount after the end of the tour.
- Also note that if the Nathula Pass permit is issued and due to any other reason they can’t visit Nathula Pass then we are unable to refund anything.
- We will try to get premium permit (which is not clubbed) of Nathula Pass for Luxury vehicles.
- In case of less than 6 people from one travel agent the Department generally clubs small numbers with another travel agent’s small number of tourists just for 4 km up and down before Nathula Pass. Now in this case it might so happen that the guests might have to leave their vehicle and board some other vehicle with other guests or other guests may join them in their vehicle or for groups and multiple cars it might so happen that the guests who has paid for certain number of vehicles might have to accommodate in lesser number of vehicles as per the instruction of the Permit Office
- at Sarathang (04 kms before Nathula Pass). In that case no refund would be applicable.
- Cancellation Policy:
- Cancellation Policy will be applicable as per hotel’s cancellation policy and Transportation cancellation policy.
