Our recent 7-day/6-night package tour covering Gangtok, Pelling, and Darjeeling (Read More)with Z Star Holidays was a fantastic experience, offering a perfect blend of stunning landscapes, serene monasteries, and charming colonial history. This trip is ideal for anyone looking to explore the beauty of the Eastern Himalayas.
The Journey Highlights:
Gangtok (2 Nights):
* Arrival & First Impressions: Our transfer from NJP Railway Station to Gangtok was smooth, with a comfortable vehicle and a courteous driver. The winding roads offered the first glimpse of the majestic mountains.
* City Charm: Gangtok is a vibrant capital. We loved exploring the MG Marg, a bustling pedestrian street, in the evenings. It's clean, lively, and offers great shopping and dining options.
* Natural Wonders: The trip to Tsomgo Lake and Nathula Pass was a highlight.
Pelling (1 Night):
* The Scenic Drive: The drive from Gangtok to Pelling was incredibly picturesque, winding through lush greenery and small villages.
* Kanchenjunga's Grandeur: Pelling truly lives up to its reputation for stunning Kanchenjunga views. Our hotel Udaan Pine Crest offered an unobstructed view from our room, which was an absolute treat to wake up to the morning.
* Skywalk near Chenrezig statue was a thrilling and visually impressive addition.
Darjeeling (3 Nights):
* Queen of the Hills: The drive to Darjeeling was equally scenic. The town has a unique colonial charm.
* Sunrise at Tiger Hill: Waking up at 3 AM for the Tiger Hill sunrise was absolutely worth it! Witnessing the sun's first rays illuminate the Kanchenjunga range in golden hues was an unforgettable, almost spiritual experience. The Batasia Loop and Ghoom Monastery visits afterwards were also very nice.
* Tea & Tranquility: We enjoyed a visit to a tea garden and sampled some famous Darjeeling tea, which was delightful.
* Darjeeling Mall Road: The Mall Road was bustling and a great place for an evening stroll, picking up souvenirs, and enjoying the local vibe.
*Pine Forests and Trails: The majestic pine forests surrounding Lamahatta are a defining feature. Many reviews mention the refreshing, earthy aroma of the pines and the chance to take peaceful walks or short treks through them.
*Mirik Lake is a delightful destination for those seeking peace, natural beauty, and a gentle pace of life. It's ideal for a relaxing day out, a romantic stroll, or a fun family outing with boating and horse riding. Its serene environment provides a welcome respite from city life and makes it a memorable stop on any trip to the Darjeeling hills.
Tour Operator & Logistics:
* Accommodation: Hotels in all three locations were comfortable, clean, and well-located, offering good value.
Summiy Grand Resort, Gangtok had excellent service, and the Udaan Pine Crest, Pelling truly delivered on the views.
* Transportation: The private vehicle provided was well-maintained.
* Itinerary: The itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to see key attractions without feeling rushed. Transfers between cities were managed efficiently.
* Communication: Mr. Bhaskar was responsive during the booking process and provided clear instructions throughout the trip.
Areas for Improvement (Minor):
* We were not happy with two drivers from gangtok to pelling and darjeeling. So please avoid those two drivers.
Overall:
This Gangtok, Pelling, and Darjeeling tour was an absolutely magical journey. We left with incredible memories, stunning photographs, and a deeper appreciation for the beauty and culture of the Eastern Himalayas. Highly recommend this package for a truly enriching travel experience!

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Gateway Destination, and I have t (Read More)o say a big thank you to Hemant for organizing everything so beautifully. Our trip took us through Guwahati, Meghalaya, Sikkim, and then to Bandhavgarh in Madhya Pradesh—and yes, we saw tigers, which was such a thrill! The tiger hunting a jackal and chasing him is a very rare sighting.From there, we went on to Prayagraj, Dehradun, Haridwar, Rishikesh, and Mussoorie. Everything went smoothly from start to finish.
A special shoutout to Hemant and Prashant, who personally accompanied us from Delhi by train to Katni and then onwards to Bandhavgarh. Their presence was a huge support. They also joined us to Prayagraj and made sure our experience at the Triveni Sangam was truly special—arranging the boat and helping us take a dip at the confluence. It was a moment we’ll always remember.
The drivers throughout were courteous and reliable, the sightseeing was thoughtfully planned, and the hotels were all excellent . We always felt comfortable safe, and well looked after.
This trip was a big one, and Gateway Destination made sure it went off without a hitch. Highly recommend them for anyone looking to explore India in a meaningful, well-organized way.
