SOME FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE BOOKING SILK ROUTE TOUR PACKAGES FROM KOLKATA

Silk Route is considered as a remote but pristine sikkim offbeat destination which has limited modern facilities and amenities. Some travelers may have fancy conception regarding foods, facilities, amenities and hotel rooms of this place. So let's understand first some basic facts that you must know before Silk Route Tour Package Booking from Kolkata.

• Do not expect modern facilities during your Silk Route package tour from Kolkata as most of the places are remote villages and away from modern cities and amenities. Guests can get general facilities like western commode, running water, hot meals (mostly egg curry and local vegetables), etc but no luxury meals, furniture, tv, internet connection, cable channel, geyser, mineral water on demand, etc.
  
  
• Staying in Nathang Valley is not recommended for children and elderly people. Situated at an altitude of 13,200 ft, Gnathang Valley or Nathang is very popular among Silk Route traveler and known as "Ladakh of the East India" due to its geographical similarities of Leh Ladakh. But on the other hand guests travelling Nathang Valley can experience dizziness, vomiting, headaches due to this extreme altitude and cold. Here to mention that night in Nathang is bitter cold and temperature can drop down to sub zero temperature. In that case NatureWings suggest elderly traveler to visit Nathang in daytime only and they must return to a lower altitude after spending some time there. If possible a portable oxygen cylinder can be carried with them for safety.
  
  
• Guests must carry original and photocopy of ID proof like voter card, driving license, passport along with at least 2 passport size color photograph. Birth certificate or school id must be carried for the children or minor.
  
  
• Guests must always carry enough dry fruits, nuts, chocolate, hot coffee, Popcorn, Ginger cubes and biscuits for emergency purposes as you don't know when adverse situation like landslide, road blocks, and snow storm arrives. So as an precaution you must carry a portable Oxygen cylinder and Oxygen meter in car. In case any serious emergency Indian Army and BRO is always there to help you.
  
  
• For Gnathang Valley, Kupup, Elephant Lake or Hati Lake always carry Camphor, Chocolate, Ginger cubes etc as these place are situated at high altitude and cause breathing issues. If you have doctor prescribed medicine, please carry those also.
  
  
• Medicine for fever, cold, cough, headache, stomach upset, and paracetamol, ointment, band-aid, vaseline, boroline, volini sprey etc must be in the first aid box while traveling the old silk route.
  
  
• Good amount of woolen clothes, gloves, hats, wind-protective glass, must be taken as in some places sub-zero temperature may prevail.
  
  
• Guests must carry adequate cash in small denomination as in Old Silk Rout as there are not ATM facilities after Rongli. So, before travelling high altitude, make sure you have enough cash with you. It is better to withdraw cash from NJP or Bagdogra as there are many ATM’s. In high altitude sometime withdrawing cash may not be possible because of link failure and non-refilling of hard cash in ATMs.
  
  
• GST is applicable to the Silk Route tour package cost.
  
  
• Bikers travelling to Silk Route need to carry valid documents for vehicles. If failed to produce valid paper, your Silk Route tour adventure may land in trouble, so proper document of Bike is a strict compliance.

Had the opportunity for an Old Silk Route Tour from NJP (East Sikkim) namely Mankhim, Zuluk, Lungthung and lastly Rongpokhola organised by Naturewings. Our POC Mr Ankan Das, supported by Mr Rajkumar Das made it very crisp with the formalities and this 5N6D trip was just a memorable one. Starting from homely vibes to enjoying our hearts out on the way through some elegant and breathing landscapes from one location to another.. The evenings were made warm with some good snacks service and group fun without any hindrance. It was hard to find a complaint on the service, or quality of food or the friendly nature of the management not only from the Homestays but also from Mr Ankan....

We travelled the Silk Route in Sikkim for 5N/6D with NatureWings from 9-14 April, 2023. We enjoyed the trip immensely which was organised by them very carefully. Mr. Rajkumar Hazra and Mr. Ankan Das explained the tour details and answered all our queries promptly. They kept in touch with us on daily basis.

The car and the driver (Mr. LB Tamang), the homestays were all very good. The owners took good care of us. The team led by Buddhaji at Oongking Heem Resort at Rongpokhola deserve special mention for their attention to the smallest details for our comfort. To summarise, I must say that we have found a reliable tour organiser in NatureWings and we would like to travel with them again.

"NATUREWINGS organasied our Silk Route Tour on last November 18 with transport and staying and they did provide some real good homestays with excellent food. The office staffs, especially AKASH DUTTA did help a lot through out the tour and before journey uncertainties were taken care and solved.
The organised the most beautiful homestay in most of the places, especially the homestay at upper Mankhim was such a bliss... I would request them to rethink about the ZULUK staying as it was not upto the mark at all.
We had some issues with delayed pick up and change of driver with the car but it ended happily...we were there during Diwali so they had their own emotional engagement. But it seemed managing car is a problem to most of the tourist as you cannot communicate with them when its needed. Bur we did have a safe journey.
overall the experience was good but apart from AKASH we did not get the needed communication from anyone from the agency.But it is such a great place and tour to remember these things...I wish them good luck."

"Just returned from Silk Route Tour through Naturewings from 22nd to 27th Jan'2018. Plan was from NJP to Sillery Gaon - Mankhim - Zuluk - Nathang n kupup n again Zuluk - Reshikhola - Baghdogra. Trip was really a memorable one. We got snow fall at zuluk but due to that we could not reach till nathang n kupup as heavy fog n snowfall but we reached till thambi which is also a great viewpoint. This was 1st snowfall of this season so we are lucky enough to get the same. Driver given to us was a fantastic guide cum driver. Overall in a nutshell it was a great n very good organized trip planned by naturewings and made our trip really memorable.. will update few snaps n tag naturewings for sure.."
