7-Day Sikkim & Darjeeling Itinerary for Women Travelers

06/09/2025

The Himalayas don’t just offer landscapes—they offer emotions. In Sikkim and Darjeeling, every bend in the road feels like a new chapter: a sparkling lake at 12,000 feet, a monastery humming with chants, a sunrise that silences even the loudest thoughts. For women travelers, this journey is both safe and empowering—a week where exploration and sisterhood come together.

Here’s how your adventure unfolds:


🌊 Into the Mountains (Gangtok & Beyond)

Your journey begins with a drive that introduces you to the rhythm of the Himalayas—valleys stretching endlessly, waterfalls spilling from cliffs, and mist wrapping around winding roads. Gangtok becomes your base, a city alive with color and tradition.

Signature Experiences

  • Explore Tsomgo Lake, shimmering at 12,400 ft.

  • Pay respects at the Baba Harbhajan Singh Mandir, a place of both history and legend.

  • Optional detour to Nathula Pass—where borders meet the sky.

 

 


🌸 The Soul of North Sikkim (Lachung & Yumthang Valley)

As you ascend into North Sikkim, the landscapes grow wilder, the air thinner, and the silence deeper. In Lachung, a small Himalayan village, you find simplicity and charm. Then comes the unforgettable drive to Yumthang Valley, the “Valley of Flowers.”

Signature Experiences

  • Pause at the cascading Seven Sisters Waterfall.

  • Wander through Yumthang’s meadows—snow-draped in winter, flower-filled in spring.

  • For thrill-seekers: venture to Zero Point at 15,000 ft.

 

 


🍃 Crossing into Tea Country (Darjeeling)

From Sikkim’s mystical heights, the road bends into the tea-scented hills of Darjeeling. This is where colonial charm meets Himalayan grandeur. Evenings here are about slow walks on Mall Road, browsing handicraft shops, and sipping the finest tea in the world.

Signature Experiences

  • Witness sunrise at Tiger Hill, where the Kanchenjunga glows gold.

  • Ride through the Batasia Loop on Darjeeling’s iconic toy train.

  • Visit Ghoom Monastery, the Peace Pagoda, and the Tibetan Refugee Centre.

 

 


💡 What Makes This Trip Different for Women

  • Safety First: Women-only group with a trip leader guiding every step.

  • Curated Comfort: Verified hotels, local homestays, and safe transport.

  • Shared Sisterhood: Traveling with women who laugh, hike, and sip chai alongside you.

 

 


✨ The Journey in One Line

It’s seven days of mountain air, prayer flags, tea-scented breezes, and laughter shared with women who might start as strangers but end as friends.
