Sikkim Green Lake Trek
This is a very picturesque trail which combines natural beauty with spectacular views of high peaks. There are vast tracts of thick forest, with several varieties of rhododendrons, other colorful flowers, and birds and many waterfalls on both sides of the trail. Kanchenjunga was one of the first peaks to be attempted by expeditions before world war two. As Nepal was closed, the approach from Sikkim, via the Zemu Glacier, was followed instead. Pre war Everest expeditions also passed through North Sikkim and this trail was part of their route. Today, it is still largely unexplored country as not many parties have been allowed across to Green Lake. (Harish Kapadia).

A special place where you can feel the great nature and unique culture of the Himalayas
Having actually visited Sikkim, I felt it is a very special region within India.
It has a unique atmosphere, characteristic of a border region surrounded by the Himalayan mountains, close to Nepal, Bhutan, and China. As I left the town, the magnificent mountain scenery continued, and in some places, there were many signs of landslides, making me realize that this is a region in a harsh natural environment.
Also, a big attraction is being able to experience the unique cultures of this region, such as the Lepcha and Bhutia tribes. The townscape and the atmosphere of the people seemed quite different from other regions of India.
Foreigners require entry permits, and there are further restrictions in areas close to the border. I have the feeling that I am visiting a slightly special place, different from typical tourist spots.
Travel is never easy, but there were sights and cultures worth seeing more than that.
This is a place I highly recommend for those interested in the nature of the Himalayas, the history of the border regions, and the culture of ethnic minorities.

The best tour company in Sikkim
There’s no other way I can say it. This company is truly the best. Honest, hard-working and bent over backwards to please us and accommodate any special request. Their pricing was very reasonable and fair. Their guides are very knowledgeable and flexible and their drivers are excellent. The best guides anywhere in India. They knew where to stop for the ultimate photo ops and observations. We did stop. They were very knowledgeable about the location. We were fortunate enough to see. Example: the Grand waterfallAnd the best guides in the world and the best tour company in the world. On top of that, they’re very nice friendly people who are easy to get along with very knowledgeable They tailored our tour on the fly to get do things special such as meeting with the Tea plantation general manager after hours to get a Birdseye view of the facility and information that almost no one else gets. The hotels made sure we got the best rooms because
Ardash negotiated that with them. everything went like clockwork with no hitch. We thoroughly enjoyed our 12 day tour and we also thoroughly enjoyed making great friends in Sikkim. It was a privilege doing business with them and being on their tour.

Sikkim Trip
Gopal ji,
Hope you are doing well. We returned to Bangalore yesterday after a memorable tour to the beautiful state of Sikkim.
All the places were stunning.
I would like to mention here the support from Manish in providing timely updates.
The trip would not have been possible without the wonderful drivers that were there to provide us company and guidance.
Topendra ji for the Nathula and Tsangpo lake trip.
Special mention for Bishal who was there for the North Sikkim trip and expertly drove through the difficult roads. He is very professional and pleasant to interact with.
And lastly I have to mention Sanjay who took us to Pelling and back to Siliguri.Sanjay is very friendly and helped us visit lot of nice places in Pelling and also on the way back to Siliguri via Kalimpong.
Thanks once again for arranging things for us and look forward to the next trip with you.

Great Trip
We opted for Adarsh Tours for our recent 7 Days 6 Nights family vacation in Sikkim in starting 9th April. We had only opted for transport services from them and they were very good. Gopal Sir and Mr. Manish always responded promptly. Vehicles provided to us were good and our driver Mr. Narbu was very caring, skilled and good at driving in mountain terrain. Thanks to Adarsh Tours for making our entire trip hassle free and a very memorable one.

Reliable and professional tour agent
After deciding to go on a tour in North Sikkim, I discovered the requirement for foreigners to arrange tours only through a Sikkim registered agency and be accompanied by a government-authorized guide. After reaching out to several registered travel agencies for quotes, I found the best offer from Mr. Gopal at Adarsh Tours. At the time, I wasn't aware of his leading status in Gangtok. However, upon arriving, it became evident why he holds such a reputation. Mr. Gopal proved to be exceptionally professional and accommodating, readily incorporating ad hoc changes I suggested. He provided not only the best driver but also an excellent guide. Overall, I can confidently say that Mr. Gopal is the finest agent in Gangtok, offering reliable service

Excellent travel with adrash tour
Our hike and tour in Sikkim with Adrasi Tours was perfect.
The hiking supporters (Sherpas, cooks, porters) prepared by Adrasi Tours always thought of us and provided us with a lot of things. And the guide, LO, and President Gupal were really kind. I recommend it to others as well.
