Things to Keep in Mind Before Planning a Silk Route Tour

• Search for a Good Tour Operator 

Before you embark on a beautiful journey and create memories of a lifetime, contact a local tour operator. They will help you with a proper itinerary and plan your trip within your budget. 

• Plan and Enjoy the Local Experience 

Silk Route will be more memorable if you plan to stay in local homestays and experience the taste of the local cuisines. This will allow you to meet the local villagers and provide you with a truly immersive experience. 

• Visit the Spiritual Monasteries 

Sikkim is well known for its spirituality and beautiful monasteries. So, while planning a Silk route trip, make sure you plan a trip around all the monasteries. Take a moment to visit the famous Baba Harbhajan Singh Mandir. The monasteries nestled amidst the wild landscapes can help you experience spirituality at its best. 

• Make a List of the Important Places to Visit 

When planning your trip to the Silk Route, ensure you include places like Zuluk, Sillery Gaon, Icche Gaon, Rongli, Padamchen, Aritar and Baba Mandir. You'll have to plan your itinerary from Gangtok to Tsomgo Lake. This will help you get a complete cover of the whole Silk Route. 

• Select the Best Time of the Year 

Except for the monsoon, which sets in the middle of June and continues till September, you can visit the Silk Route at any time of the year. If you are a snow lover, it is recommended that you visit from March to May and enjoy ample snowfall in this region. 

However, if you plan to travel before the middle of April, it is better to avoid staying up at Nathag or Zuluk as the temperature in these regions might be very high. Also, carry a sufficient amount of woollen garments if you plan to travel in the winter.
