Terms And conditions
- Guidelines with respect to transportation: -
- We provide exclusive vehicles in our packages.
- As there is shortage of space for car parking in the entire Sikkim & Darjeeling region - guests will have to wait at the Lobby in time for the vehicle to start their sightseeing / transfers.
- Also, the lack of enough parking space is the primary reason why we offer only point to point service.
- Due to the services being on point-to-point basis and some local unwritten rules, we might be required to change vehicles based on the route. For example, a vehicle doing the
- sightseeing tour will not necessarily transfer you to the Airport.
- Because vehicles are likely to change during the course of the tour, guests are advised not leave behind any belongings.
- Guests are requested to maintain the transfer / sightseeing timings, especially in Gangtok. Due to local traffic laws, vehicles are not allowed to remain parked in front of the hotels for long (also most of the hotels do not have dedicated parking lots). If there is a delay in
- boarding the vehicle after it has arrived to receive the guests, the vehicle will be forced to leave and head to the nearest taxi stand. Guests will then have to make their own arrangement to reach the taxi stand.
- We would appreciate it if the guests do not lend their ears to the drivers. In our experience, a lot of times drivers have tried to misguide guests to suit themselves. Its best if the guests
- discuss the issue with us first.
- Should the guests feel the need to change the sightseeing schedule, we request to be informed about it a day in advance by 16:00 hrs. After the said time it becomes difficult for
- us as we would have already planned the next day.
- Please note any additional cost arising due to the reschedule will be charged additionally at times, due to rush at the tourism office in Gangtok, permits are issued late for restricted areas (Tsomgo Lake, Baba Mandir, Nathu La, North Sikkim). Guests, patience is highly
- appreciated during such situations

- ask the hotels to book rooms at the lower levels of the hotels
- The tourism infrastructure in Sikkim & Darjeeling is not very developed and one should not expect or compare it with the standards of cities or other developed destinations. There is
- always scarcity of water and power in the region; hence guests may come across situations like hot-water being supplied on a timely basis - morning & evening.
- Room heaters are available at additional cost. (Except in Luxury and Premium category hotels)
- Hotels in North Sikkim serve mostly vegetarian fare with very limited options for non Vegetarian. This is primarily because of the location, which makes it difficult to source good
