Travelling from Bengaluru to Sikkim is a great way to exchange busy city life for peaceful Himalayan surroundings, fresh mountain air and beautiful natural landscapes. Since Sikkim does not have a direct commercial airport, most travellers prefer flying from Bengaluru to Bagdogra Airport and continuing the journey by road to Gangtok. Another option is travelling by train to New Jalpaiguri (NJP), followed by a road transfer. A Sikkim holiday package from Bengaluru can be planned around your available vacation days, preferred travel style and budget. You can explore Gangtok's local culture, admire the turquoise waters of Tsomgo Lake, visit traditional monasteries and travel towards North Sikkim to see the beautiful landscapes of Lachung and Yumthang Valley.

Things to Know Before Travelling from Bengaluru to Sikkim

  • Flight connections: Fly from Bengaluru to Bagdogra, usually with a connecting or available direct flight, depending on the schedule.

  • Road transfer: Bagdogra to Gangtok takes approximately 4–5 hours, depending on traffic and road conditions.

  • Permits: Tsomgo Lake, Nathula Pass and certain North Sikkim destinations require special permits.
