SILK ROUTE PACKAGE TOUR FROM KOLKATA

Most of the roads on the Silk Route are made with boulders, and landslides can sometimes make the roads muddy and slippery. For this reason, Adorable Vacation recommends using sturdy vehicles like the Mahindra Bolero or Tata Sumo for standard tours, and the Mahindra Xylo for luxury tours. These vehicles are best suited for the rough terrain along the Silk Route.

Yes, you can choose an SUV for your Silk Route tour. Adorable Vacation offers a variety of vehicles to match your preferences and budget so you can have a comfortable and enjoyable experience during your trip.

To prevent altitude sickness, it's important to stay hydrated, eat well, and follow any medical advice from your doctor. Make sure to take any necessary medications to help with high-altitude sickness, especially if you're traveling to higher elevations.

The Silk Route is famous for its hot momos (dumplings) in three varieties: steamed, fried, and spicy. You can also enjoy Thukpa (noodle soup), Gyathuk (another type of noodle soup), Gundruk soup, and Sael Roti (a local snack). For a unique drink, try Chaang, a local alcoholic beverage, which is available along the route.

The best views of Mt. Kanchenjungha can be enjoyed from places like Sillery Gaon, Ramdhura, and Thambi Viewpoint. If you'd like to stay at any of these locations, we'd be happy to arrange it for you.

Yes, permits are required to visit certain restricted areas like Zuluk and Gnathang. These permits are arranged at the Rongli Check Post along the way by your driver.

Yes, from April to May, Reshikhola becomes a popular spot for birdwatchers. The lush forests here are home to a variety of migrating birds, including the Great Barbet, Fire Tailed Sunbird, Himalayan Bulbul, Green Magpie, and many others. Birdwatchers often spot these species along the Zuluk to Gnathang route.

You can travel to Zuluk with a baby, but it's important to consult with a doctor beforehand about the potential effects of high altitude. If your baby has any breathing issues, make sure to carry the necessary medications, and pack plenty of warm clothes as it can get quite cold.

It's best to carry your own medicines, as getting them along the route can be challenging. You may find some places selling mineral water, but availability is not guaranteed everywhere. The Silk Route is not a luxury destination, and the area is not heavily developed, so stock up on essentials before heading out.

There are no formal bars in these areas, but you can find small local restaurants along the roadside serving food like momos, noodles, and soup. Some small shops may have a bar where you can get drinks.

Yes, there may be network issues, especially in Zuluk and Nathang where there is no signal. BSNL is the only network that works in some areas, but you'll need to walk towards a tower to get a signal.

Yes, hot water is available at most homestays. Some homestays have geysers, while others provide hot water in a bucket on request.

Yes, vegetarian meals are available at homestays, and many of them serve organic, locally grown vegetables. However, it's a good idea to inform Adorable Vacation about your food preferences when booking your tour.

There are no cake shops along the Silk Route. If you want to carry cakes or baked goods, it's best to buy them from NJP before starting your journey.

If you have breathing issues, it's advisable to consult a doctor before the trip and carry necessary medications. If you have a serious condition, you may need to carry a small oxygen cylinder, as medical facilities are limited in the area.
