How does Kudozz Club plan a Sikkim trip?
You share your dates, budget range and interests through the enquiry form. Our in-house team builds a day-by-day Sikkim itinerary around that and discusses it with you by email. Nothing is a fixed package.
Can I change the route or duration?
Yes. Add or drop places, extend the trip, change the pace or combine it with a neighbouring state. The routes on this page are starting points, not fixed departures.
Why don't you show package prices?
Because the price depends on your dates, hotel category, group size and how you travel between places. Rather than advertise a 'starting from' price that changes later, we quote for your actual trip.
