Know Before You Go

  • Pick up from the airport is only between 05:00 AM to 07:00 PM as it becomes unsafe for travel on the outskirts. Beyond these timings, you are advised to let Thrillophilia POC know before booking if you are arriving after 7 PM in Siliguri so that Thrillophilia can rearrange your Itinerary accordingly as you might have to stay in Siliguri itself.
  • Govt. Approved Photo ID proof is mandatory for each individual guest at the time of booking (to acquire necessary permits), and also upon arrival. PAN card and Driving License will not be considered as a valid address proof.
  • There is no governing authority (HRACC) to decide the star category of the hotels. Hence, the standards of the room will not be the same as TIER-I/II Cities.
  • By default, we arrange a standard category room while booking unless you specify to receive a different (upgraded) category of rooms for your stay requirements.
  • In case of triple sharing rooms, extra mattresses will be provided at the assigned property. Due to infrastructure limitations in the region the rooms in the North-East come with very basic and necessary amenities only.
  • Senior citizens and travelers younger than 4 years are not recommended to go to Gurudongmar Lake because of low oxygen levels. Permits for the infant under 2 years of age are not granted by North Sikkim tourism. That means if you have an infant traveling with you, you’ll not be allowed to go to North Sikkim.
  • As per North East guidelines, vehicles are available on point to point basis only (not on disposal), any deviation in the itinerary would cost an additional amount (unless any issue occurs such as bad weather, Political/social disturbances, roadblocks, VVIP movements & state transport rule prohibition).

  • Thrillophilia does not recommend Sumo/ Bolero for its travelers as these vehicles are not allowed in the main market areas of Sikkim. However, if you choose these vehicles then you’ll be dropped at/ picked up from the nearest possible location. You might have to walk or take a union cab (at your own expense) to reach the hotel/ the pickup point.
  • During season time the vehicle may get delayed during pickup/ drop due to heavy traffic, bad weather, political/ social disturbances, roadblocks, VVIP movements & state transport rule prohibition. Customer discretion is advised.
  • Due to power shortages in the state, the government does not allow travelers to use electric room heaters. Also, it is possible that hotels may usually not have room heaters installed. However, in some hotels room heaters may be available on a chargeable basis (subject to availability).
  • As per state guidelines, travelers wearing a turban are not allowed in Lachen.
  • Foreign Nationals are not allowed to visit Lachen, Baba Mandir & Nathula Pass as per state authority due to security reasons. Foreign Nationals in groups of 2 or above will be allowed to visit Lachung & Tsomgo Lake with an Indian Guide (Mandatory). However, Foreign Nationals traveling solo are not granted permits to visit any part of North Sikkim.
