Essential Travel Tips for Your NJP to Gangtok Journey

Make your NJP to Gangtok trip smooth and hassle-free with these quick tips:

Choose the Right Vehicle: Always choose a robust vehicle such as an SUV or Tempo Traveller to navigate the winding roads of hilly regions.

Book in Advance: It is crucial to secure your NJP car rental services early on to avoid last-minute booking hassle and peak-season price hikes.

Carry Travel Documents: Make sure to carry travel documents along with travel ID and pass photos because permits are required to access certain destinations like North Sikkim & Nathula Pass.

Pack Smart: Make sure to carry light woollen clothes to bear the heat of summer, heavy jackets to deal with the chilly weather of winter and rain gear for the monsoon season.

Start Early: Visitors must start their journey early because obstacles like weather issues or traffic problems may arise.

Keep Cash Handy: Always keep your cash handy because roadside shops and permit offices are not comfortable dealing with digital payments.

Expect Network Issues: Make sure to download offline maps and save emergency contact numbers while visiting unknown areas in case of emergency.
