Getting To Sikkim
Nearest domestic airport: Bagdogra Airport
Sikkim is a nugget-shaped Himalayan state in the northeastern corner of India, nestled at the crossroads of Nepal, Tibet, and Bhutan. The nearest domestic airport is Bagdogra Airport (IXB), located in the neighbouring state of West Bengal.
To reach Yuksom, you'll travel approximately 152 km from Bagdogra. The drive takes about 7 hours, winding through scenic mountain roads. It’s a long ride, but one of the most breathtaking ways to take in the Himalayas without trekking.
Your driver will typically stop for tea and lunch breaks along the way.
Each car comfortably seats six passengers, with bulkier luggage secured on the roof.
We’re happy to connect you with reliable local drivers who will pick you up directly from Bagdogra Airport.
To help reduce your transport cost, we encourage all participants to arrive on the same flight, so you can share the car ride with other guests, a maximum of 6 passengers. A one-way journey from Bagdogra to Yuksom costs around 7,000 rupees per vehicle, which can be split among passengers. Please pay the driver directly once you arrive at your destination.
After booking your journey with us, we’ll advise you on which flight to book so that everyone can arrive together and travel to Yuksom comfortably.
