India
Tours in the Himalayan areas of India include Sikkim and Darjeeling in the northeast of India, and Ladakh in the northwest. Sikkim is flanked by Nepal, Tibet and Bhutan, offering a great combination of cultural experiences and access to Kanchenjunga – the world’s third highest mountain. The Darjeeling district was the part of the dominions of the Raja of Sikkim until the beginning of the 18th century when it gained autonomy. Ladakh’s prominence includes the ancient Silk Road at a crossroads that connects Tibet to Central Asia. Parts of this area were only opened to tourists in 1995.
