Sikkim - Assam - Maghalay

JPJ

Hi all,

After visiting Bangladesh and two weeks in Meghalay and Assam I will be in Sikkim around 5th til 20th of April. Usually it's a lot cheaper with a group of 4 people. So, if I can find two more people who'd like to join in that period, please let me know. If anyone is interested to join in Assam & Megalay, would be nice too.

I have a 15 days' permit for Sikkim but don't know exactly which areas are off limits for Europeans. I would be interested in at least 10 days' trekking in Sikkim. Any information about best trekkings and agencies is most welcome.
Thanks
JP

Thanks. I'll come back to you for Sikkim. Well, if you're Indian, you're lucky because I will not get a permit for Arunachal Pradesh, unfortunately...
