Description

Driving Holidays in the Himalayas is a series of books that endeavour to give the reader a glimpse of many exciting, exotic locales that can be easily accessed by road and hopes to provide enough insight to make your trip a comfortable and memorable one.

Whereas this book explores Sikkim, and briefly the adjoining towns of Darjeeling and Kalimpong, others in the series take you through Uttaranchal, Himachal, Ladakh & Zanskar.

These books especially focus on travellers who are fond of driving, have their own wheels (two, four-or even hired will do!), and love the mountains. Given the time constraints to our lives today, each book is designed to cover a fair degree of terrain in a week to ten days. Although it does not aim to visit every place possible in a region, it certainly traverses a reasonable cross-section. It reflects the author’s own preferences of picturesque place to visit and also makes dining recommendations.
