Guided by expert local trekkers who know every trail, every camp, and every secret viewpoint in the Eastern Himalayas.
We're not a booking platform. We're your friends in Kalimpong — people who've walked every trail, slept in every camp, and know the best table at every dhaba.
Born and raised in Kalimpong, our guides have an intimate knowledge of Sikkim and the Eastern Himalayas that no guidebook can replicate.
Every itinerary is built from scratch — your pace, your interests, your budget. No two trips are ever the same.
From solo backpackers to luxury family holidays — we've hosted travellers from 30+ countries, always earning 5-star reviews.
Permits, transport, accommodation, meals, guides — everything is handled by us, with 24/7 on-trip support.
Tell us what you dream of and we'll design an experience that exceeds every expectation.
"Areca Treks turned our Sikkim dream into reality. Every detail was perfect — from the cozy homestays to the incredible Goechela summit. Our guide Pemba knew every shortcut and story on the trail."
"As a solo international traveller, I was nervous about Northeast India. Areca handled everything — permits, transport, food, safety. The Meghalaya and Assam circuit was absolutely life-changing."
"Our family trip to Bhutan exceeded every expectation. The local expertise of the Areca team is unmatched — they knew the right monks at Tiger's Nest who gave us a private blessing."
Areca Treks and Tours was founded in Kalimpong with a single belief: the best travel experiences come from people who truly belong to a place. Our founders grew up in the shadows of Kanchenjunga, learning mountain trails before roads were built.
Over 15 years, we've grown from a small trekking outfit to a full-service travel company specialising in Sikkim, Darjeeling, Kerala, Rishikesh, Northeast India, Nepal, and Bhutan — always with the same ethos: personalised, responsible, and deeply local.
We are not mass-market. We cap our group sizes, choose our accommodation partners carefully, and employ only certified local guides. When you travel with Areca, you travel the right way.
