Himalayan Kingdoms
 
Going solo with Adventures Abroad to Bhutan, Sikkim, Darjeeling in mid-March. Has anyone taken this trip? This will be my first trip with AA after several with OAT. What can I expect with weather? Packing suggestions would be helpful. Will wi-fi be available? Unlike OAT, AA does not share client list in advance. Too bad as it's fun to connect Pre-trip.

You will experience a chill weather.Even if there is no wi-fi you can use network data if you have an unocked phone with GSM sim

It will be chilly at night, but my experience in Sikkim and Darjeeling in Nov/Dec was that it was warm during the day.

In Bhutan, wifi is available in the public areas of many hotels. It is not often available in the rooms, however. Spring will just be beginning in Bhutan, so it will likely be cool to warm during the day and chilly at night.

Wi-fi was very very slow in Sikkim.
