Answer 1

Do you have any experience in trekking ?? As Tapovan is located on an altitude of 4463m above sea level usually its the base camp for shivlinga peak, you should have all the adequate resources for trekking in that altitude , including a guide .

The journey plan can be something like this :

Day 01 Arrive Delhi from Howrah :

Day 02 Delhi  to Haridwar :

Day 03 Haridwar to  Uttarkashi:

Day 04 Uttarkashi  to  Gangotri:

Day 05 Gangotri   to Bhojbasa trek via chirbasa. Nightstay  at Tent.

Day 06 Bhojbasa  to  Gaumukh  and trek to Tapovan. Overnight at Tent in Tapovan.  ( A MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE )

Day 07 Tapovan: Stay to explore the surrounding area.

Day 08 Tapovan  to Bhojbasa:

Day 9 Bhojbasa  to Gangotri:

Morning trek to Gangotri. On arrival check into the Hotel. Overnight at Hotel.

Day 10 Gangotri  to  Uttarkashi ( Optional Via Dharali )

Day 11: Back to Delhi

Day12: Departure for Howrah

You should prepare your own plan, after closely studying the route and other issues .

hope this helps
