    I'm using the latest TOR bundle, I am able to connect to the TOR network and able to load www sites thru TOR but for some unknown reason not able to load onion sites. However if I connect to TOR inside a VPN
    tunnel I am able to load onion sites.

    Could it be my ISP is somehow intercepting my TOR connection?

    Make sure you're using the latest version of the TOR bundle first.

    Everything to your entry guards is encrypted. I can't imagine that there's any observable difference between "you<->guard" traffic for regular websites vs hidden services.
