Nagaland Tourism Packages

Nestled in the hills of the Patkai and Naga ranges, Nagaland stands as the homeland of the valiant Naga tribes. Nagaland is the dwelling place of 14 major indigenous tribes, each offering a unique tapestry of costumes, festivals, culture, and traditions. The rich heritage is showcased through traditional attire, ornate headgear, captivating dance forms, and exquisite wood carving, all serving as significant attractions of Nagaland.

Nagaland is one of the most fascinating destinations for a tribal tour in India. The Hornbill Festival, held annually from December 1st to 10th, is the best time to witness the rich traditions and diverse cultures of all Naga tribes up close.
Nagaland is also home to the last generation of the legendary Konyak headhunter tribe. You can visit their remote villages, where elderly headhunters still reside, and explore their homes adorned with animal skulls, reflecting their warrior heritage.

Our Nagaland Tour Reviews

We are really happy !
Our trip with Nexplore Travel Company was amazing from the start. Anushila, who helped us plan, was very good at answering our questions and making sure our trip was just what we wanted.
Once we began our journey, we were lucky to have Manash as our guide. He took excellent care of us, making sure everything went smoothly.
Joynat, our driver, was great at driving in India's busy streets and made us feel safe.
We had a wonderful time and think Nexplore is the best choice for anyone who wants a fun trip without any worries. We give Nexplore five stars!

Thank you for a wonderful experience
We are a group of 5 people from France and we went on a tour with Nexplore Travel. Our trip to Nagaland, Arunachal, Assam, and Meghalaya was fantastic. Our guide, Manash, was incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our visit to the Seven Sisters of Northeast India exceptional.

Frequently Asked Questions — Nagaland tour Packages

Yes. Indian and foreign nationals require an Inner Line Permit (ILP) to enter Nagaland. Indian citizens can apply online through the Nagaland government's official ILP portal or in person at designated offices in Guwahati, Delhi, Kolkata, Shillong, and Dimapur. Foreign nationals obtain the ILP through a registered tour operator and must also register at the Foreigners' Registration Office within 24 hours of arrival in Nagaland. Nexplore handles all ILP processing for both Indian and international travellers as part of every Nagaland package — you only need to provide a valid government-issued photo ID and two passport-size photographs.

The Hornbill Festival is held every year from December 1 to 10 at Kisama Heritage Village, approximately 12 km from Kohima. It is Nagaland's biggest cultural celebration — often called the "Festival of Festivals" — and features performances, crafts, traditional food, music, and indigenous games from Nagaland's 17 officially recognised scheduled tribes, as well as tribes from other Northeast Indian states. Hotels, homestays, and guesthouses in and around Kohima fill up completely during the festival period, sometimes as early as August. We strongly recommend booking your Hornbill Festival tour package at least 3–4 months in advance.

October to March is the best time to visit Nagaland overall. The weather is cool and dry, roads are in excellent condition, and tribal village visits are most comfortable. Two other important festivals are worth timing a visit around: the Sekrenyi Festival of the Angami tribe in February (held in Kohima district), and the Aoliang Festival of the Konyak tribe in February (held in Mon district). Both offer authentic cultural experiences with less tourist footfall than Hornbill. The monsoon months of June to September should generally be avoided due to heavy rainfall, frequent landslides, and difficult road conditions throughout the state.

The Konyak are one of Nagaland's most fascinating tribes, historically known as headhunters — a practice that ended in the mid-20th century with the arrival of Christianity in the region. Today, elderly Konyak men with traditional facial tattoos and ornamental headgear are among the last living bearers of this heritage.
Villages in Mon district, particularly Longwa — a village that straddles the India–Myanmar border — welcome tourist visits and have become an important part of the local economy.
Local guide is essential to visit Konyak tribes villages. All visits are arranged through experienced local guides and conducted with respect for tribal customs and prior community permission. Nexplore works with trusted local guides in Mon for all Konyak village tours.

Dimapur is Nagaland's main entry point and transport hub. From Guwahati, it is approximately 280 km by road, taking 4–5 hours. Dimapur also has a domestic airport with direct flights from Guwahati, Kolkata, Delhi and Imphal. From Dimapur, Kohima (the state capital) is about 74 km and takes around 3 hours by car on a winding hill road.

Yes. Nagaland is a safe and welcoming destination for tourists. The state has seen significant improvement in peace and stability over the past two decades and tourism has grown steadily as a result. Kohima, Dimapur, Mokokchung, and Mon are regularly visited by both Indian and international travellers. As with any travel in Northeast India, it is advisable to travel with a reputed local tour operator, follow local customs and dress codes (especially during festival events and village visits), and avoid restricted border zones without the appropriate permits. Nexplore has operated Nagaland tours since the early years of tourism development in the state and all our local guides are fully vetted.

Dzukou Valley, situated on the border of Nagaland and Manipur at approximately 2,452 metres, is one of Northeast India's most celebrated trekking destinations. Known as the "Valley of Flowers of the Northeast," it is carpeted with rare Dzukou lilies (blooming July to September) and rhododendrons (spring).
The trek begins either from Viswema village (10 km, moderate, 3–4 hours) or from the Manipur side at Jakhama. Camping in the valley overnight is a popular option for a fuller experience. The monsoon season offers the most dramatic bloom but also the most slippery trail conditions — October to April is the best period for a comfortable trek. Nexplore includes Dzukou Valley as an add-on option to Kohima-based itineraries.

Yes, and this is one of our most popular Northeast India combinations. A 10–12 day itinerary can comfortably cover Kaziranga National Park and Majuli Island in Assam, followed by Kohima and tribal village visits in Nagaland. Combining all three states — Assam, Meghalaya, and Nagaland — is possible in 14–16 days and makes for a richly varied journey through wildlife, waterfall landscapes, and Naga tribal culture. For December travel, the Hornbill Festival (December 1–10) pairs naturally with a pre or post-festival extension to Kaziranga or Meghalaya. Contact us to build a custom multi-state itinerary.
