" Memorable family heritage tour to Assam"
We had a wonderful visit to Assam! Thanks to Nexplore travel for the first class organisation of our trip. We contacted them to explain the main purpose of our visit was to see where family members were born, worked in the tea industry and spent time. Manash managed to arrange this perfectly and exceeded our expectations. All other aspects of the itinerary were also perfect, well organised, interesting and memorable. Would definitely recommend Nexplore and Manash in particular. Our driver Mr Joynath was also very good, friendly and made our trip memorable .

We did 15 days tribal tour in Northeast India with Nexplore. Our trip was amazing. 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.
Joynath, 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!"

"Wonderful Arunachal Pradesh & Nagaland trip"
We are city folks from Singapore and to have experienced Arunachal Pradesh and Assam rugged beauty, landscape, history, culture and food is awesome.
This 19 days trip was made possible by Nexplore Travel. I found the contact on Google and got in touch with the team. For me, I requested to combine two separate tour itineraries into one. Manash was prompt in planning, replying and a proposed quote. We chatted entirely and confirming the tour by messaging. On a separate note-you need to happy with homestays and hotels booked, a comfortable stay with breakfast inclusion and other meals requests makes a trip wonderful...

"A Unique and Authentic Experience!"
Traveling from Germany, I was looking for a offbeat experience—and Nexplore delivered right ! The Assam and Hornbill Festival tour was well-organized, rich in local traditions, and filled with unforgettable moments.
From spotting rhinos in Kaziranga to experiencing the vibrant Hornbill Festival in Nagaland, every day was a new adventure. Our guide was excellent, and the entire trip felt safe, smooth, and meaningful.
Highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper look into Northeast India!
