"Memorable Festival & cultural tour in Northeast"
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!"

"Memorable family heritage tour to Assam"
We had a wonderful visit to Assam and 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.

"A fabulous trip with Nexplore."
We had a fabulous 9-day tour in Assam with Nexplore. Our focus was on seeing the wildlife of Kaziranga National Park, and on silk-making from the silkworm to the finished product. It was awesome to meet the villagers who grew and cared for the silkworms, and who those who have a huge talent preparing and weaving the silk. Majuli was a fascinating place to see, and crossing the Brahmaputra to get there an experience also. Manesh our guide, and Robin our driver ensured we saw and experienced all that and more. They were also great company and looked after us well. The food and accommodation were all excellent and we especially loved the Banyan Grove Tea Resort - a lovely place for the last night of our tour.

"19 days Arunachal Pradesh road 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!
