Travellers Love Arunachal Pradesh

We are really happy!

Our 15 days Northeast India trip covering Assam, Arunachal and Nagaland with Nexplore Travel Company 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. 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.

Lovely experience for me and my family

We did a 10 day tour with my parents visiting Kaziranga, Tawang, Meghalaya in our trip. Mr. Manash who was our point of contact from Nexplore is a very polite gentleman who made this awesome trip possible for us. He helped us design a custom itinerary suiting our schedule and booked excellent accommodations. The person who drove us throughout the trip, Mr. Ganesh, was also a very pleasant person to travel with. The overall experience with Nexplore was awesome and their rates are also very reasonable.

A Wonderful Family Journey

Our family trip to Northeast with Nexplore was wonderful! They customized our itinerary to suit our budget, accommodated our preferences. What we especially appreciated was their flexibility. They adjusted the itinerary to include special experiences, such as dolphin watching on the Brahmaputra River, visiting the Mawphlang Sacred Forest etc. The team was helpful, attentive and willing to make changes to ensure we could enjoy the places that mattered most to us without stretching our budget unnecessarily. We truly appreciated their local knowledge and personal attention throughout the planning process. Highly recommended for a memorable Northeast India holiday!

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.

19 days through Arunachal Pradesh

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. They are probably the best travel agents for Northeast India tours. I found the contact on Google and got in touch with the team. I requested to combine two separate tour itineraries into one. The team was prompt in planning, replying and a proposed quote.

Apatani Tribe: What You Will Experience

Ziro Valley is not just a scenic hill station; it is a living museum of sustainable living. During our 5-day Ziro tour package, your local guide will introduce you to the fascinating traditions of the indigenous Apatani community:

  • Iconic Tattoos & Nose Plugs: We will take a respectful guided walk through ancient Apatani villages like Hong and Hari. Here, you will have the rare chance to meet the tribal clan elders who carry the legendary facial tattoos and traditional wooden nose plugs—a historic cultural custom unique to this valley.
  • Eco-Friendly Farming (Paddy-cum-Fish): You will stand among the sprawling, lush green rice fields to see their famous farming methods. The Apatanis have mastered the art of raising fish directly inside flooded rice paddies, managing a perfect ecosystem without using modern machines, tractors, or farm animals.
  • The Sacred Donyi-Polo Traditions: Discover the valley's deep spiritual connection to nature. The community follows the ancient animist Donyi-Polo faith (Sun and Moon worship). Throughout the traditional villages, you will see unique bamboo structures, totem poles, and community platforms used for village councils.
  • Authentic Local Cuisine: Experience true tribal hospitality. Depending on your travel preferences, you can sample authentic local dishes like Pika Pila (a traditional local pickle), bamboo shoot delicacies, and organic local wines crafted right in the valley from fresh kiwi and wild apples.
