Overview
Set off on a 16-day adventure through the wildlife reserves, wetlands and rambling mountain villages of northeastern India. Learn about the cultures of Sikkim, Assam and Nagaland, search for the iconic one-horned rhinoceros in Kaziranga National Park and pick tea leaves with a local farming community in Darjeeling. Explore the floating villages of Majuli Island, visit Gangtok’s controversial Rumtek Monastery and check out a living root bridge – the handiwork of the Khasi people.
