Tribal North East India Holidays

As you hit the highway out of Guwahati you know you’re on the very edge of India, and are about to venture somewhere rather special. These lands are unexpected and nothing like the rest of the country. The remote tribal regions of the North East are quite possibly India’s best kept secret.

Here you can stay in a family home in Majuli, the world’s largest river island where houses are built on stilts. You can cruise down the mighty Brahmaputra river in luxury, and explore the villages on the banks. Or say hello to the one-horned rhino in Kaziranga National Park before heading back to the peace of the river lodge. This is also where you can rub shoulders with head-hunting tribes, have a proper cup of tea in Assam, and walk across forest rivers on the famous living root bridges in Meghalaya, the “Abode of the Clouds”. This latter little pocket of India is fondly known as the “Scotland of the East” - a land where clouds sit at the bottom of valleys.
