Backpack Northeast with Hornbill Festival

End the year in an awesome note! Belting away to the music at Hornibll and exploring hidden waterfalls and tribes  - Meghalaya and Nagaland!! You definitely shouldn't miss one of my favourite places on earth!

The north east of India is still pure, pristine, and untouched. And for many, its intimidating beauty seems just too far beyond reach and just too much! Right from staying with the locals, to their traditional food, dances, simple lifestyle and connect with nature, we shall soak in all of Meghalaya and Nagaland. Experience hidden waterfalls and lakes, and a hand at some adventure sports in Meghalaya as we connect with the lesser-known Khasi tribal people. Unlike ever before, this trip is gonna get trippier at the Hornbill festival in Nagaland! We dance away to a glorious life and world – with local artists and awesome music, dance through the night with people from across the world!
