My anniversary outing 2024 - To escape the scorching heat the Adobe of clouds or i can say the cluster of mountains- Meghalaya is a perfect getaway. We had a warm welcome at Guwahati airport... read more in Assamese style, our guide was very friendly and supportive. The best part was the changes in temperature right from Umiam lake to Shillong to Chirapunjee to Mawlynnong and last but not the least Dowki. We had our moments, made good memories across the water falls, falling in love with the scenic mountains with the touch of the clouds & in the lap of nature was single root bridges which made our trip a short and sweet memory which I always want to come back again.

Thank you Rajiv, Anup & North East Explorers team for making us feel comfortable throughout our journey

The price was reasonable, Mr... read more Rajiv was always helpful and ready to adjust the itinerary to our expectations - even when the conditions were not favourable for us, the ferries were full or suspended because of the thick fog. The guesthouses he organized for us were neat and clean, and the food there was amazing. The best part of our trip was Majuuli Island, a truly enchanting place, and we had the honour of being invited to a bihu ceremony. I can recommend the company to anybody who is interested in the culture and nature of the North-East.

The assigned driver, Ashiq was... read more knowledgeable and great on mountain roads. The homestays that were selected were comfortable, located in towns close to shops/ walking paths and hosted by locals who were happy to share social time with us. We played with their dogs, hung out with local dancers, drank local brews and slept in warm cosy beds. We enjoyed this trip thoroughly and would recommend it for anyone who is too hassled about the planning but would love to visit the NE. We visited as a family of 3, with a 10yr old.

  Good trip  - We travelled to the Northeast for 8 days with North East Explorers. Right from planning to execution, Rajiv was always available when I had any questions or doubts. I travelled... read more with my parents and Rajiv made sure that the itinerary was well suited for my parents too. Rajiv also helped us with Kamakhya temple visit. The Northeast can get a little tricky if you are a vegetarian. Our driver and guide, Apu made sure that we get good vegetarian food. Apu also provided information about the local culture and attractions. The homestays were neat and clean. All in all, we had a good experience with North East Explorers.

  Memorable Trip  - We chose Northeast Explorers for a 1 week trip to Tawang. I must stay it was one of the best and unforgettable experience. We had a very comfortable journey and... read more covered every destination as per the pre-planned itinerary and in leisure.

  We were a big family of twelve people from Bangalore.
We went to Assam, Arunachal Predesh, and Nagaland for 14 nights.
Our visit included monasteries in Tawang district of Arunachal... read more Pradesh, We visited high altitude places like the Sela Pass and the BumLa Pass near the indo-Chinese border.
We visited Majuli island in Assam and also went to the Khonoma village in Nagaland. We booked mainly in Airbnbs throughout our trip.
Our experience;
The Airbnbs were so beautiful, each one of them. Simple and yet cozy. The breakfast was simple, but we decided that we would order dinner at our homestays , instead of going in search of restaurants. So we would finish our sightseeing and come right back for a late lunch.
We ordered the local foods , made by the hosts themselves.
Each and every host of our airbnbs had made fantastic meals. Absolutely delicious food. Dal, rice, pulkas, two or three subzis and more.
The beds were very comfortable and clean, toilets were simple yet clean.
We travelled everywhere in the local Tempo Traveller.(but in the Innova - to go to Sela pass and BumLa pass)
All in all , we had a wonderful time and stay thanks to Rajiv Verma and his team

  Awesome Meghalaya and Kaziranga Trip - We just returned from an Amazing 8 day tour of Meghalaya and Kaziranga with North East Explorers.
We covered Shillong, Cherrapunji, Shnogpedeng, Jowai in Meghalaya. Had a great experience with... read more North East Explorers - where Rajeev assisted us right from planning stage. The home stays provided were very neat, clean, safe and comfortable - where the hosts / attendents took good care of us and our requirements. Rajeev kept on checking in on us through the entire trip - which felt nice.

We also took the services of a guide for the David Scott Trail and on the DDLR bridge. Both the guides provided were extremely knowledgeable, cheerful and energetic and made the treks pleasant.

The stay at Shnongpedeng at Pioneer was amazing...across the river in a camp. They have a small private beach. The camp facilities are basic - which makes it all the more authentic with picturesque view.. The hosts at the camp Livingstar and Shining were very very helpful. The food was nice and homely.

The stays at Jowai at Have's Cove and Seuj Nibas at Kaziranga were also very good.

The cherry on the cake was Apu, our driver - who was most reliable. Being a local, he was very insightful and entertained us with lots of local tales and culture. He also served as a guide and would suggest appropriate places and timings for local sightseeing enroute. He knew exactly the places to halt for lunch, etc.

While you may feel that the overall charges for the trip to be marginally higher than the other providers, i would still recommend North East Explorers - for sheer care, comfort and reliability of the homestays, driver provided and overall planning the trip.
