Our exclusive 13-Night Treasures of India itinerary is your dream North East getaway.
A path less trodden, the North East of India is a pristine realm of natural beauty, wildlife wonders, and cultural charm.
The region comprises the Seven Sister States (Assam, Sikkim, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Arunachal Pradesh).
Much of this part of India is sparsely populated and is tucked away in the shadows of the majestic Eastern Himalayas with some 200 indigenous tribes dotting its landscape.
Infrastructure was historically weak, but in recent years there’ve been massive strides in terms of better roads, air and train travel, and tourism infrastructure, resulting in a massive rise in tourist numbers.
Resplendent Travel’s North East Itinerary is designed by veteran travel advisors and consultants with decades of collective experience providing high-end luxury.
Ours is a well-rounded 13-Nights Itinerary that covers the best attractions this region offers.
