Assam & Nagaland: Living Traditions

A longer journey through the Northeast, centred on local hosts, community-led encounters and varied landscapes.

Kolkata, Kaziranga, Kohima & Nagaland

Use this route as a starting point. We can add a night where you want to linger, introduce a special interest or adjust the hotels to suit your style.

What you can experience on this route

  • Kolkata — Explore Kolkata’s neighbourhoods, historic buildings and food traditions, with time to follow the city’s creative life.
  • Kaziranga — Explore the reserve with an approved naturalist and safari arrangements. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed; quieter forest moments are part of the experience.
  • Kohima — Explore Nagaland’s capital through its history and local food, arranging community visits with permission and local hosts.

Make the journey your own

This 18-day outline brings together Kolkata, Kaziranga, Kohima & Nagaland. The number of nights, daily activities and choice of hotels can change to suit your priorities. Tell us which experiences you would like to spend more time on, and whether you prefer early starts, relaxed afternoons or a balance of both.

We discuss the transfers between stops alongside the sightseeing, so that you can judge the pace of the whole trip. Your proposal will set out the agreed route and selected arrangements before you book.
