Thinking of traveling to the Northeast corner of India? Trust us, it's worth it. We've got a rundown of amazing travel deals to help you unearth this hidden gem.

So, what's so special about North East India? Imagine stunning mountains, lush forests, incredible wildlife, and rich cultures, all tucked under the massive Himalayas. It is a place that is less traveled but it is full of surprises. You may have heard people refer to this region as the "Seven Sisters", which are the seven states - Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Assam, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Manipur and Tripura. Here, you can find everything from hill stations and tea gardens to monasteries and wildlife sanctuaries. Oh, and let's not forget the mighty Brahmaputra River and the local tribes who call this land home.

This area's got something for everyone. Whether you're a couple looking for a romantic getaway, a family wanting some quality time, or an adventure junkie craving thrills, North East India won't disappoint. And our vacation packages are designed to help you dig deep into this incredible part of the world.

Here's what you can expect:

Outdoorsy Stuff: You can go trekking in the mountains, like Mt. Kanchenjunga, Sandakphu, and Goecha La. If water's more your thing, try river rafting on the Brahmaputra.

Natural Wonders: Visit Mawsynram, known as the wettest place on Earth, or check out Meghalaya's awesome Seven Sisters Waterfalls and the living root bridges.

Local Culture: Take a river cruise in Assam to Kaziranga National Park—home to the one-horned rhinoceros—or ride the Darjeeling Himalayan Railways' toy train through scenic spots like Batasia Loop.

More Cool Places: Explore frozen Tsomgo Lake and Rumtek Monastery in Sikkim. In Arunachal Pradesh, Tawang Monastery is a must-see, as is the Ziro Festival in Nagaland.

Best of all, you can visit North East India any time of the year. Yep, even during the monsoon season, this place is magical.

Looking for a romantic honeymoon? Consider Darjeeling and Gangtok; these cozy hill towns have all the ingredients for love.

Best Time to Go to North East India

Looking for the best time to visit the North East? Aim for November to April. Why? Less rain, for one. Monsoons hit from July to September, making some roads a no-go and flooding places like Assam's Kaziranga Park. But if you're a hot weather fan, summer's cool too. Just expect temps to soar between 86°F and 97°F. Remember, the region's got everything from mountains to plains, so you'll find cooler spots in the highlands.

The scenery really pops after the monsoons, though. Picture mist-covered valleys and majestic mountains appearing like magic from the fog. While it's chilly in some spots, don't expect much snow. Wildlife lovers, Kaziranga becomes a critter-filled wonderland. And if you're into outdoor stuff like trekking or kayaking, summer's your season. Don't worry about crowds; all the top sights stay open.

How To Reach North East

So, how do you get to this awesome place? You've got options: roads, trains, and planes.

o By Air: Kolkata's your best bet for flying in. Direct flights connect to Assam, Manipur, Nagaland, and Tripura. Guwahati's airport is another good choice, with flights from big cities like Mumbai and Delhi.

o By Train: Again, Kolkata's the train hub for the northeast. Assam and Arunachal Pradesh have the best rail links. If you're heading to Mizoram or Tripura, you'll find the closest stations are New Jalpaiguri and Kumarghat. Just a heads-up, train trips can be long—the tracks aren't electrified.

o By Road: Buses run regularly from West Bengal to all over the northeast. The main highways are National Highways 31, 37, 38, and 40, which link Assam to the rest of India. If you prefer riding solo, taxis are a comfy but pricier option.

Best Places To Visit In North East

Thinking of exploring North East India? Due to its sheer size and diversity, you cannot cover everything in one visit. But there are some places that you should not miss. Here's the shortcoming:

1. Gangtok, Sikkim: Get ready, adventure lovers! Gangtok is the place from where you can go on a trek to Kangchenjunga. You also cannot miss the serene Tsomgo Lake and Rumtek Monastery. Want to go shopping? Hit M.G. road. Don't miss Ganesh Tok and the rugged Nathu La Pass.
