Day 2 Kolkata: Flower Market & Pottery Quarter
Day 2 Kolkata: Flower Market & Pottery Quarter
Today we will discover one of the most culturally fascinating cities in India starting early with a visit to the vibrant Mallick Ghat Flower Market, which offers a colourful, scent-filled overload near the banks of the River Howrah. Then we will make our way to see the clay model-makers’ haven of Kumartuli, where dramatic life-size idols are crafted out of river clay and straw, before continuing on to the impressive Parshwanath Temple (Jain temple) for a visual treat. These temples have a unique design, filled with lavish mirrors, ceramic tiles and ornate chandeliers, brought over by rich merchants from lands as far away as Iran, Japan and Europe. Finally, we'll explore the colonial side of the city, visiting the beautiful St John's Church and the fine architecture of B.B.D. Bagh's old buildings. We will end the day with a sunset boat ride on the river.
Day 3 Kolkata – Shillong - Cherrapunjee: Hills of Meghalaya
Day 3 Kolkata – Shillong - Cherrapunjee: Hills of Meghalaya
Depending on final flight times we plan to head to the airport mid-morning to take a 2-hour flight to the hill station of Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya state. From here we’ll head by road towards nearby Cherrapunjee, which holds the record as being one of the wettest places on earth (although typical rainfall is minimal in November). A night here gives us the opportunity to explore this fascinating and seldom visited region of India.
Approx. driving time: 3 hours
Day 4 Cherrapunjee – Tyrna - Shillong: Living Bridges Hike
Day 4 Cherrapunjee – Tyrna - Shillong: Living Bridges Hike
With an early start we’ll head out today to discover some of the spectacular scenery – most notably the waterfalls and valleys – which makes up the so-called "Scotland of the East". Whilst here we plan to undertake an adventurous walk to see some of the much-photographed living root tree bridges, including the famous Double Decker Root Bridge near the village of Tyrna. The walk involves a 7km return trek with a descent (and subsequent ascent) of approximately 250m. Most of the descent/ascent is on steps with 3500 each way and there are also rope bridges to cross. This 5-6 hour roundtrip experience (including stops) may prove a challenge for some but the rewards make it undeniably worthwhile. We will then drive on to Shillong stopping to visit the Nohkalikai waterfall, the tallest plunge waterfall in India, along, the way. This evening we will explore the hill station of Shillong spending time at the vibrant Police Bazaar with its shops, bars and restaurants.

After our visit we leave Meghalaya and take a full day’s drive across the state line into Assam. Our destination today is Kaziranga National Park, which was declared a UNESCO world heritage site in 1985. It is probably India’s foremost in terms of conservation success, variety and accessibility of species. The park lies on the flood plain of the mighty Brahmaputra river and vast acres of tall grass provide grazing for herds of wild elephant, gaur and wild Asian buffalo, among many others. This evening we will have our first taste of Assamese cuisine.
Approx driving time: 7 hours
Day 6 Kaziranga National Park: Jeep Safaris
Day 6 Kaziranga National Park: Jeep Safaris

The Shans, who came to this area from Thailand through Northern Myanmar in the early 13th century, ruled for around 600 years. The Siva Temple in Sivasagar, built by the Ahoms, is believed to be the tallest of all existing Hindu temples. We then continue on to Charaideo Moidams where we will see some of the large tumuli built by the Ahom for the burials of the kings and nobles. As we then enter the state of Nagaland we will notice the change in terrain as we enter the hills and the roads become more winding and rougher, but the views become more spectacular. In the late afternoon we will arrive in Mon from where we will base ourselves to explore the nearby Konyak villages.
Total driving time approx. 6 hours
Day 10 Mon: Konyak Villages
Day 10 Mon: Konyak Villages
Today we will explore the nearby area and experience the traditional aspects of Konyak villages. The people of Nagaland are known for their tattooed faces and bodies, and until quite recently the headhunting Naga tribes bravely fought off intruders. We plan to visit Longwa village which straddles the border between India and Myanmar. Much of this whole area still displays its old world charm and we can see the mansion belonging to the chief Angh and plenty of other houses which are built in the traditional Konyak style with palm-leaf roofing and the main pillars jutting out. The inhabitants of the village are well known for their excellent wood carving, handicraft and blacksmith skills which we’ll also have a chance to see. After lunch we plan to visit a second village, Hongphoi, where we will have a chance to meet the village elders – all former head-hunters and proud of their traditions.
Day 11 Mon: Tea Estate
Day 11 Mon: Tea Estate

There may also be the opportunity to take a walk around the village and meet some of the villagers. We’ll return to Mon in the afternoon.
Day 12 Mon – Mokokchung: Nagaland Scenery
Day 12 Mon – Mokokchung: Nagaland Scenery

It is the cultural centre of the Ao Nagas who live in the many surrounding villages.

Day 13 Mokokchung – Kohima: Cathedral & War Cemetery
Day 13 Mokokchung – Kohima: Cathedral & War Cemetery
We will rise early and visit the Ao village of Ungma and then drive for around six hours to reach Kohima today. Depending on our arrival time, we may have some time this afternoon to begin having a look around the town. The Catholic Cathedral here has the biggest wooden cross in Asia, but what will stay with us longest is our visit to the War Cemetery. This marks the infamous Battle of Kohima, the last post for the allied forces against the Japanese in World War II, and is beautifully maintained by the War Graves Commission. As we exit we pass an epitaph that reads: “When you go home tell them of us and say for your tomorrow we gave our today.”
Driving time approx. 6-7 hours

All the tribes of Nagaland take part and the festival is named after the hornbill, the globally respected bird which is displayed in folklore in most of the state’s tribes. It takes place in the village of Kisama, located around 12km from Kohima, and upon entering the village we pass through an enormous wooden gate that is adorned with a scimitar of horns and buffalo head.

IS THIS TRIP FOR ME?
It may sound obvious, but not all Wild Frontiers tours are the same, and it is important that you choose a tour which is suitable for you. To help you decide and ensure you choose a suitable tour, please refer to our helpful guide here. As a minimum, you should make sure that you read the day-by-day itinerary and the Key Aspects to Consider sections carefully. Should you still have any concerns about your ability to partake in any aspect of the tour, then please contact us.
KEY ASPECTS TO CONSIDER
Anyone in a reasonable state of health, with an open mind and a sense of adventure should be perfectly able to cope with this tour, however, please note this tour does visit some remote regions. This means there are some long bus drives on bumpy roads and the guesthouse accommodation in villages will be basic. Meals will be mainly taken at the accommodation or in local restaurants and whilst no doubt delicious will very much be local cuisine. Please note that some departures of this tour involve visiting tribal villages with festivals. Accordingly the specifics for these days will often be decided on the spot by your tour leader and can therefore be subject to change at short notice depending on the programme of the festivals. The hike to visit the living bridges involves walking down and then back up 3500 steps so will require a decent level of fitness.
THE NATURE OF ADVENTURE TRAVEL
We feel that it’s worth pointing out that while we will always strive to stick as close to the stated itinerary as possible, it may be necessary from time to time to make changes to our itineraries or services (due to weather, political and religious influences etc.) and this can happen with little or no notice. This unpredictability can be one of the most exciting aspects of adventure travel and for many of our clients often leads to unexpected highlights as the tour-leader necessarily adapts the tour to the changing conditions. However we are aware that this lack of assuredness may not suit everyone. As such, with the greatest respect, if you are someone who needs to know that everything will happen exactly as planned, we would kindly suggest that perhaps our tours are not for you. Adventure travel can be infectious and once you’ve caught the bug, it is likely to never leave you, but especially if this is your first such tour we would strongly urge you to give us a call if you have any concerns whatsoever about your suitability for this trip.
TRAVELLING SOLO AND SINGLE SUPPLEMENTS
As a company approximately 70% of our clients are solo travellers, so it’s very unlikely you’ll be alone!
Our prices are typically based on twin-share accommodation but single supplements are not compulsory for any Wild Frontiers tour. If you prefer not to pay a single supplement we’ll pair you with someone else of the same sex for you to share with throughout the trip.
On this trip, if you do opt to pay for a single supplement then please note that it will cover you for all nights of the tour except if staying at Diphlu River Lodge in Kaziranga National Park where it may be necessary to share.
Please note that paying a single supplement entitles you to lone occupancy of a single room. In many cases these rooms will be of the same size as a double/twin room, but in some cases they may be smaller.
INSURANCE
Insurance that provides cover for emergency repatriation in case of a medical emergency is compulsory for all tours. You should be aware that due to some of the geographical areas visited and some of the activities included on certain of our trips some standard insurance policies may not always provide adequate cover. As such we strongly recommend that you purchase a policy that adequately covers your trip. Please see the Insurance section for more details.
