What people love about Eastern India Tours
Everything went according to the agreed plan, so I have nothing to complain about. Sometimes the driving was too long for a single day, it would be nicer if the tour included moving to hotels closer to the destinations, which would allow for more time to visit other places. I went during March, which meant that waterfalls had minimum to no water, so if you are interested in that, I would suggest a different season. My suggestion to the tour operator would be to add tours for Meghalaya that include more physical activities, like the bamboo trek, which can appeal to younger people. Some of the activities were too simple and not really worth hours of driving. Thank you for organising my trip and answering all my queries!

"This trip was the 2nd trip with Golden Triangle Tour and like the first resie I was completely satisfied. Amit, thank you very much for fulfilling my special requests with patience, I felt that I was in good hands during the whole trip, and with my special requests it was more than 4 weeks in total. I would also like to take this opportunity to express my special thanks to my guides and my driver in Nodostinden, Bipol and Rajastan. I can only wholeheartedly recommend Golden Triangle Tour

"It never happened. As previously advised I did not get a visa for India ao no trip. Lost everything Flights Trip. Pre and Post accommodation.VFS Global are the worst agency ever. If you send an email you get an auto reply saying the will contact 2 day after inquiry when they do respond they do not answer question but instead ask another question. Another 2 days wasted. Their phone inquired service is automated and directs to the useless email service.I lost everything and on contacting travel insurer was told that since I did not get a visa lnsurance did not cover that situation So complete loss. Will never go to India and will never deal tourradar again.

Discover Eastern India tours for every budget
Eastern India has some really solid budget-friendly tours worth checking out. There's a great 5-day trip through Meghalaya that takes you along the crystal-clear Umngot River and into Mawlynnong, which happens to be Asia's cleanest village. Our travelers love exploring the living root bridges and heading out early to see Cherrapunjee's caves and waterfalls - though they've found it's better to visit outside March if you want to see the falls really flowing. Another good pick is spending a week between Sikkim and Bengal; you'll wind through Darjeeling's tea gardens and catch the sunrise over Kanchenjunga from Tiger Hill. The route includes time at Ghoom Monastery, the botanical gardens and some interesting cultural spots around Gangtok. There's also a nature-focused option in Bhitarkanika's mangroves where you'll stay in jungle cottages and take boat trips to spot estuarine crocodiles and lots of local birds.
The luxury tours really shine with carefully planned routes and top-tier experiences. There's this excellent combo of the Golden Triangle with a Ganges river cruise that pairs Oberoi hotel stays with an elegant voyage down the river. Our guests keep telling us how well it balances pure comfort with genuine cultural moments, especially during the village stops along the Ganges. They particularly mention how good the food and service are on the ship. You'll get to see the Taj Mahal at sunrise and sunset when it's less crowded and visit local markets and heritage sites at just the right times. The private guides are real experts too - they know the history and meaning behind everything you're seeing.

Demographics
Our 16-day Northeast India route takes you deep into Sikkim, Assam and Nagaland with a really good mix of culture and nature. You'll spend time at Rumtek's monasteries, head out on wildlife safaris in Kaziranga to spot one-horned rhinos and get to know the traditional ways of life in Naga villages. Many travelers tell us they particularly love visiting the tea plantations around Jorhat and taking the crossing over the Brahmaputra to reach Majuli island. If you're keen to explore Meghalaya's lesser-known spots, we've got a route that takes in the limestone caves of Cherrapunjee, boat trips on crystal-clear rivers and also a visit to Mawlynnong, known as Asia's cleanest village. The North East Golden Triangle combines the spiritual Kamakhya Temple with wildlife watching in Kaziranga and wraps up in lively Shillong. Our local guides really know their stuff and can adjust the schedule so you can properly experience each place.
Our 12-day Northeast India circuit works really well for senior travelers - it's comprehensive but moves at a comfortable pace. Starting at Guwahati's ancient Kamakhya Temple, you'll head up to the fresh mountain air of Shillong and spend quality time wildlife spotting in Kaziranga National Park. There's plenty of time built in to explore the historic tea plantations of Jorhat and take a relaxing ferry over to Majuli island with its centuries-old monasteries. Another solid choice is our 10-day Sikkim tour where you'll catch sunrise over Kanchenjunga from Tiger Hills, visit Darjeeling's tea estates and take gentle walks through the flower nurseries of Kalimpong. Our German guests often mention how attentive the guides and drivers are, though they suggest timing your visit with Yumthang Valley's flowering season.
