Festivals in North East India
In North East India, festivals works best in Kohima and Khonoma, Majuli, Tawang, Ziro. Pushkar's fair, Hemis masks, Hornbill in Nagaland, Thrissur Pooram, Dev Deepawali in Varanasi, Goa's Carnival. Most follow the lunar calendar, so dates move each year; we confirm them before we build the route.
Festivals are the best and the hardest time to travel: rooms sell out, roads fill and dates shift with the moon. We hold rooms early, find vantage points and keep a quieter base nearby.
Every festival page lists the usual month and how to confirm the year's date. Check current status before you travel.
