Pick-ups happen from Guwahati Railway Station, Guwahati Airport, and Jalukbari Junction. These are on the route out of the city, and the vehicle will not stop or enter Guwahati city beyond these points. If you arrive a day earlier, you can choose a stay close to any of these points for convenience.

We stay in handpicked homestays, hotels, resorts, river stays, or farm stays that are clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully run. These aren’t luxury hotels, but places that feel warm, often hosted by local families. It’s a big part of experiencing Arunachal more closely-through its people, spaces, and everyday rhythms.

Rooms are shared on a double or triple sharing basis. If you’re travelling solo, you’ll be paired with traveler(s) of the same gender, based on the type of occupancy you choose while booking the trip.

Please note that the final allocation is handled by the Trip Leader to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Food during the trip is simple, fresh, and home-style. Most meals are prepared at the stays or eaten at local eateries along the way. 

You can expect:

• Breakfasts like poori–sabzi, roti-sabzi, toast, eggs, or similar 
• Lunches at local eateries along the way 
• Dinners with rice, dal, vegetables, and meat preparations 

There’s also a special experience of a traditional Monpa meal during a village visit, which gives you a glimpse into the local Monpa food culture. Vegetarian options are available throughout the trip.

In more remote regions like Mago or Chumi Gyatse, meal timings may shift slightly depending on road and weather conditions, but we will ensure you’re well taken care of.

Since most major expenses are already covered, you won’t need much. Around ₹500–₹1,000 per day is usually enough for snacks, lunch, café stops, or small personal purchases.

UPI works in most places, even in remote areas of Arunachal Pradesh, but network issues might hinder digital payments, so carrying some cash is helpful.

Network is available in most towns. BSNL, Airtel, and Jio work well in Arunachal. However, as we move into higher altitudes and more remote areas, the network can become weak or completely unavailable.

Most stays offer Wi-Fi, but speeds are usually limited. It’s a good idea to inform family or work in advance that you may be out of network for certain stretches; it’s part of being in the mountains.

This journey runs from May to early November, covering spring, summer, and monsoon in the Eastern Himalayas. The weather changes as you gain altitude.

Places like Dirang and Shergaon remain pleasant, with cool mornings and comfortable days. As you move higher towards Sela Pass and Tawang, it gets noticeably colder, especially in the mornings and evenings.

From June to September, you can expect rain, mist, and incredibly lush landscapes. October and early November bring clearer skies after the monsoon, with fresh greenery still around.

Snowfall doesn’t occur during this time, but you may still come across old snow patches at higher passes depending on recent weather.

In the mountains, weather can be unpredictable, especially during the monsoon months. Rain, fog, or minor landslides may occasionally slow things down or require route adjustments.

If that happens, our on-ground crew will handle and adapt the plan accordingly. The focus is always on keeping the journey safe, meaningful, and immersive, while making small changes if required, along the way.
