Explore Untamed India on Two Wheels

Discover the hidden gems of India’s far north-east on an exhilarating motorcycle journey through Arunachal Pradesh, a region nestled between Bhutan, Burma, and Tibet. Once a part of the North-East Frontier Agency (NEFA), this remote land is a treasure trove of unspoiled natural beauty and rich cultural diversity. Arunachal Pradesh was largely off-limits to outsiders until 1995, and even today, its mystique remains intact. Home to ancient tribes, animistic beliefs, and untamed landscapes, this journey offers a rare glimpse into a world far removed from mainstream India.

Riding through lush green mountains, winding roads, and meeting the tribes who once practiced headhunting, this 12-day adventure will take you to the wild and uncharted corners of India.
