Arunachal is the least densely populated state of India which is pure, peaceful, unpolluted and unmatched scenic beauty.
Tucked amidst the high passes of eastern Himalayan range and home to The Lamas, The Tawang valley, situated at a varying height of 10,000 feet above sea level is a sight to behold. It has the largest Buddhist Monastery in the country that houses a 28 feet high golden Buddha statue.
Tawang is home to many glacial lakes that are absolutely heavenly. To reach Tawang, one has to pass through Sela pass at an altitude of 13,700 feet. Sela is one of the highest passes in the world, close to the international borders, where travelers can enjoy a beautiful journey encountering hoards of Army vehicles.
The stone village of Dirang, the apple orchards town of Bomdila, the Indo-China border pass Bum La at an altitude of 15200 ft above sea level are added attractions. BumLa pass is a great example of how Indian soldiers protect our country at harshest of terrains and climates.
The colorful and ancient architecture of monasteries & stupas is well complimented by the smile & hospitality of people, and rich traditions of the Buddist culture.
Wait no more. Travel to this “silent paradise” with your own gang!

Special Notes:
- Expect seasonal variations in Arunachal depending on the month we are travelling
- Travelers are expected to come with open heart by appreciating complexities of mother nature based on seasonal variations, monthly or even daily weather conditions.
- This is not a luxury trip. This is a group trip with basic facilities.
Seasonal Variations:
- Mid Mar to June: Summers are pleasant in Tawang which pull tourists in good numbers.
- Jul to mid Sept (monsoons): The rains hit the eastern Himalayas starting from mid June. Journey would be tough during this time. We usually avoid traveling to Arunachal in these months.
- Mid Sept to Nov (Post monsoon): Another good season to travel before extreme winter sets in. One can expect high tourist footfall in these months.
- Dec to mid Mar: Temperatures will drop below 0 degrees towards the end of the year with the onset of snow fall covering the entire valley. It will be very difficult to travel and important roads will be closed by Indian Army.
