✨A Journey of confidence and connection in North East India✨
Our guest Iris from New Zealand loved her adventurous trip to Northeast India — an offbeat, remote, less-travelled area of the country.
Our partner Gaurav is a Northeast India specialist and he put together a deeply immersive itinerary that included:
🌿 a temple tour of Kolkata
🌿 boat cruise through the Sunderbans
🌿 visit to Bodhgaya, where the Buddha attained enlightenment
🌿 journey to Darjeeling on the famous “toy train”
🌿stay with with a Buddhist family in Sikkim, in a village of the Limbu tribal community that is in the shadow of mighty Kanchendzonga Mountain
Iris wrote a glowing review:
“I have just returned from a wonderful 4-week tour of North East India arranged by India for Beginners. I’m an older solo traveller, and although I’ve been to India before, this region was completely new to me — and it was absolutely magical! 🌄✨
From Darjeeling and Sikkim to Bodh Gaya, the Sunderbans, and Kolkata, every detail was beautifully planned. 🚗🚆✈️ Thanks to Mariellen and Gaurav, all my travel and accommodation worked seamlessly — and the guides and drivers were professional, caring, and kind.
What truly stood out was the 24/7 WhatsApp support set up by Gaurav. It made me feel completely safe and supported throughout the journey — and my family back home loved knowing that help was always just a message away 💬💛
This was a trip filled with beauty, care, and connection — everything a solo traveller could hope for.
Thank you, Mariellen, Gaurav, and Ajay, for an unforgettable adventure through one of India’s most captivating regions.” 🙏✨
