Sikkim is a microcosm of history, heritage, culture and natural beauty. The rich heritage seeped in Buddhism, the majestic Kanchendzonga and the green forest cover in this Himalayan state, the delicious food, cheerful and friendly people and much more that Sikkim has in store for an outsider to explore and discover. What could be a better way than to explore the outdoors in the best possible way on a motorcycle feeling the air and in commune with the nature?

The road never ends…only our vision does.

Hornbill Festival and Kaziranga Experience

6 Days

2-8 Dec

The state of Nagaland in the North East of India is home to several tribes each of which are distinct in their language, culture and customs. The festivals are important to the tribes as these revolve around agriculture, which is a major profession in the state. The Nagas consider their festivals sacred and so participation in these festivals is essential.
To encourage inter-tribal interaction and to promote cultural heritage of Nagaland, the Government of Nagaland organizes the Hornbill Festival every year in the first week of December. The festival is named after the Indian hornbill, the large and colourful forest bird, which is displayed in folklore in most of the state’s tribes.
If you are headed to the Hornbill festival, it’s a great opportunity to combine this trip with a stay and safari at the popular Rhino destination – Kaziranga National Park.
This experience will allow you to do just that.
