From Muzaffarpur

Hornbill Festival from Muzaffarpur

December 1–10 · Kisama Heritage Village, Nagaland

The way this works. Book your own travel to Dimapur, from Muzaffarpur, via Kolkata, and we take over the moment you land: airport or station pickup, camp stay, all meals, guide, festival passes and permits. The 3D/2N package is ₹4,999 per person, final price, GST included.

By flight

Fly Muzaffarpur → Kolkata → Dimapur (or Guwahati). Bookable as one ticket; Kolkata has the deepest Northeast connectivity in India. From Muzaffarpur itself, the practical airport is Patna.

By train

Trains toward Howrah, then the Guwahati–Dibrugarh line into Dimapur, 24–40h total. The overnight stretch is fine; the whole thing is long.

Trip shape

3–4 days minimum (travel + 2 festival days); 6–7 days if you're adding Dzükou, Khonoma or Kaziranga.

Realistic budget from Muzaffarpur (per person)

Return travel Muzaffarpur → Dimapur₹5,000–₹9,000
Hornbill 3D/2N package (final, GST in)₹4,999
Festival stalls, shopping, extra food₹2,000–₹4,000
All-in from Muzaffarpur₹12,000–₹18,000

Fare bands are realistic returns booked 6–8 weeks out; December fares climb as the festival nears. We check live options for your dates on WhatsApp, free.

Arrival timing

Pickup batches leave Dimapur at 6:00 AM or 10:30 AM (airport and railway station both). Land by the evening before and we add a night near the station, or land by ~10:00 AM on Day 1 and go straight up the hill. Later than that and you miss the first festival afternoon.
