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.
Pune travellers route via Delhi, Hyderabad or Kolkata to Dimapur. The one-change booking rule applies: single PNR, protected connection.
Festival week fills fast, lock flights and stay together. Our camp beds and village homestays are included in every package, so one booking covers the hard parts.
