Nagaland - remote Excitement
Private tour to Nagaland If you need someone to construct a tailor-made tour in India then Trinetra Tours based in Delhi is the place to go. Having used them for twenty years to organise photographic tours we renewed contact for a trip to Nagaland in NE India. From the moment we left Delhi airport arriving from the UK we were escorted to our chosen hotel. As there were 36 hours before our flight to Dimapur Trinetra arranged a bonus visit to the Lodhi Gardens and also the Bahai Lotus Temple. Great start. Our internal flights were all arranged by Trinetra according to our plans which were fully met. Arriving in Dimapur we were met by a ‘birding expert’ and his driver (also an expert, as roads are appalling after recent heavy rains causing flooding, landslides and potholes full of water.) Road development is on-going on a massive scale. However, the heights of the forested mountains with their rolling mists and the depth of the valleys were superb.We were able to visit Wokha, Kohima, Pfutso, Mokokchung quite far apart given the state of the roads and time taken. We had two objectives. The first was to visit the Nagaland Bible College. The whole area is dominated by Baptist churches. Our second target was bird-watching. We saw many birds, some in flight, some in dense foliage and some in the open. Be aware that internet access may not be easily available and ‘posh’ hotels do not exist, yet comfortable without the trimmings: but the experience will live with you afterwards. I ‘take my hat off’ to Trinetra Tours for managing to meet our objectives. Their Admin staff are very prompt and helpful as are staff on the ground.
