3 Backpacking Tips For Your Northeast Tour

•           Pack The Right Clothes

The weather in every Northeastern state is different. If you want to pack the right clothes so you can cope up with the unpredictable weather, get in touch with a travel agent. It is mostly a hilly and mountainous region, so you can expect a cold climate. On the other hand, the Brahmaputra plain of Assam so the climate can be really hot. The best you can do is to carry two sets of clothes. There are few hotels without a heating facility or electric stoves. You might have to use thick blankets to deal with the chilly nights. Meghalaya experiences a lot of rain.

•           Have The Permits And Put Them In Your Backpack

You might need a few permits during the Northeast trip. If you plan to visit Nagaland or Arunachal and want to catch a glimpse of the famous Mithun Ox, you will need the Protected Area Permits. Earlier, foreigners required expensive permits to visit the state. There are relaxations now. You just need the PAP (Protected Area Permit). If the travel agency has arranged for the permits in advance, print them and put them in your backpack.

•           Take A Road Map If You Don’t Know The Road Well

Northeast India is a developing region, so the roads are not always in top condition. There are some newly paved roads where you have to drive very carefully. The conditions of the mountain roads are not too good, so it might take hours for you to reach a tourist destination. Unless you know the roads well, don’t plan the trip in such a way so that you have to visit many tourist places in a short time. If the duration of your Northeast Tour package is two weeks, include one or two states in your trip itinerary.
