You will ride through lush
green tea plantations and on to Majuli,
Asia's largest river island and also a World
Heritage site, see the endangered
Great One Horned Rhino and hordes of other rare wildlife in
Kaziranga National Park. You will stay
in the cleanest village in Asia located in the beautiful hill state of
Meghalaya, walk on living root
bridges, crawl through some of the longest limestone caves of Asia and
visit Cherrapunjee, the wettest place
on earth.
Across the Sela Pass (14,500 ft) in
Arunachal Pradesh, one of the highest
motor-able pass in the world, lies the 600 year
old Buddhist monastery of Tawang,
the second largest in Asia. In Tawang, you will ride on the road through
which HH The Dalai Lama had escaped to
India when China invaded Tibet. The lush green untouched forests of
Arunachal Pradesh will entice you to push deeper into the area and you
will meet numerous hill tribes along the way whose lifestyles have
remained relatively unchanged for centuries. Sample their food and stay in
their houses built on bamboo stilts. We will take you for walks into the
jungle and cross roaring rivers and streams on wildly swinging but
absolutely safe cane bridges. You can pay tribute to the soldiers who fell
in WW II and ride on the famous
Stillwell Road, built at a great human
cost, to stop the invading Japanese war machine.
Adventure motorcycling in North East India takes an exciting meaning as
you take a two hour ferry ride across the mighty
Brahmaputra River. You will meet real
warriors in Nagaland who practiced headhunting in living memory
and see their collection of human skulls. These old warriors are decorated
with tattoos on the faces and bodies. The old warriors will not survive
for long and with them, a unique tradition and culture will disappear
forever. Meet them before they vanish forever and see their amazing war
dance.
