Some trips are planned months in advance.
And some… just happen. ✨
Our Arunachal Pradesh trip was one of those sudden decisions — an 11th-hour plan.
Scrolling through Google for travel suggestions, I came across Izifiso’s page. One call with Arpita, and I instantly felt we were in the right hands. We shared our travel dates, group size, and preferences with Debolina, and she designed a plan that felt custom-made for us.
Just one request from our side:
“We want at least 1-2 days in a peaceful offbeat place.”
Because every trip deserves that cherry on the top. 🍒
And that’s how the journey began.
Day 1 — Guwahati → Jameri
We started from Guwahati and reached Jameri — a small, quiet, flower-filled mountain village.
Our stay was a cozy homestay surrounded by nature.
Simple, warm, and welcoming — exactly how a first day should feel.
Day 2 — Sangti Valley
Next morning, we drove to the dreamy Sangti Valley.
A valley wrapped in green hills, with the river flowing across its heart.
Our riverside homestay was surreal — the soothing sound of flowing water stayed with us the entire night.
The next day, breakfast by the river with mist rolling over the valley felt like something out of a postcard.
Day 3 — Toward Tawang
We left Sangti with a heart full of quiet joy and headed toward Tawang.
The weather was perfect — clear blue skies and a gentle cold breeze greeted us.
Day 4 — Bumla Pass (15200 ft)
This was the day we were waiting for.
Bumla Pass — the India-China border, and a historic site from the 1962 Indo-China War.
We started early. On the way, we realized we had left our charger at the stay in Tawang — so the route changed a bit. And honestly?
It turned out to be a blessing.
The scenic beauty on the alternate route was unbelievable —
Layers of mountains, monasteries in the distance, Tawang town shining below us — like a painting.
At Bumla Pass, Indian Army officers guided us, explained the history of the war, current border situation, and even clicked and printed a group photo for us (a memory to treasure ❤️).
After Bumla, we visited the beautiful Madhuri Lake, stopping by several lakes where the reflections of the sky made everything look like magic.
Day 5 — Nuranang Waterfall Stay
We reached Nuranang, where our stay was right beside the waterfall.
Imagine waking up to the sound of a giant waterfall and mist floating in the air.
A calendar-worthy view — real and alive.
The next morning, we spent time near the falls — peaceful, refreshing, unforgettable.
Day 6 — Shergaon
Our journey continued toward Shergaon.
We tried Baroli Fish for the first time on the way!
As soon as we reached Shergaon, the rain started — and the homestay staff came running with umbrellas, ensuring none of us got wet.
Simple hospitality, but it touched our hearts.
When the rain cleared and the power went out, the valley appeared under moonlight — glowing, silent, and unreal.
We sat around a campfire, talking, laughing, soaking in the beauty of the mountains.
Two seniors in our group (my mother and aunt) felt slightly unwell — but the homestay staff constantly checked on them, offering warmth, care, and help.
Their kindness is something I will always remember.
The Journey Back
The next morning, we tasted a local fruit called Ramphal, sweet and refreshing.
With bags full of pictures, memories, and stories — we drove back to Guwahati.
What We Brought Home
- Countless photographs 📸
- A heart full of mountain silence 🌄
- New friendships and warm hospitality 💚
- And memories we will carry forever.
Arunachal was not just a trip.
It was a feeling.
