All About It
- Difficulty - Moderate
Famous as "the land of the rising sun", Arunachal Pradesh is one of the largest Indian states, yet the least explored one. It's the very same land where the sun greets the Indian territory first and then make its way to the western side. Rich in flora and fauna, this state flaunts the most dramatic landscapes of valleys, mountains and forests. It's the forests of Arunachal Pradesh that holds the rarest research material one could ever find anywhere else in India.
From the endless list of rarest vegetations to more than 115 dwelling tribes, Arunachal represents the most diverse cultural amalgamation with the wild. A random walk through any territory of Arunachal and you are in front of sleepy hills, gushing rivers, gigantic waterfalls, unending valleys, colourful butterflies and surprising rainbows.
Arunachal Pradesh is bordered by Bhutan, Myanmar and China. The monuments across the state are proof that the territory has always been ruled by variety of dynasties having their kingdoms running in the wilderness. There are around 20 main tribes, and more than 115 sub-tribes, which keeps the entire state culturally alive. It's the only Indian territory that gives you the preserved civilisation of tribal culture blended in unadulterated natural beauty.

Had recently been with Solo Yolo for their unseen Kashmir trip. Trust me it’s just not any random tour but rather truly immersive experience created by the team. Those who are looking for a true offbeat experience, slow travel, deep delving into Kashmir’s beautiful landscapes and culture. This itinerary is just made for you. Every location Sunny has taken us to in the entire trip are just not picturesque but an experience in itself to withhold for life. Our group had such a wonderful time …. All because of Sunny …this guy is an absolute gem. Even his spontaneous selection of additional spots to visit when we had time in a day turned into being the highlights for the day. Will totally recommend Solo Yolo any day.

I recently went on a trip to Unseen Kashmir, and I have to say, the experience was amazing thanks to team SoloYolo and also our trip captain Shyamli. The team was just great at organizing everything the captain made sure every single person was doing well throughout the trip, keeping us updated on all the details of the itinerary and ensuring everything ran smoothly. Her calm and approachable nature made the trip even more enjoyable. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Thank you Soloyolo for everything and kudos to the effort.

My dream place has become a reality thanks to Soloyolo, and I still miss that place. It was a fantastic experience traveling to offbeat locations and immersing ourselves in the local culture with these wonderful companions. This adventure wouldn't have been possible without the Soloyolo team and our captain, Jagat. Since most of the travelers were solo, we had a lot of fun ❤️❤️

I did Kutch with SoloYolo and Oh My God It's a trip I won't forget for a lifetime. The moon gazing in white desert, the sunrise, sunsets, jeep safari, watching the beautiful flamingos fly, and some secret spots which I won't tell here. Thankyou so much Sunny bhai and your team for making this so special. It's hard to find a travel company that does off beat travel with affordable prices and yet somehow give the best experiences. Let's travel again soon.
