Sekrenyi Festival Tour

The Naga festivity is certainly one of its kind, and the opportunity to witness it is not to be missed. Nagaland, the land of rich and unique culture as well as lesser explored trails have so much to offer along with its unusual food habits and festivals, all of which compels to plan a trip here. One eye-catching festival that we have included in our 14N/15D tour for you is Sekrenyi. Celebrated by the Angami Tribe, it is a purification festival in which the men of the tribe sacrifice an unblemished rooster and observe its legs to foretell the future. It is indeed an unusual sight that deserves to be witnessed. However, this is not all that we offer in our tour package, our endeavour is to design the itinerary in such a way that all aspects of this unique state in India can be seen and experienced. Thus, in this tour package of ours, you get to witness important cultural places like Khonoma Village, remote villages like Khezhakeno, Thetsumi, Misolumi, Chiesezu, Chizami, Sumi and Touphema. The package also include visiting the gems of Assam in the form of Majuli, which is the largest river island in the world and the beautiful Sibsagar. Indeed this tour has the best that you can get in Nagaland and Assam.
