CONTACT DETAILS
Since the state opened to outsiders in 2012, many foreign tourists have begun traveling overland, crossing between India and Myanmar.
Manipur serves as a transit hub for travelers between these two countries, but it also boasts fascinating tribal cultures and unexplored destinations that deserve more attention. The region remains largely untouched by tourism: this means lots of authentic experiences await adventurous travelers!
I am personally committed to promoting Manipur as an authentic tourist destination in India. As part of this effort, I am looking for volunteers to join me in exploring and showing its hidden gems.
