Landscape Photography, Astro Photography, Travel Photography and People / Culture Photography, Tribal Photography Tour North East India, Arunachal Pradesh

This tour is for people who want to see unseen India. After doing this tour, you will realize how less we know about our own country.

Arunachal Pradesh is home to many indigenous tribes. We will explore the amazing landscapes with lovely people. 

You will witness the lifestyle of the people of the different tribes of Arunachal.

There are very less places left in India which is not flocked by tourists. At one time, Ladakh was like that, but now there is nothing called hidden Ladakh or unseen Ladakh as people say.

On this tour, we really saw, that we were the only tourists. We met one foreign lady on the way one day. Except for that, we were the only ones, all the way.

You will definitely come back with an experience that you will cherish for a lifetime.

SIA Arunachal Photography Tour Reviews

As a travel and photography enthusiast always on the lookout for off-the-beaten-path adventures, I was thrilled to finally join SIA Photography's Arunachal Pradesh photo tour in 2024.


The detailed tour description on SIA Photography's website and Saurabh's informative online orientation session provided a clear roadmap for the trip, allowing me to prepare adequately. The journey itself was an adventure: from the serene Brahmaputra River ferry, a majestic waterway cutting through the lush landscape, to the winding mountain roads of Arunachal Pradesh, offering breathtaking vistas at every turn. Our expert local driver, coupled with Saurabh's meticulous planning, ensured a comfortable and inspiring travel experience. We even managed to capture some stunning shots along the way, capturing the essence of the journey.


One of the highlights of the trip was the opportunity to interact with the warm and welcoming people. Visiting remote villages, around Ziro, Daporijo and Aalo, learning about their unique cultures, and capturing their genuine smiles were truly unforgettable moments. The diversity and richness of Indian culture were on full display, from the vibrant rituals to the simple acts of hospitality.


Throughout the tour, Saurabh shared invaluable photography tips and tricks, boosting my confidence and elevating my skills. The evening photo review sessions were particularly helpful, as I could immediately apply the feedback to my work.


I'm incredibly grateful to Saurabh and SIA Photography for organizing such an amazing tour. It's not just about the stunning landscapes and cultural experiences; it's about the growth, the inspiration, and the friendships forged along the way. I can't wait to embark on another photo adventure with SIA in the future!


Dr. Prasad Thakurdesai, Pune

SIA Photography Tours provides excellent value in terms of coverage, photo opportunities and expert guidance. Each day after an action packed schedule, Saurabh does a photo review to provide feedback and critique.

You can see your shots improve over the days for composition, exposure and techniques.

The locations we visit are not the places that are under a tourist agenda, so if you are interested in seeing the the real India then choose these photo tours.
