Why ClearEast
You've heard this before.
This is how most travel companies work. This is where we chose not to.
Other travel companies
ClearEast Trip
Nothing registered, nothing guaranteed once your money has left your account
A registered private limited company, founded by someone who grew up in these hills
Ten or fifteen people, moving through the same route on the same clock
Four to eight people. Never more than that.
A price that changes depending on how hard you push back
One price, told once, honoured exactly as quoted
The booking comes first, the hidden charges come after
We would rather lose the booking than surprise you later
A voice reading from a script, somewhere in an office you'll never see
Someone in Bengaluru, someone on the ground where you are, both reachable when it matters
A fixed template, and a guide flown in from a city that isn't this one
Days shaped around you, guided by people who have always lived here
A hotel that looks nothing like its photos, booked off a listing site
Stays chosen through people we trust on the ground, not a star rating
A driver who's never actually done this route before
Drivers who know these roads, sourced through local partners we trust
And if something still isn't right, there's a real policy for it — see exactly what happens, not just an apology.
The trips below are built on exactly this.

From our trips
Shot by us, on the ground.
Everything here moves. Try dragging one.
An Apatani kitchen, Ziro
The wood hangs there for months, drying above the fire before it's ever burned.
Rafting below Punakha Dzong
Twenty minutes of white water, then the dzong is just there ahead of you.
Kaziranga, before breakfast
First jeep out at 5:45am. They crossed the track before the mist had lifted.
A snack in the fields, Arunachal
A farmer waved us over mid-walk, wouldn't let us leave without trying this.
Mask dance, Bhutan
Every mask means something specific. Ask and your guide will tell you what.
Amur falcons, Pangti · November
A million birds pass through this one valley, Siberia to South Africa.
Walking into the fog, Meghalaya
You lose the road ten feet ahead of you. Nobody minds.
Camp at Nameri · November
Asleep to the river, awake to hornbills. No signal, nobody looks for one.
Nongjrong, sunset · November
We climbed up not expecting much. The clouds sat below us for an hour.
