Frequently Asked Questions
Is Mokokchung worth adding to a Hornbill trip?
Yes, if you want the Ao heartland rather than only Angami country. Ungma and Longkhum give you living village culture away from the festival crowds.
How many festival days does this include?
Two full days at Kisama, which covers the arena programme, every morung and the evening events.
What kind of vehicle is used?
A sedan for small groups and Innova Crysta vehicles for larger groups, exclusive to your group throughout.
