International tours, done right, are less about ticking destinations off a list and more about collecting versions of yourself you didn't know existed. At Eventours Travels, we have spent years turning Northeast India's wanderlust into itineraries that read like good novels — unhurried, well-paced, and hard to put down. This isn't a generic list of flights and hotels; it's a curated shortlist of six countries — Japan, Thailand, Sri Lanka, the Maldives, Bhutan and Myanmar — where we believe international tours genuinely earn their name.

Japan is where bullet trains run to the second and vending machines sell everything except good advice — which is exactly why our international tours here come with a local fixer, not just a driver. Between Tokyo’s neon sprawl and Kyoto’s temple hush, the itinerary shifts gears the way the country itself does. Indian travellers researching a Japan tour package from India usually ask two things: is it expensive, and is it worth it. Our answer, after years of running these journeys, is a version of yes that includes a well-timed cherry blossom season and zero regrets.
Thailand remains one of the most-searched international tour packages from India, and not by luck — Bangkok’s street-food chaos and Phuket’s postcard beaches exist eight hours apart by road and eight minutes apart in mood. Our itineraries here are built for travellers who want both extremes without the whiplash: temple mornings, market afternoons, beach evenings. It’s proof that one country can hold an entire holiday’s worth of contradictions and still make sense by dinner.
Sri Lanka has a habit of exceeding expectations that were already fairly high — colonial forts, misty tea estates, leopard sightings and beaches, often within the same week. For a country this compact, it packs an unreasonable amount of scenery, which is exactly why it shows up so often on our international tours from Guwahati and the rest of Northeast India. The drive between Kandy’s hills and Galle’s coastline rewards travellers who let the journey become part of the destination.
The Maldives is, technically, one of the simplest international tours to plan and one of the hardest to leave — an overwater villa has a way of rearranging a person’s priorities within the first tide. Beyond its honeymoon reputation, it’s quietly excellent for diving, for silence, for the specific luxury of a horizon with nothing on it. Every Eventours Maldives itinerary is built around that stillness, not a checklist of resort amenities.
A Line Worth Remembering
As one sunburnt but thoroughly content guest put it from a hammock: “I came for the overwater villa and stayed because I forgot how to use the stairs.”
Bhutan measures success in Gross National Happiness instead of GDP, and after a week of cliffside monasteries and impossibly clean air, the metric starts to make uncomfortable sense. It remains one of the more distinctive international tours on this list — Indian travellers cross the border with just a passport or voter ID, no visa paperwork required, making it one of the easiest entries for one of the hardest countries to forget. Paro’s dzongs and the Tiger’s Nest hike reward exactly the kind of traveller who reads the instructions and then does the opposite.
Myanmar is the quiet outlier on this list — fewer crowds, more gold-leafed stupas, and a stillness that makes Bagan feel like it’s being discovered rather than visited. It isn’t the easiest of our international tours to plan, and that’s rather the point; the reward is a landscape mostly untouched by the group-tour circuit. Balloon rides over a thousand temples at sunrise remain, without much competition, one of the most quietly spectacular mornings a traveller can buy.
A Short Story: The Monk and the Camera
At a monastery near Mandalay, a young monk gestured for a traveller’s camera, turned it around, and took her photograph instead of the other way round. He handed it back with a grin and not a word of English, having made his point anyway: sometimes the best souvenir is being seen, not just seeing.
Fast Facts for the Fastidious Traveller
Indian nationals need only a valid passport or voter ID and an entry permit, along with a modest daily Sustainable Development Fee that goes toward conservation — figures we confirm before every trip, since these are periodically revised. Spring and autumn remain the clearest windows for the Tiger's Nest hike.
A Short Story: The Tuk-Tuk Diplomat
One of our travellers, mid-negotiation over a tuk-tuk fare in Bangkok, ran out of Thai, English, and patience at roughly the same moment. The driver simply laughed, wrote a number on his palm, and drove them to dinner anyway — fare settled somewhere between two cultures and one shared joke. She still calls it her favourite business meeting.
Kyoto, and the Quiet Art of Getting Gloriously Lost
A guest once told us she had planned exactly forty minutes for Kyoto's Fushimi Inari shrine, spreadsheet and all. Four hours later, she was still walking the vermillion gates uphill, phone forgotten, laughing at how badly her own itinerary had underestimated her curiosity. She called it the best scheduling failure of her life; we call it Tuesday.
Whatever the destination, our international tours from Guwahati and across Northeast India follow the same unfussy approach — honest pricing, real research, and itineraries that respect a traveller's time as much as their travel bucket list
From Kyoto’s cherry blossoms to Bagan’s balloons, from Maldivian silence to Bhutanese cliffside monasteries, Eventours Travels designs international tour packages built around one simple belief — a good trip should feel less like a schedule and more like a story worth repeating. Get in touch, and let’s write the next chapter of yours.
