Why You Will Love This

Walk into the Wild. Dance beneath the Pines.

Start your journey among the peaceful corridors of Itanagar’s Gompa, before travelling to Ziro’s emerald valley for one of India’s most vibrant and distinct music festivals. Devote unhurried mornings learning to capture the landscape and festival energy with a professional Salori Mentor, and display your newfound talent during the Ziro festival’s electric evenings. 

Spend your evenings under open skies, and discover the Apatani way of life through bamboo homes, local food, rice and millet wine, and their remarkable paddy-cum-fish cultivation. You return with more than just a festival badge: six days of music, culture, creativity and genuine connection in a valley known for living lightly on the land.

Day-By-Day Itinerary

Begin your journey amidst peaceful monasteries, mountain air, and the warm hospitality of Itanagar. Slow down, settle in, and prepare for the adventure that awaits in Ziro.

  • Airport Arrival & WelcomeYour Salori journey begins with a warm welcome as you arrive in Itanagar. Meet your fellow travellers and settle into the relaxed pace of the days ahead.
  • Visit to the Buddhist GompaAfter our Salori Curator welcomes you, move on to Gompa, Itanagar's Buddhist temple, for a leisurely stroll through its grounds as the setting sun paints the sky pink and purple. With juice and shake stalls, momo shops and souvenir stores just outside Gompa’s walls, you can eat and shop to your heart’s content.
  • Hotel Check-in & Welcome DinnerMove to your homestay, checking in for an early dinner
  • Your first photography session(Included)Our expert Salori Mentor walks you through the fundamentals you'll build on all week: understanding light and ISO levels, crisp daylight shots, shutter speed, angles, composition, framing and how their settings translate from an SLR or DSLR, to a mobile phone. By the end of Day 1, you’ll know how to capture the Gompa against the sunset, freeze a dancer mid-jump at the festival, blur a flowing stream or trail the lights of a night market at will.
