Brahmaputra River Cruise: Rhinos & More

Days 1-2  Calcutta  
Upon arrival transfer to your hotel. The next morning set off on a half day tour of this vibrant city.      

Day 3  Calcutta to Guwahati      
Fly to Guwahati and board your cruise. Set sail towards your first stop at Sualkuchi. This bustling little town is the centre of Assamese silk production, and you’ll see the process in action at a silk weaving workshop.       

Days 4-9  Brahmaputra River Cruise  
Spend the next few days exploring this diverse region on excursions to visit unique temples, riverside villages and a tea garden, with plenty of time to relax on deck, watching life unfold on the riverbanks. Enjoy a day trip to Nameri National Park, where you’ll raft down the Jia-Bhoreli River, keeping your eyes peeled for great hornbills and wild elephants.    

For many, a highlight will be jeep safaris in Kaziranga National Park, home to two thirds of the world’s remaining population of one-horned rhinos, as well as tigers, deer, buffalos, elephants and a rich variety of birdlife.  

Days 10-11 Silghat to Calcutta  
After a relaxed breakfast, bid farewell to your fellow passengers, then transfer to Guwahati and take a flight to Calcutta for a final night in the city.
