Discover Kolkata, explore Assam and go in search of one-horned Rhinos in Kaziranga National Park

As the sun sets, gather on the Sun Deck for a refreshing sundowner toast to the majestic Brahmaputra, keeping an eye out for graceful Gangetic dolphins. Later, attend a brief orientation and safety session over fragrant Assam tea before indulging in a Chef’s Welcome Dinner at our signature restaurant Mungri Mungram. 

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast as the day begins with an insightful talk on Kamakhya Temple and an introduction to the Bangla Village. Step ashore to meet the warm, resilient villagers who live in harmony with the Brahmaputra—farming and fishing on fertile sandbars shaped by the river’s moods. Experience their simple, self-sufficient lifestyle and discover how the ebb and flow of the river defines their world. Return to the ship for lunch and relaxation—unwind with a book, a dip in the pool, or pamper yourself with a steam, sauna, or Ayurvedic massage. As evening falls, gather for ‘chai and pakoras’ while listening to a fascinating talk on Assam’s culture, the power of the Brahmaputra, and its famous treasures —Tea, Silk, and Jute. 

Begin your morning with Assam tea, yoga, and a relaxed breakfast, followed by an insightful talk on Kaziranga’s rich wildlife and an orientation to the day’s adventure. Cruise past Singri and Tezpur, under the graceful Kaliabhamura Bridge, and dock at Silghat. After an early lunch, embark on a jeep safari through the Panpur Range of Kaziranga National Park —home to the iconic one-horned rhino, wild buffalo, elephants, and a stunning array of birds. Return to the ship for an enchanting Bihu folk dance performance, a celebration of Assamese joy and rhythm. Spend the evening unwinding in the lounge before enjoying a leisurely dinner on board. 

Begin before dawn with an unforgettable elephant safari (optional) through the misty grasslands of Kaziranga National Park, where rhinos, deer, and wild elephants roam free. After a hearty breakfast at a local resort, continue your wildlife adventure on an open jeep safari, exploring more of this UNESCO World Heritage treasure. By midday, rejoin the MV Mahabaahu and enjoy a relaxed lunch on board as we sail towards Diphlu. Spend a peaceful afternoon unwinding on the Sun Deck, watching the tranquil beauty of the Brahmaputra River drift by. 

As dawn breaks, we sail towards Bishwanath Ghat, a charming riverside village alive with the rhythm of weavers, fishermen, and boat makers. After breakfast and a short orientation, step ashore to explore this vibrant community, where the click of looms and the grace of ancient Ahom-era temples create a timeless charm. 

Return to the ship for lunch on board, then set out on an exciting boat safari along the Eastern Range (Agoratoli) of Kaziranga National Park, spotting wildlife from a fresh river perspective. At sunset, rejoin the ship for a Chef’s cooking demonstration and a relaxed evening as the Brahmaputra glows in twilight hues. 

Begin the day with yoga, breakfast, and a relaxed morning sail along the serene Brahmaputra. Arrive at the Mishing Village, where homes rise gracefully on bamboo stilts and vibrant looms hum beneath them. Meet the skilled Mishing women weavers, renowned for their bright, intricate textiles — a perfect keepsake of Assam’s artistry.
Return to the ship for lunch and an easy afternoon sail towards Majuli, with a sunset talk introducing Sivasagar, Majuli, and your upcoming tea-estate lunch experience. 

As night falls, immerse yourself in an Assamese Theme Evening—local music, dance, and traditional attire set the stage for a feast of authentic Assamese flavours and joyful celebration. 

After an early breakfast, set out by tender boats to Majuli Island, the world’s largest inhabited river island and the heart of neo-Vaishnav culture. Witness mesmerising performances — the soulful Gayan Bayan by monks, graceful Dashavatar dances, and Mukha Bhavana, a vivid retelling of the Ramayana. 

Return to the ship for lunch on board, then sail to Neamati Ghat. Choose to explore the historic Ahom monuments of Sivasagar, or enjoy a peaceful nature walk along the river bund, spotting rural life and nesting birds. 

In the evening, gather for the Chef’s ‘Alvida Bhoj’ Farewell Dinner, celebrating the spirit of Assam as the Brahmaputra shimmers under the stars.
