Brahmaputra River

One of the largest rivers in the world runs through Tibet, China, India and Bangladesh.

Reviewed By cycleSteve - Ipoh, Malaysia

I just completed an incredible one-week trip with Assam Bengal Navigation aboard the Charaidew. Where do I begin with superlatives? The tour itinerary included visits to beautiful tea plantations, wildlife sanctuaries where we spotted several one-horned rhinos, small native villages and of course the beautiful expanse of the Brahmaputra where time seems to have stood still. The ship is one of the company's older vessels yet very comfortable, ensuite cabins, an extraordinarily friendly & helpful staff, food always freshly prepared, varied and quite tasty. Our group was never hungry! The tour included a naturalist during wildlife outings and even a tea expert to assist with tea tasting & education. The days cruising the river featured talks from the cruise director about Assam and India on a whole range of subjects, all quite interesting. On the top deck at night the sky was filled with stars - and unlike other river cruises I've taken, the ship does not move after sunset which makes for a great nights' sleep. I also enjoyed the evening we docked near Tezpur, a reasonable size city along the river. Strolling through the town center I truly had the feeling of being in a part of India few foreigners get to experience; the city was delightful, friendly faces everywhere at the markets and shops. This was my second visit to India and my first to Assam. I've come to so enjoy river cruises and highly recommend Assam Bengal Navigation. My hope is to join another of their cruises in the future along the Ganges.

Chandubi Lake

Reviewed By Mitali2015 - Guwahati, India

I love to be in Chandubi for an overnight stay in Chandubi jungle camp.Iwas there this Christmas holidays with my school friends. For staying, tents and mud cottages with thrashed roof are available amidst nature. One can enjoy sitting by the campfire, listening to the sound of jackals calls. Wake up in the morning by the sound of birds chirping or in the winter, sound of dew drops falling over thrashed roof or on the ground. Chandubi lake is around 65km away from Guwahati.It takes about 2 to 2 and half hour to reach by road from Guwahati. Chandubi is a natural lake, formed during earthquake in 1897 when forest went down to form this lake. This lake is situated in the foot hills of Garo hills.A big and beautiful lake with surrounding small, very clean, ideal tribal villages on both side of the lake.One can enjoy tracking to the village and nearby small water falls.People are predominantly of Rabha community.One can also enjoy local food and their handicraft and culture. This place is also reach in flora and fauna. Can be a ideal place for bird watchers and wildlife photographers too.
