Paddle the Brahmaputra

A Journey from Mayong to Guwahati

For visitors, we offer a truly unique way to experience Assam—by paddling on the mighty Brahmaputra. Our guided day trips combine adventure with local culture: kayak or SUP along scenic stretches, visit river islands, taste authentic Assamese cuisine, and witness sunset on the water. It’s not just an activity—it’s an immersion into the river, the land, and the people.
