Our odyssey commences in Calcutta, the fabled "City of Joy." Here, you will be immersed in a vibrant cultural milieu, a city pulsating with intellectual vigor and artistic spirit. Our exclusive private heritage walks will guide you through its labyrinthine streets, revealing a rich tapestry of colonial-era architecture, bustling markets, and timeless traditions. A visit to the magnificent Botanical Gardens will provide a tranquil escape, offering a glimpse into a world of botanical wonders and historical significance.

From Calcutta, we ascend into the verdant landscapes of Assam, arriving in Jorhat, the ancestral heartland of the mighty Ahom dynasty. This region is a testament to a powerful kingdom that ruled for centuries, leaving behind a legacy of grandeur and resilience. Here, you will be treated to an exclusive, curated visit to a tea garden, where you will witness the intricate process of cultivating and crafting some of the world's finest teas. This experience is a sensory delight, offering an intimate connection to the land and its people.

The journey then takes a truly unique turn as we venture to Majuli, the world's largest riverine island. This spiritual and ecological sanctuary is a haven for avian life, a vibrant kaleidoscope of migratory birds that flock to its shores. Majuli is also a profound center of neo-Vaishnavite culture, where you can witness the serene lifestyle of the Sattras (monastic centers) and admire their exquisite textile traditions. The island’s tranquil atmosphere and deep spirituality offer a powerful counterpoint to the more bustling parts of your journey.

Our exploration continues to the historically rich town of Shibsagar, the former capital of the Ahom kingdom. Here, you will be transported back in time as you visit ancient ruins and magnificent structures. We will pay homage at several living Shiva temples, monuments of devotion and architectural splendor that have stood the test of time, their hallowed precincts resonating with centuries of faith.

The final leg of this extraordinary expedition takes us to Guwahati, the vibrant capital of Assam. This city is not only a hub of culture and commerce but also a sacred pilgrimage site. It is the revered home of the mother goddess of power, a profound spiritual center that draws devotees from across the globe. Our time in Guwahati will offer a deep dive into the region’s spiritual and cultural heartbeat before we conclude our journey with a seamless transition back to New Delhi. This meticulously planned adventure is more than a tour; it is a passage through India's diverse soul, offering an unparalleled blend of history, nature, and spirituality.
