Jeep Safari at Kaziranga National park is one of the best ways to explore and unfold the vigour and splendour of this sanctuary. With the sheer forest, tall elephant grass, and shallow pools, it is the best place to experience raw nature. Kaziranga has been a source of inspiration for several books, documentaries and songs; it is altogether a different world on its own. The serenity and unique biodiversity that Kaziranga has in terms of its flora and fauna makes it perfectly suited for wildlife safaris that include Elephant safaris and Jeep safaris.

Majuli Island

Majuli Island is situated on the banks of Brahmaputra river, Assam and is recognised by Guinness book of world records as world’s largest river island.
Originally the island was a long narrow part of land called Majuli that had the Brahmaputra flowing in the north and the Burhi dihing flowing in the south. Due to heavy flood in 17th century, the Brahmaputra split into two branches- one flowing along the original channel and the other flowing along the Burhi dihing channel and the majuli island was formed. The agriculture, fishing, dairying, pottery, handloom, and boat making are the important economic activities of the people of Majuli.
The Island is open for tourism for the entire year and its connected only through Ferries or Small ships. The Nearest Airport is Jorhat which is only 15 km from here.
Also it is the first island district of the country.
