Why travel with Breeziah
Assam is our home state. Kaziranga safaris sell out in winter, Majuli depends on a river ferry, and the drive times are longer than the map suggests. We book the safari slots, time the ferry and keep the days realistic.
Safari slots booked
Jeep safaris in Kaziranga's Central or Western range booked ahead for your dates, with the forest-department fees included.
Guwahati team
We're based in Guwahati, so pickups, changes and problems are handled by people in the state, not a call centre.
One planner
A ferry delayed at Nimati Ghat or a safari zone closed after rain? We re-plan the day on WhatsApp.

When to go
The Assam year
November – February
BestKaziranga is open and the grass is short, so animals are easy to see. Dry, mild days of 20–25°C, cool nights. Peak season, so book safaris early.
March – April
GoodWarmer days and fresh grass after the park's controlled burning, good for sightings. Bihu celebrations in mid-April.
October
MixedThe end of the monsoon. Kaziranga reopens in stages, usually October to November; Majuli is green and quiet.
May – September
AvoidMonsoon. Kaziranga closes to visitors, the Brahmaputra floods and Majuli ferries are often disrupted. Guwahati and Kamakhya are still possible.

Before you go
Permits, getting there and what to know
No permit needed
Assam has no inner line permit for Indian or foreign travellers. Kaziranga safaris need a forest-department ticket per person and per vehicle, which we book and include. Add Arunachal or Nagaland and you'll need an ILP; we arrange those too.
Getting there
- By air
- Fly into Guwahati (GAU), with direct flights from most Indian metros. For Majuli and upper Assam, Jorhat (JRH) is closer and has flights from Kolkata and Delhi.
- By train
- Guwahati is the main station, with trains from across India. For Kaziranga, Furkating and Jakhalabandha are nearer; for Majuli, Jorhat Town or Mariani.
Know before you go
- Kaziranga is closed in the monsoon (roughly May to October), and safari zones can open late after heavy rain.
- Book jeep safaris early for December to February, especially around Christmas and New Year.
- The Majuli ferry runs in daylight only and can be suspended in high water; we keep a buffer.
- Wear muted colours on safari and keep your voice down; the jeeps stay on marked tracks.
- Majuli's satras are active monasteries: dress modestly and remove shoes where asked.
- Drive times in Assam are long on flat roads; we plan one long drive per day at most.
Questions
Assam travel questions
Anything else, ask us on WhatsApp. A person answers, usually within minutes.
How many days are enough for Assam?
Three days covers Kaziranga from Guwahati. Five days adds Majuli and Jorhat's tea country. Seven to ten days lets you combine Assam with Meghalaya or Arunachal.
When is Kaziranga National Park open?
Kaziranga opens to visitors after the monsoon, usually in October or November, and closes in late April or May. Exact dates are set by the forest department each year.
How much does an Assam tour package cost?
Our Assam packages start at about ₹6,000 per adult for a two-day Guwahati and Kamakhya trip, about ₹11,000 for a Kaziranga weekend, and ₹20,000 for five days with Majuli, on twin sharing. The current price of every package is in the table above.
Do I need a permit to visit Assam?
No. Assam has no inner line permit. You only need tickets for the Kaziranga safaris, which we book for you.
How do I reach Majuli?
By road to Nimati Ghat near Jorhat, then a ferry across the Brahmaputra of about an hour. We arrange the car, ferry tickets and the stay on the island.
Can I combine Assam with Meghalaya?
Yes. Shillong is three hours from Guwahati, and our Meghalaya with Kaziranga and Shillong & Kaziranga packages combine the two in six or seven days.
Is Assam safe for tourists?
Yes. Guwahati, Kaziranga, Jorhat and Majuli are all well-travelled. We drive in daylight and stay in places we know.
