About The Trip
Switching enigmatic landscapes, natural grandeur, snaky roads and vast grassland just 65 km from Guwahati will make you question how something so astonishing can exist in a city's vicinity. Many people who live in Guwahati don’t know about the serenity of this place. It is where tourists take a backseat, and the area divulges one wonder at a time. If there were five words to describe this place, those would be Economical, Less time-taking, Serene, Close to nature and Authentic.
Get ready for this Four Days Offbeat Assam Camping Trip – 65 km from Guwahati, Assam – where you’ll get to prepare traditional Rabha Vodka, taste the freshly brewed liquor, meet the indigenous Pati Rabha tribe, see the traditional cloth weaving process, visit Chandubi Lake, sway on the beats of Bogejari Folk Dance. (Girls specifically dance on the Bogejari beats. If the group includes girls, they will get ready and dance to the beats.) We will savour local cuisine – twisted with flavours, all desi style. All dishes are traditionally cooked from local fish, country chicken, and herbs.
Note: Vegetarians, don’t worry; we have many exciting options on the platter.
We will visit six Offbeat Places in Assam: Chandubi, Tukubari, Kothal Guri, Baroigoan, Ranikhamar, Langkhar. We will go hiking, cover about 10+ km of trekking and camping through the jungle, visit Soloka Dare waterfalls, and spend some time Angling in the Kulsi River.
Apart from meeting the tribals, we will take the Chandubi Village Walk and go to Chandubi Lake for a boating session. The lake is one of the nine lakes in Assam and is located at the foot of Garo Hills, formed in the 17th century after a massive earthquake watered by the Kulsi River. Listen to all the mystical stories about how this lake was christened.
We did this Lower Assam Exploration trip as a part of our Offbeat Exploration in the Northeast; since then, it has lived in our hearts. When we posted about this on our social media, it went viral, and we received multiple queries from people who wanted to do this. And so, we present to you – the Chandubi Two-Day Trip. Read the complete itinerary of the two-day Chandubi trip and book your tickets at the earliest.
Note: Without Travel, people must take care of their entire day's travel. We will begin our day directly in Chandubi. The location will be shared with you in an email.

Later in the evening, we will prepare ourselves for a folk treat with Bogejari Dance. Women are especially invited to do this as this is performed only by women. You will be dressed and provided with basic makeup to prepare for a dancing session.

Today is the worst day of our trip. Not in terms of activities, but since this is the last day. We know while leaving, a few tears might drip, but a satisfactory feeling of a successful trip will surely take home.
After breakfast, we will go for a Waterfall Hike (only if more than 50% of the people from the group want to do it).
Later, we will drive back to Chandubi Boating Yard. Here we can have our lunch. 100s of awesome photos thereon, we will bid each other goodbye.
We will drop you back in Guwahati, where you can continue your journey.
Lingering memories and sweet pain in your body from the trek will keep you hooked on the four days Assam trip for a few days. If memories start blurring, just take out your phone and scroll through the pictures. Don't hesitate to call us and your buddies if you have anything to say. And once you know you want to do it again, we are here. Check out our other itineraries and ring us soon. It would be a pleasure to host you again. Till then, love and live life.
