'Fixed departures' are assured departures that will start on the given date as per the given itinerary.
Arrive in Guwahati and proceed to the luxury resort. On the way we will visit Kamakhya Devi Temple on the Nilachal Hills which is one of the most powerful shrines of Tantric Hinduism where a part of Shakti resides since before time. People have reported strange vibrations and energy from the temple premises. After encountering the divine feminine energy of the Hindu mother, we take a turn towards Meghalaya - the abode of the clouds, scattered by the greens of the hills all around. We take a stop at Nongpoh, famous for its pines, covered by the blues of the sky. From Umling, we continue up to lake Umiam - which is a beautiful spot for a stopover. Though it is an artificial lake created by constructing a dam, the colors where Lake Umiam meets the sky are out of the world. We can also go kayaking, water scooting, or boating in the Umiam lake. Either way, keep clicking pictures, and after being lost for words, return to the resort. We will be served authentic Assamese cuisine, which primarily consists of scrumptious dishes.
Activities: Visit Kamakhya temple, Bonfire by the lake
Accommodation: Resort Robin’s Nest or similar
Meals: Dinner
This is one of the most physically intensive days as well as an experience that we might never forget. We start after an early breakfast and drive to Cherrapunjee - which is amongst the ‘places in the world that receives the maximum rainfall.’ The road winds through the East Khasi Hills where you can see an abundance of greenery all around - dense pine, fern, and oak forests full of colorful orchids. The route is full of natural wonders - dramatic gorges and ravines, waterfalls, limestone caves, etc. Today we head out for an exciting adventure, in the natural yet wonderful world of caves, by exploring a cave called Krem Mawmluh. The total length of the cave passages is nearly 5 km. This is a remarkable excursion that will stay in your memories forever. It will be a physically tough journey as there are various types of waist-deep pools, a few meters of belly crawl, and a few meters of uphill climbs. Here you will reach the mouth of the cave after trekking for about 45 minutes from the road head. You have to change into your caving gear - a wetsuit, caving suit, helmet, and headlamps. An expert will guide you to walk, crawl, squeeze, and wade through the water into various cave passages till you finish your incredible experience and are ready to head back.

The trip party and the leader will decide if the party decides to continue to the Rainbow Falls. Swimming in natural pools will be as refreshing as anything. A picnic out in the open will also take away the monotony of served food inside the resort.

On this day, we start on one of the most adventurous excursions. So, we start with a nice, warm breakfast. Our vehicle will take us to the Kaziranga National Park and then turn north towards Dhanekhowa. We will cross the Brahmaputra near Tezpur and continue our journey with a short cruise on the Brahmaputra. The main aim is to spot fresh-water dolphins that abound in this region. Afterwards, we will continue on our main trail towards the Kaziranga National Park - a UNESCO World Heritage site. Once we arrive at the destination, we can go for a short walk to explore the villages nearby.
Activities: Dolphin Watching/Village walk

This day will be spent in exploring the Kaziranga National Park - a UNESCO World Heritage Site and home to a variety of flora and fauna, the most important being the one-horned rhinoceros. Kaziranga National Park is home to two-thirds of the world’s population of the total number of one-horned rhinoceros, so getting a chance to spot one will be thrilling. Apart from this, the National Park had the highest density of Himalayan Tigers and was declared a Tiger reserve in the census of 2006. But most certainly, you will be spotting herds of elephants, wild water buffaloes, and swamp deer. The cameras will not stop going click-click as there is a huge number of wild animals that this single jeep safari promises, which you won’t be able to see otherwise. If you are not done yet, soak in the beauty of nature on the outskirts of the National Park. The National Park has several belts - some of which are dense forests, while others are hilly forested regions with a majority of grasslands. If you are comfortable riding cycles, then you can cycle through the outskirts, the tea plantations, and even the Mishing village.
Note: There are 5 forest belts in Kaziranga, namely Agoratoli (eastern range) which is primarily dense forest, Kohora (central range) grasslands and home to the majority of the rhinos, Bagori (western range) has mixed grasslands and forest, and the offbeat Burapahar range which has a hilly forested terrain.

You will start the day with some steamy, delicious breakfast that keeps you full for long periods. After breakfast, we will drive to a boutique heritage bungalow in the Jorhat district of Assam. The highlight of the day is to visit the Tea Research Association where they are conducting cutting-edge experiments to help the tea-growers. We get a chance to interact with the tea pluckers along with some of the scientists of this facility. Following this, we will visit the Hoollongapar Gibbon sanctuary which is inhabited by a special race of apes - the Hoolock Gibbons, which are only found in India. You can walk below the canopies of the trees that the forest is full of. The sanctuary is rich in biodiversity, and there is ample chance to meet a flight of birds or spot beautiful flora. As said, even if you don’t spot any wildlife, the ambiance of the sanctuary is itself very peaceful.
Activities: Visit tea plantation, Hiking in the jungle, Gibbon Sanctuary
Accommodation: Puroni Bheti Bungalow or similar
Meals: Breakfast and Dinner
Today is another remarkable day that you should mark in your diaries. We visit the famous Majuli island - the second largest riverine island in the world, which is inhabited as well. However, this excursion totally depends on the weather and the river conditions, as Brahmaputra is known to be quite unpleasant at times. You will reach Majuli island crossing the Brahmaputra in a scenic ferry ride.
The Majuli island has been known to be a hotbed of age-old Assamese culture and if things go pleasant, we might get a taste of it. You can spend the day visiting monasteries on the island and interact with monks who live a peaceful life learning from the old Assamese xatriya arts, culture, dance, music, drama, and philosophy. You will be served ethnic Assamese Mishing dishes in an old village house where the hosts are highly hospitable and you can learn a lot about the island, the river, their lives, the recipes of their ethnic dishes, and livelihood, from them. Majuli is a bird watcher's paradise. After lunch, you can try spotting some of the hundreds of species of rare and endangered birds that inhabit the island. You can spend the evening visiting nearby small villages and interacting with the locals. You can try tribal food and rice beer - something that is a specialty for the tourists who visit Majuli.

Are you ready to live your adventure…….to take the plunge?” We were gearing up for the gruelling climb to the summit of a 20,000+ ft peak in the Himalayas and this question kept reverberating in my mind as we commenced our hike at midnight. It was the full moon and night of a lunar eclipse, as we crossed the glacier and started the steep ascent towards the summit ridge, I was panting and my mind was getting blurred ....”can you do it after so many years?” On the ridge the body had given up, it was only the mind and we kept chugging up and ahead, roped up and in unison. On the summit we took the plunge and Reccy was born.
We were all young adventurers in college - doing mountaineering, hiking, rock climbing, skydiving, scuba diving, paragliding, skiing - and then got busy with our professions….. with pharma research, in the Air Force, designing and erecting steel plants, developing software, in investment banking and private equity….and then we came back together to indulge in our passion again. But planning an adventure trip can be arduous, we struggled with these questions everytime we wanted to go out of our comfort zones again.
Hence our mission is to make it easier to search, compare, plan and book the best adventures worldwide…...so that we get inspired to Cross the Line.

Whole year is good for visit North East. It attracts a large number of tourists from all over the world throughout the years. However, every place has that one best season or time when it can be seen in its full glory. The best time to visit the northeastern states of India too varies. While some would like the monsoons in northeast India, some would like it in the dry season and so on.
Is something not as per your expectation after your trip has started?
