You step off the plane in Guwahati and the air already feels different — humid, green, edged by distant hills. The first day is a slow road into Kaziranga’s floodplain, where tall tall grasses and river channels push you toward the park. Early-morning jeep safaris put you inches from the coarse hide of the one-horned rhinoceros; later drives climb into Meghalaya’s highlands where clouds sweep over canyon rims and limestone caves hold fossil traces of an older sea.
