Dinner on the river with the city lights coming on — a buffet dinner and live Bihu, Sattriya and Gayan Bayan on deck.
The experience
The Brahmaputra at golden hour is one of India's great sights — a kilometre-wide river turning to fire as the sun drops behind the hills. On board, the evening unfolds around it: a live singer and DJ carry the sunset and sundown sailings, the dinner cruise stages Bihu, Sattriya and Gayan Bayan performances on deck, and the city lights rise from the water after dark.
Beyond the daily cruises
A private vessel, a decorated table for two, sunset to city lights — Guwahati's most romantic evening.
A whole vessel to yourselves — birthdays, corporate nights and parties for 20 to 150 guests, route and menu built around you.
Weddings and celebrations on a private Brahmaputra island — a venue the river reveals once a year, November to March.

“Service was fast and food was good, ambience was great during sunset. We booked the upper deck for the best view — our seats were reserved when we arrived. Live performance in the first half, music for all guests later. Definitely worth visiting.”

“A refreshing welcome drink and delicious starters, followed by a tasty buffet with a wide variety of veg and non-veg dishes. Captivating live performances — local folk dances, insights into the region's history and culture, and live music. Excellent value for money.”

“A beautiful experience — we were upgraded to the top level just before sunset, with gorgeous views on the water. Then we heard old Hindi music from the speakers and, to our surprise, it was LIVE — a singer so good we assumed it was the recording. Tourists, locals, young and old, all on board. Truly reflecting the kind nature of people in Guwahati.”
