Luxury East India Holidays

Formerly known as Calcutta, this bustling metropolitan was the former capital of the British Indian Empire. Now the capital of the state of West Bengal, KOLKATA is the place that gave birth to Indian nationalism and a collective consciousness of modern India.

Visiting East India and never making a rendezvous with the Brahmaputra is like going to Egypt and never meeting the Nile, or going to Brazil and never rendezvousing with the Amazon.

We highly recommend a luxury cruise through the Brahmaputra in ASSAM. The landscape of pristine rivers, towering mountains and thick forests is a...
