Tea and Kaziranga are probably the two most well know things from the Northeastern state of Assam. Here is a complete list of do’s and how-to’s in Kaziranga from Discover East.
When to Visit Kaziranga
The Kaziranga National Park is on the receiving end of the wrath of the mighty Brahmaputra river. Meaning that it is closed for tourists during the monsoons, that is from around June to August. Exact dates vary each year.
Pro Tip : Rhino census happens towards the end of February or he beginning of March. During this time, the tall elephant grass is cut down in few regions for better visibility. So the best time to visit is just after rhino census, that is second half to March to mid – April.
Winter season, that is December to January is also a good time to visit.
