A quaint river port called on by colorful fishing boats and popular ferries, Nimati Ghat serves as an embarkation point for travelers and locals alike looking to sail to Majuli Island, one of the largest river islands in the world, or set out on a journey along the Brahmaputra River. From its shores, the sheer expanse of the river can truly be appreciated as it stretches toward the horizon, with just a thin strip of green on the opposing bank separating it from the sky. After breakfast, disembark your ship and head to the airport for your flight.
Arrive and check in to your hotel. Delhi’s rich history has given rise to a vibrant culinary scene. The Mughal Empire introduced kebabs and biryani, a dish of savory, well-spiced meat and rice. The city itself is responsible for the creation of chole bhature, a spicy chickpea curry served with fried bread and chutney, and murgh makhani, or butter chicken, one of India’s most famed dishes. Its vegetarian counterpart, dal makhani, is another favorite that hails from the state of Punjab. Lassi, a refreshing yogurt drink, and kulfi, a creamy cardamom ice cream, are excellent complements to any meal.
