River Rafting in North East India

The mighty rivers descending from the eastern Himalaya offer some of India's most thrilling — and scenic — whitewater rafting.

Arunachal's rivers

The Siang (upper Brahmaputra) and Kameng rivers in Arunachal deliver serious rapids through dramatic gorges, best for experienced rafters.

Gentler options

The Teesta near Sikkim and stretches of the Brahmaputra offer milder, family-friendly floats amid beautiful scenery.

  • Siang & Kameng (Arunachal) — challenging
  • Teesta (near Sikkim) — moderate
  • Best: Oct–April
  • Guided, safety-first operations

We arrange rafting with certified operators — request net rates.
