Once the wedding madness is over on the 16th, we’d love to steal a smaller gang of friends and family away for one last night together before everyone scatters back home.
So on 16 February (Tuesday), after the final breakfast, we’re heading to Pobitora.
And because this is a slightly smaller plan, please do keep this page with you and don't share the link around ❤️
Where we’re going
Ap and Rish have booked all of us into Rhino & River, a wildlife retreat overlooking the Brahmaputra floodplains and countryside, just outside Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary.
Pobitora itself is special; this tiny sanctuary in Assam has the highest density of greater one-horned rhinoceroses in the world. It’s also beautiful birding country, with wetlands, grasslands and resident and migratory birds in abundance. and February is peak migratory birding season! Plus, this was Ap and Rish's first birding trip together (all birds pictures on this website were clicked by us, and most of them in Pobitora).
So yes, there will probably be rhinos and pretty birdies. And a night of no-rituals fun.
The rough plan

Leave Mayfair after breakfast and drive together to Pobitora followed by:

We'll work out the exact programme with the safaris closer to the date. This is an aprish special to say thanks for coming.

We're not taking no for answers, so we're counting you in, okay?
If you’re flying out on the 17th, tell us your flight time beforehand so we can make sure the return journey works comfortably.
