River Alone

Overview

River Alone is a private evening experience created for people who want to slow down rather than follow another busy sightseeing itinerary.

The experience begins with a short boat through a quieter river area near the Sonakhali. We then anchor at a suitable and permitted location, where the boat becomes your private space for the evening.

Enjoy tea, snacks, sunset, a beautifully presented Bengali dinner and time to simply sit, talk, photograph and enjoy the river after dark.

There is no sightseeing checklist and no rush. Just your people, the river and a few peaceful hours together.
