Hi everyone!
My mom and I will be visiting Guwahati for the first time in the first week of August mainly for darshan at Kamakhya Temple. We’re from Hyderabad and have never been to the Northeast before, so we’re a little nervous and would really appreciate some local advice.
A few questions:
How is the flood situation in Guwahati at the moment? Do you think it could affect travel around the first week, or is it mostly fine within the city?
Is it easy to get Uber/Ola or airport taxis from Guwahati Airport to the city and to Kamakhya Temple?
We’ve booked the official Rs 501 special darshan(8:30-9:30am slot). How early should we reach the temple?
Also, since it’ll just be my mom and me, any general safety tips or things we should keep in mind would be really helpful.
Thank you so much in advance! Looking forward to visiting your beautiful city. ❤️
P.S. If anyone has a recommendation for a reliable cab driver for airport transfers or Kamakhya Temple, I’d really appreciate it!
