At the end of the project, volunteers will join a four-day excursion to Kaziranga National Park. This park is located on the borders of the Brahmaputra River in northern India, and it is home to the world’s largest population of Great One-horned Rhinoceroses. Other animals in the park include water buffalo, elephants, Indian tigers, leopards, sloth bears, sambar deer, hoolock gibbons, Assam macaques, and the endangered Ganges river dolphin. Volunteers will have a morning and evening jeep safari to the eastern and western regions of the park. They will also have an early morning elephant ride.

After Kaziranga, volunteers will continue on to Guwahati, the capital of the Indian state of Assam. There, you will take in local sights including a silk emporium and a bazaar with shopping opportunities. Later that day, you will visit the Kalakshetra, a cultural institution with a museum, library, open-air theaters, and places of worship. The following morning, volunteers will depart from the Guwahati airport.
