Here Manas Comes Alive
At the edge of one of Assam's most extraordinary wildernesses, Smiling Tusker Elephant Camp offers a slower, more meaningful way to experience Manas. Wake to birdsong, wander through tea gardens, meet elephants, explore the forest and return to evenings shaped by fire, food and stories.
This is more than a stay in Assam. It is an invitation to get closer to the wild - and to the people, culture and landscapes that make Manas unforgettable.


and Make Every Stay an Experience to Remember
Enjoy peaceful surroundings, warm hospitality and experiences that bring you closer to nature.
Local flavours, familiar comforts, unhurried meals.
After a day outdoors, settle in for thoughtfully prepared food that feels warm and familiar. Enjoy Assamese favourites alongside continental choices, made fresh and served with genuine camp hospitality.
There is more to Manas than meets the eye.
Manas is not only a national park; it is a living landscape shaped by forests, grasslands, rivers and communities. Spend a little time here and its character begins to reveal itself in unexpected ways.
