    Donmotul is about 50 km from Guwahati, so a round trip cab takes roughly 1.5 2 hours each way. Local taxis usually run that distance and the roads are in decent shape, but it’s wise to book a driver in advance and agree on a fixed rate. For kids, the waterfall area is great for short walks and a splash in the stream, and the surrounding forest trails offer easy nature spotting. October is still warm and the monsoon rains have usually receded, making the scenery lush but the trails manageable. If you’re staying nearby, the Cygnett Inn Imperial in Tezpur is a convenient base for day trips.
