Overview

This Meghalaya tour package from Guwahati covers the state's essential highlights at a comfortable pace. After crossing Umiam Lake to Shillong, you head south to Sohra (Cherrapunji) for two nights, giving you time for Nohkalikai Falls, Seven Sisters Falls, Mawsmai Cave and — on a dedicated day — the trek down to the famous double-decker living root bridge at Nongriat.

Next, a scenic drive to Mawlynnong, Asia's famously clean village, and the Riwai root bridge, followed by boating on the crystal-clear Umngot river at Dawki. A final morning in Shillong, with an optional sunrise at Laitlum, completes the loop back to Guwahati.
