Meghalaya · Abode of Clouds
A private Meghalaya tour package threads the Khasi, Jaintia and Garo hills — Shillong's colonial pine country, Cherrapunji's gorges, the double-decker living root bridge at Nongriat, Dawki's translucent Umngot river and the cleanest village in Asia at Mawlynnong.
Route Focus
Pine-forested ridges, colonial-era cottages, Khasi cafés and a strong indigenous music culture. We use boutique stays in Laitumkhrah and Polo Hills with private guiding.
Trek down into the Nongriat valley for the double-decker living root bridge, swim in turquoise pools, and stay overnight in a Khasi village home for genuine cultural depth.
Glass-clear boating on the Umngot at Dawki, the famously clean village of Mawlynnong, and the matrilineal Jaintia heartland around Jowai with its sacred groves and monoliths.
Sample Pace
Drive through pine forests via Umiam Lake; evening walk in Police Bazar.
Khasi musician's home, café trail and Don Bosco indigenous museum.
Trek to the double-decker root bridge with a village-house overnight at Nongriat.

Traveller Questions

It is a 3,500-step descent and ascent — moderate but tiring. We pace it with porters, a village-house overnight and rest swims along the way.
Yes. A classic 9–11 day journey pairs Kaziranga's wildlife with Meghalaya's gorges and root bridges via Guwahati.
