Highlights

• Meghalaya, often called the "Abode of the Clouds," is a hidden gem in Northeast India. This stunning state is a land of rolling hills, dense forests, and countless waterfalls. It's famous for being one of the wettest places on Earth, which paints the landscape in countless shades of green. For a first-time traveler, it's practical to know that while Meghalaya has a small airport in Shillong, the most well-connected entry point is the Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport in Guwahati, Assam. From Guwahati, it's a scenic 3-4 hour drive to Shillong, which serves as the perfect base for your trip.
• Our specially designed Meghalaya trip package is more than just a tour; it’s an immersive experience that includes the awe-inspiring Krang Suri Falls and thrilling adventure activities at Dawki. Krang Suri is a true spectacle with its turquoise blue waters cascading into a serene pool, a perfect spot for swimming and photography. Adding this to the Meghalaya trip plan ensures you see a waterfall that offers both tranquility and beauty away from the more crowded spots. The adventure at Dawki provides a different kind of thrill, allowing you to get up close with nature through cliff jumping and a serene boat ride on the transparent Umngot River.
• Planning a trip, especially to a region as diverse as this, can be complicated. This is where JustWravel makes travel simple.

• Your adventure begins as you arrive in Guwahati, where the city’s hum fades as you drive toward the rolling hills of Meghalaya. The road itself is part of the experience, with a stop at Umiam Lake, a vast, serene reservoir that sets a calm tone for the journey ahead. You will then arrive in Shillong, the “Scotland of the East,” a city with its own unique charm. From there, your Meghalaya trip plan takes you to the Jaintia Hills for a rendezvous with Krang Suri Falls, a turquoise cascade that is perfect for a refreshing swim and is the highlight of the trip. You'll then head to Shnongpdeng, a peaceful riverside village where the Umngot River glows with an almost magical clarity, offering a tranquil riverside camping experience.
• From Shnongpdeng, you will venture to Cherrapunji. The journey is an adventure in itself, with a boat ride on the Umngot River, where you can feel the thrill of activities like cliff jumping and zip-lining. A visit to Mawlynnong, known as Asia's cleanest village, provides a glimpse into a unique, sustainable way of life. The drive then takes you into the misty heart of Cherrapunji, where you will face the ultimate test for wanderers: a trek to the iconic Double Decker Living Root Bridge. This is a challenging yet deeply rewarding experience, immersing you in a world of natural pools and ancient ingenuity.
• The journey continues as you make your way back to Shillong, but not before exploring Cherrapunji's other wonders. You will witness the immense power of Nohkalikai Falls, one of India's tallest plunge waterfalls, and the unique cascade of the Seven Sisters Falls. A walk through the narrow passages of Mawsmai and Arwah Caves offers a thrilling glimpse into Meghalaya's subterranean world. Finally, your adventure concludes with a drive back to Guwahati, with a final stop at the revered Kamakhya Temple, a spiritual and historical landmark. You will depart with memories of clear rivers, misty hills, and a deep appreciation for the natural wonders of Meghalaya.
• The time to start your adventure is now. This comprehensive Meghalaya trip package is designed to give you a complete experience, blending the wild with the wonderful.
