Experience the mist-kissed beauty of Meghalaya

7 Days / 6 Nights

Overview

A journey through the "Abode of Clouds" typically begins in Shillong, the "Scotland of the East," where you can explore the serene Umiam Lake, the tiered Elephant Falls, and the panoramic Laitlum Canyons, or enjoy a stroll through Ward’s Lake and the bustling Police Bazar.

Moving toward Cherrapunjee (Sohra), the landscape transforms into a dramatic display of nature's power, featuring the towering NohKaLikai Falls (India's tallest plunge waterfall), the mist-shrouded Seven Sisters Falls, and the fascinating limestone formations of Mawsmai and Arwah Caves.

For adventure seekers, a trek to the iconic Double Decker Living Root Bridge in Nongriat is essential, while those looking for tranquility can visit Mawlynnong, celebrated as Asia’s cleanest village, or take a crystal-clear boat ride on the Umngot River in Dawki near the Bangladesh border.
