§01 · What the trip is built on
Off the bus routes
01 / 04
The offbeat Meghalaya
The spots that don't have tour buses. The walks the locals do. The viewpoints without railings.
Canyoning · treks · caves
02 / 04
Adrenaline on the way through
Not the centerpiece, but a real part of the rhythm. We show up small, listen first, and try not to leave a mark.
Hosts, families, elders
03 / 04
Around the table
The trip is built around them, not around them being a backdrop. Khasi families, musicians, elders. Dinner that runs long.
Long evenings, no itinerary
04 / 04
Unhurried days
Not a sprint between sights. Mornings that begin slow, walks that take their time, evenings that run long.
§02 · Five days, loosely
A shape, not a schedule. The hours bend to the day.
May 27
Day 01
Mawphanlur
Pickup from Guwahati airport at 10 a.m. We drive out to Mawphanlur — a high Khasi village ringed by seven hills and small, still lakes. Few houses, fewer cars; the kind of evening that arrives before you notice.
May 28
Day 02
Mawlyngbna
On to Mawlyngbna in the morning. Water canyoning through cool stone, the Split Rock trek, and a long bath under a waterfall to close the day.
May 29
Day 03
Cherrapunjee
The famous waterfalls, and the caves that sit underneath them. The road there is half the trip.
May 30
Day 04
Mawryngkhang, then Shillong
Morning trek to Mawryngkhang — bamboo bridges over granite, the river running below. We settle in Shillong by night.
May 31
Day 05
Laitlum, then home
Laitlum Canyons in the morning — ridges meeting low cloud. We finish at Police Bazaar in Shillong before goodbyes.
No dot-to-dot itinerary, on purpose. That isn't how we travel.
§03 · The filter · WHO IT IS / ISN'T FOR
For
- Travellers who want to do a 20ft cliff jump (wearing life jackets ofcourse :) )
- Travellers who want to hike a little too much to get the best view of the valley.
- Travellers who carry their own garbage bag while travelling.
- Travellers who don't need wifi at the dinner table.
- Travellers who want to sit and eat with locals, hearing their tales.
Not for
- Travellers who google '5 best places to visit.'
- Travellers who need five-star.
- Travellers who think staying in your hotel suite is luxury
- Travellers for whom the checklist is the point.
- Travellers for whom an insta post justifies a trip.
