Book Your Meghalaya Tour

October – November is the sweet spot — lush post-monsoon green, waterfalls still powerful, perfect trekking weather (12–20°C), and all roads in excellent condition. First-time visitors should plan for this window.

December – February brings crisp, cold days (3–15°C) and spectacular foggy mornings — a paradise for photographers. Dawki river is at its most transparent in winter.

June – September (monsoon) is dramatic — waterfalls thunder at full power — but roads can get challenging and some treks close. Best for experienced adventurers only.

We recommend a minimum of 6 nights / 7 days for a complete Meghalaya experience — covering Shillong, Cherrapunji, Nongriat, Dawki, Mawlynnong, and Mawsynram comfortably.

A 3–4 day Express tour is possible for Shillong and Cherrapunji only. For the Meghalaya + Assam Grand Explorer circuit, plan 9–10 days. Rushed itineraries miss the magic — we always recommend building in breathing room.

Yes — Meghalaya is consistently rated among India's safest states for tourists. The Khasi community is matrilineal — women hold significant social standing — and is extremely respectful to female visitors. Solo women travellers regularly report feeling completely comfortable here.

Our local guides and 24×7 support add an extra layer of assurance throughout your Meghalaya tour. We've safely hosted hundreds of solo women travellers.

Meghalaya has a unique food culture. Khasi specialities include Jadoh (pork rice), Dohneiiong (pork with black sesame), Pumaloi (steamed rice), and Tungrymbai (fermented soybean). Shillong also has excellent cafés, bakeries, and multi-cuisine restaurants.

Our packages include breakfast daily and 3 dinners. All dietary requirements — vegetarian, Jain, gluten-free — are catered for with advance notice. Simply mention it when booking.

Fly from Delhi (DEL) to Guwahati Airport (GAU) — the most connected hub (~2 hours, IndiGo / Air India / SpiceJet operate this route frequently). From Guwahati, it's a scenic 3-hour road transfer to Shillong.

Shillong Airport (SHL) has limited direct flights from a few cities. Guwahati is always the better choice. Return airfare typically costs ₹5,000–₹12,000 depending on how far in advance you book. Our packages are land-only — we handle all transfers from Guwahati airport.

Indian citizens do not need any special permit for Meghalaya. However, you will need a valid government-issued photo ID (Aadhaar, Passport, or Driver's Licence) for certain checkpoints — especially near Dawki at the Bangladesh border.

Foreign nationals require an Inner Line Permit (ILP) for some restricted areas, which Amigos Alliance assists in obtaining as part of our package arrangements. The process is straightforward and we handle all paperwork.

BSNL works most reliably across Meghalaya, including remote areas like Nongriat and Mawsynram. Airtel and Jio have good 4G coverage in Shillong and Cherrapunji. In jungle areas and caves, there is little to no signal.

We recommend downloading offline maps (Google Maps / Maps.me) before heading out. The signal blackout in the jungle is — honestly — part of the experience. Your guide always knows the way.

The trek involves approximately 3,000 stone steps down (and the same back up) through steep subtropical jungle — a total of 7–8 km round trip taking 4–5 hours. Moderate fitness is sufficient; no technical skills required.

Essentials: sturdy closed-toe trekking shoes (mandatory), 2 litres of water, energy snacks, and a towel for the natural pool. Start early (before 8 AM) to avoid heat. The return climb is the hardest part — pace yourself. Totally worth every step.

Yes — the Umngot river at Dawki is genuinely that transparent. Every photo you've seen is real — no editing needed. Boats appear to float on air above the visible riverbed.

Best experienced between October and March when water levels are moderate. In monsoon (June–September) the river turns slightly murky due to heavy upstream rainfall, so October–February gives the most crystal-clear boat ride experience. We include an early-morning slot in our packages for the best light.
