North East India
Meghalaya's living root bridges, Kaziranga's rhinos, Tawang's monasteries, and the untouched beauty of the Seven Sisters.
Overview
About this package
Nine days through Meghalaya and Assam built for groups of friends who like their travel a little offbeat. Trek to Cherrapunji''s living root bridges, canoe across the impossibly clear waters of Dawki, wander Shillong''s pine-scented markets, and end with a tea-garden morning and river cruise in Assam. Small-group energy, big-landscape payoff.
