About This Package

Meghalaya Holiday Packages is built on our Meghalaya itinerary — Meghalaya is built around Shillong and Cherrapunji's waterfalls, but the real draw is Nongriat's living root bridges — a couple of hours' trek down (and, more strenuously, back up) a jungle valley to see rubber-tree roots trained into footbridges by the Khasi people over generations. We flag the trek's difficulty upfront so nobody signs up expecting a leisurely walk.

This version is tailored for general travellers: Shillong, Cherrapunji's waterfalls, and the living root bridges of Meghalaya.

  • Double-Decker Living Root Bridge trek, Nongriat
  • Nohkalikai Falls and Seven Sisters Falls, Cherrapunji
  • Mawsmai limestone caves
