Meghalaya Tour Packages
Ready-made, fully customisable Meghalaya itineraries covering Shillong, the Sohra waterfalls, the living root bridges and the glass-clear Umngot river at Dawki - pick one and shape it around your dates, budget and pace.

Meghalaya works best as a 5 to 6 day trip based between Shillong and Sohra (Cherrapunjee), covering the big waterfalls, the Mawsmai caves, the living root bridges - including the double-decker trek to Nongriat - and a Dawki day for the Umngot river and Mawlynnong village. October to April is the dry, clear season. Each package below is a ready-made day-by-day plan you can open in Tripmojo and customise.
Meghalaya is the wettest place on earth wearing its rain beautifully - canyons pouring waterfalls, caves running under the hills, rivers so clear the boats look like they float on air, and bridges grown from living tree roots over generations. It is the Northeast's easiest introduction, and nothing else in India looks like it.
Our Meghalaya tour packages are ready-made itineraries covering Shillong, Sohra and the Dawki circuit. Open one and customise every day to match your dates, budget and pace.
Why visit Meghalaya
Sohra - Cherrapunjee on the old maps - anchors the trip: Nohkalikai and the Seven Sisters falls dropping off the plateau, the Mawsmai caves, and viewpoints over gorges that run green all year. The living root bridges are the state's signature, and the double-decker bridge at Nongriat is the one worth earning - a 3,000-step descent and climb that most groups call the best hard morning of the trip.
The Dawki day adds the Umngot river, famously clear enough to photograph boats hovering over their shadows, and Mawlynnong, the village that made cleanliness a tourist attraction and means it. Shillong itself carries the evenings - cafes, music and the easy energy of the Northeast's most sociable hill capital.
Best time to visit Meghalaya
October to April is the season - dry days, clear river water at Dawki and safe footing on the root-bridge treks, with November to February the coolest stretch. The monsoon, June to September, is the state's defining drama and the waterfalls' biggest volume, but it is genuinely torrential around Sohra and Mawsynram, and treks, caves and river days get rearranged around it. First trip? Go dry season; save the monsoon spectacle for a return.

How many days do you need in Meghalaya
Five to six days does the classic loop well: a day and a half around Shillong, two days for Sohra's falls and caves with the Nongriat trek given its own morning, and a full day for Dawki and Mawlynnong. Add a day for the Krang Suri falls and the Jaintia hills, or simply to slow the driving down - the roads are good but winding, and the state rewards not rushing them.
Getting to Meghalaya
Guwahati is the practical gateway - a major airport about three hours' drive from Shillong, with shared taxis running the route all day. Shillong's own Umroi airport has limited flights and works when the schedules align. Within the state, one hired vehicle with a local driver is the standard: distances look short but the hill roads set their own pace, and the driver doubles as the guide to which viewpoint is clear that day.
Where to stay in Meghalaya
Split the nights. Shillong has the widest choice - from Police Bazar convenience to quieter homestays above the city - and carries the best evenings. Sohra's guesthouses and resorts put the falls and caves at your door and save backtracking; a night there is worth it for the early, crowd-free viewpoints. Homestays around Mawlynnong or near Dawki suit trips that want the villages, not just the sights. Each package can be adjusted to the mix you prefer.
The short version
Meghalaya delivers landscapes India keeps no duplicates of: root bridges, glass rivers, plunging falls and hill-town evenings, all in one compact loop. Start from a ready-made package above, then customise the days, stays and pace in Tripmojo to make the trip your own.
Before you book, check visa requirements for India on your passport.
Frequently asked questions
How many days are enough for a Meghalaya trip?
Five to six days covers Shillong, Sohra's waterfalls and caves, the Nongriat root-bridge trek and the Dawki-Mawlynnong day. Add a day for the Jaintia hills or a slower pace.
What is the best time to visit Meghalaya?
October to April - dry trails, clear water at Dawki and comfortable trekking weather. The June to September monsoon is spectacular but genuinely torrential around Sohra.
