Day 1 — Guwahati to Shillong
Arrive through Umiam and use the evening to settle in. Avoid committing to a long sightseeing list after a flight or train journey.
7 DAY ROUTE
Meghalaya 7 Day Itinerary
Seven days supports a broader road trip with fewer rushed transfers and enough flexibility for weather, walking ability and current conditions.
Day 2 — Shillong and Khasi Hills
Explore selected city, viewpoint and cultural stops in a logical loop. Keep traffic and opening hours in mind.
Day 3 — Shillong to Sohra
Move to Sohra and combine waterfalls, caves and viewpoints according to the season. Overnight nearby to reduce backtracking.
Day 4 — Sohra or Nongriat
Choose a trekking-focused day or a gentler sightseeing plan. Travellers with limited mobility should avoid adding steep paths merely to fill the schedule.
Day 5 — Mawlynnong to Dawki
Travel toward the southern Khasi Hills, checking river clarity and weather before prioritising Dawki or Shnongpdeng activities.
Day 6 — Jaintia Hills
Use a dedicated day for Krang Suri, Wei Sawdong alternatives where appropriate, or another Jowai-side route. Confirm access locally because waterfall conditions can change.
Day 7 — Return to Guwahati
Keep the final transfer realistic and leave a generous departure buffer. Adjust the previous night when the flight or train timing is early.
