Shillong — 2 Nights / 3 Days Tour
Meghalaya · Hill capital — Shillong was the capital of undivided Assam and is now Meghalaya's, and it has a character quite unlike anywhere else in India — Khasi matrilineal society, a serious live-music culture that gave it the nickname the rock capital of India, and church spires rather than temple towers on the skyline. The town itself is congested and the traffic is worse than the size suggests; the pleasure is in the surroundings, particularly Umiam Lake on the way up from Guwahati and the Mawphlang sacred forest, where nothing may be removed, not even a leaf. Two nights, usually paired with Cherrapunji two hours south. This 2-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.

Questions
Package FAQs
Shillong or Cherrapunji as a base?
Shillong has the hotels and restaurants; Cherrapunji has the root bridges and waterfalls. Two nights in Shillong with a day trip south works, though staying a night at Cherrapunji lets you start the Nongriat trek at first light.
How do I reach Shillong?
Fly to Guwahati and drive roughly three hours. Shillong airport has very limited service, so most itineraries route through Guwahati.
Is this a fixed itinerary or can it be customised?
It is a flexible framework built around Shillong's key sights. The exact day-by-day plan, specific hotels and final inclusions are tailored to your dates, pace and party at the quotation stage — add nights, nearby destinations or activities as you wish.
How is the price calculated?
On enquiry. We price your exact party, dates, hotel category and inclusions rather than publish an average that changes the moment you ask. A consultant replies within one working day; no payment is required for a quote.
How do we get there and get around?
Shillong is served by Shillong (SHL), 30 km; Guwahati (GAU), 100 km (rail: Guwahati, 100 km). All local transfers and sightseeing are by private air-conditioned car; flights or trains can be added to your quote.
