The brief
MEGHALAYA — SOLO EXPLORER
5 Nights / 6 Days · Solo-friendly group batch
Living root bridges that take fifteen years to grow, water at Dawki so clear the boats look like they're floating on air, and the cleanest village in Asia. The double-decker root bridge day is 3,500 steps down and 3,500 back up, and it is worth every one of them.
Batch capped at 14, with a local guide who grew up in these villages.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Solo travellers who want somewhere that doesn't look like anywhere else in India. Moderate fitness helps on the root-bridge day.
