Two nights in a Nongriat homestay where the food was better than anything we ate in Shillong. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.

Getting to the living root bridge before anybody else was on the path. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
The walk down to the double-decker root bridge, which our captain paced so we stopped where we wanted rather than where the schedule said. Not perfect — there were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
The drive out to Dawki, where we were on the water by eight and had it almost to ourselves. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
Camping above the valley on the second night, which none of us expected to be the high point. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
Riding out of Ziro with a support van that turned up exactly where it said it would. Against that, the hotel on the first night was a clear step below the rest of the trip, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.

How little of it was scheduled — we were asked each morning what we felt like. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
The mechanic who rebuilt a derailleur by torchlight and had us moving by seven. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
