Exactly what we'd hoped for
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.

How little of it was scheduled — we were asked each morning what we felt like. 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.

Our permits being sorted before we landed, so we rode on day one instead of queuing. Against that, the Guwahati leg took five hours in traffic and ate most of a day, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.
The mechanic who rebuilt a derailleur by torchlight and had us moving by seven. Against that, messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.
Swimming at Rainbow Falls before the day crowd arrived. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. 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.
A safety briefing that treated us like adults and was still the most thorough I've had. 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.
Two nights in a Nongriat homestay where the food was better than anything we ate in Shillong. Not perfect — the hotel on the first night was a clear step below the rest of the trip — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
Camping above the valley on the second night, which none of us expected to be the high point. Not perfect — the Guwahati leg took five hours in traffic and ate most of a day — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
