An elephant grass drive at last light that felt like the whole reason to come. 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.

An elephant grass drive at last light that felt like the whole reason to come. 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.
A dawn safari where we saw rhino inside twenty minutes. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
A safety briefing that treated us like adults and was still the most thorough I've had. 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.
The Siang running high enough to be properly exciting without anyone feeling out of their depth. 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.
Swimming at Rainbow Falls before the day crowd arrived. Not perfect — rain closed the Nongriat path and we lost the root bridge day entirely — 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.

A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. Not perfect — so little was fixed that some days drifted, which won't suit everyone — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
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.
There were two more people in the group than we'd been told to expect, and we were told about it far too late to plan around. Camping above the valley on the second night, which none of us expected to be the high point was genuinely good, which made the rest more frustrating.
