Go before everyone finds it
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.

Riding out of Ziro with a support van that turned up exactly where it said it would. Against that, a permit check held us up for half a day and nobody had warned us it was likely, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.
A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
The riverside camp, where the crew cooked over a fire and nobody touched their phone. 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.
Swapping the raft for bicycles on day six, which broke up the trip perfectly. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
Two nights in a Nongriat homestay where the food was better than anything we ate in Shillong. 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. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.

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. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
