Go before everyone finds it
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.

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.
The mechanic who rebuilt a derailleur by torchlight and had us moving by seven. 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 — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — 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. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.
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.
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.

Our permits being sorted before we landed, so we rode on day one instead of queuing. 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.
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.
Camping above the valley on the second night, which none of us expected to be the high point. 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.
