Worth every rupee
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.

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.
The drive out to Dawki, where we were on the water by eight and had it almost to ourselves. 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.
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.

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.
A dawn safari where we saw rhino inside twenty minutes. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — 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. 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.
