Nearly perfect
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 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.
The Guwahati leg took five hours in traffic and ate most of a day, and we were told about it far too late to plan around. The mechanic who rebuilt a derailleur by torchlight and had us moving by seven was genuinely good, which made the rest more frustrating.
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.

A village lunch that wasn't on any itinerary and was the thing we still talk about. 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.

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.
Our permits being sorted before we landed, so we rode on day one instead of queuing. Not perfect — a permit check held us up for half a day and nobody had warned us it was likely — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
