Exactly what we'd hoped for
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.

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.
Getting to the living root bridge before anybody else was on the path. 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 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.
The naturalist, who could name everything and never made us feel slow for asking. 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. 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 hotel on the first night was a clear step below the rest of the trip. We raised it during the trip and nothing changed, and the reply afterwards didn't really engage with what we'd said.
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.

Our permits being sorted before we landed, so we rode on day one instead of queuing. 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.
How little of it was scheduled — we were asked each morning what we felt like. Not perfect — messages before the trip took a day or two to get answered — but it didn't take much away from the rest.
