Strong trip, honest review
Swimming at Rainbow Falls before the day crowd arrived. 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 drive out to Dawki, where we were on the water by eight and had it almost to ourselves. Against that, rain closed the Nongriat path and we lost the root bridge day entirely, and for what we paid I'd expect the whole trip to be at the level of its best day.
Getting to the living root bridge before anybody else was on the path. The whole thing was organised without ever feeling packaged, and we were never once left wondering what happened next.

How little of it was scheduled — we were asked each morning what we felt like. 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.

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