India's Most Underrated Destination — and That's Part of Its Magic
Most travellers who visit Meghalaya say the same thing: "I had no idea it would be like this."
The rivers here are so transparent that the rocks beneath look close enough to touch, even from a boat. The root bridges — grown over centuries by Khasi tribespeople — are so alive they keep expanding. And Cherrapunji, one of the wettest places on Earth, rewards you with waterfalls that cascade down cliffs so tall you have to tilt your head back to see the top.
Meghalaya isn't dramatic in the way the Himalayas are. It's quieter. More intimate. The kind of place where you find yourself pulling over on a mountain road just to stare at a valley you didn't expect.
Our tours are built for travellers who want to see it properly — at a pace that lets things sink in, with a private vehicle, someone who knows the roads, and the flexibility to linger where it matters.

Choose Your Meghalaya Experience
From a 4-day Shillong escape to a 7-day Northeast adventure with Kaziranga safari — every package includes a private vehicle and daily breakfast. All depart from Guwahati.
We've been running Northeast tours for years. Here's what that experience means for your trip.
Your vehicle. Your schedule.
Every package comes with a dedicated private vehicle — no shared cabs, no waiting around for co-passengers. If you want to stop at a viewpoint for twenty minutes, you stop. Simple.
No surprise charges on arrival
What's listed in the package is what you pay. Tolls, parking, driver allowances — all included. We'll be upfront about what's not covered (entry fees, guide charges, personal expenses) so you can budget clearly.
Local knowledge that actually helps
We know which side of the Umngot River gives you the best boat photo. We know what time Nohkalikai is quietest. We know which homestay in Cherrapunji has the view that makes the whole trip. That kind of knowledge doesn't come from a brochure.
One person handles everything
From the moment you land in Guwahati to the moment you leave, you have a single point of contact. No juggling between operators, no miscommunication about who's picking you up.
We're honest about what's offseason
Kaziranga shuts down in monsoon. Some roads in Jaintia Hills get tricky after heavy rain. We'll tell you this upfront rather than let you find out at the airport.

Ashish Mishra
"My Gujarat tour with Meet N Greet Travels was nothing short of magical. The hotel accommodation was comfortable with breathtaking views. The taxi service was efficient and allowed seamless travel between destinations. We marveled at architectural wonders like Rani ki Vav and explored the ancient ruins of Lothal. Meet N Greet Travels truly went above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience."
Mukesh Kumar
"I recently went on a Gujarat tour organized by Meet N Greet Travels and it exceeded my expectations. The hotel was conveniently located in the city and made exploring nearby attractions easy. Our cab driver was friendly and shared valuable insights about the local culture. We visited historic sites like Dwarka and Somnath. Kudos to the team for curating such a wonderful itinerary."
Arjun Pandey
"An incredible experience with Meet N Greet Travels. My Gujarat tour was delightful from start to finish. The hotel had cozy accommodations and great food. The cab service was punctual and the driver was knowledgeable about the best routes and attractions. We visited places like Sabarmati Ashram and the vibrant markets of Ahmedabad. Highly recommend their services for a hassle-free trip."
Vishal Mishra
"I had an amazing time exploring Gujarat with Meet N Greet Travels. From the bustling streets of Ahmedabad to the White Rann in Kutch and Gir Forest, every destination was wonderful. The hotels were cozy and well located, including a heritage stay in Vadodara and a peaceful retreat in Saputara. The drivers were friendly and knowledgeable. A great choice for a comfortable and memorable Gujarat trip."
Akhilesh Kumar
"We had a good experience overall. The car was very comfortable and the driver was good. Le Lac Sarovar hotel was very nice. The hotel in Netarhat was slightly disappointing; staying at Jharkhand Tourism's Prabhat Vihar would be better due to its location near the sunrise point."
Vasanthi Murugesh
"Amazing experience. The tour was well managed and the staff were cooperative. Hope to plan another trip again."
Jyotirani Bhowmick
"Overall experience was very good. However the driver-cum-guide role could be improved as he did not have the itinerary and asked us about the next destination. A guide should be present or the driver should have better knowledge about the places."
Sandeep
"We had a wonderful experience with Meet N Greet Travels. The trip was beautifully planned and organized by agent Shubham. The resorts were excellent with great ambience and efficient staff. The food quality was excellent and the cab driver was punctual and supportive. However, a lot of time went into travelling by cab which created some stress."

"Had a wonderful experience with Meet and Greet Travels. Our Meghalaya trip was perfectly organized and smooth. Special thanks to Shubham, our trip coordinator, for his professionalism, prompt support and dedication to making the trip memorable. Highly recommend their services."
Shamal
"The transport, driver, booking process and explanation by Mr. Subham were good. Accommodation at Dwarka was good, but the hotels at Sasan Gir and Somnath were disappointing and could be improved."
Sanjaya Kumar Pradhan
"Had a comfortable vacation with Meet N Greet. The driver was friendly and guided us well. The team ensured we reached all places on time and did not miss any destinations in the plan. The trip could have been even better if they had suggested more options to cover the places within the available time."
Bhagyashree K
"I booked a 10-day Gujarat trip for my family and it was excellent. Subham, the coordinator, was very helpful and stayed in touch daily. The driver was also very good. Even though it was a budget trip, the hotel accommodations were good and the food quality was excellent."

Plan Your Trip
When Should You Go?
October – December
Post-monsoon Meghalaya is extraordinary. The hills are emerald green, the waterfalls are still full from the rains, and the skies have cleared up. October and November are widely considered the best months to visit for photography.
January – March
Cool, crisp, and very pleasant. This is peak season — roads are good, visibility is high, and the weather stays comfortable for walking and sightseeing. Book early if you're planning travel during this window.
April – May
The weather warms slightly but remains manageable. Waterfalls begin to thin out. A good time to visit before the heat builds in the rest of India.
June – September (Monsoon)
Meghalaya receives some of the highest rainfall on Earth during these months. Waterfalls are at their most dramatic and the landscape is impossibly lush — but road conditions can be unpredictable and some routes may be affected. Best for flexible travellers who don't mind a bit of rain.
Note: Kaziranga National Park is closed from May to mid-October due to monsoon flooding. Book our Kaziranga + Meghalaya package between October and April only.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Which airport do I fly into?
Guwahati Airport (GAU) is the nearest major airport — about 2.5 to 3 hours from Shillong by road. All our packages include pickup directly from Guwahati airport or railway station. Just share your arrival details when you book.
Is the Dawki river actually that clear?
Yes — genuinely. The Umngot River at Dawki is one of India's clearest rivers, especially between October and May. The water is transparent enough that boats appear to hover above the riverbed. It's one of those sights worth the whole trip.
Do I need any permits?
No special permits are required for Indian tourists visiting Meghalaya. Just carry a valid government-issued photo ID throughout the trip.
How many days do I need for Meghalaya?
5 to 6 days is the sweet spot to cover Shillong, Cherrapunji, Dawki, and Mawlynnong without feeling rushed. We also offer a 4-day short trip if you're tight on time, and 7-day packages if you want to combine Meghalaya with Kaziranga or Majuli Island.
What's included in the package price?
Hotel accommodation, daily breakfast, a private vehicle for all transfers and sightseeing, and all driver allowances and tolls. Entry fees, guide charges, airfare/train fare, personal expenses, and travel insurance are not included — we list these clearly so there are no surprises.
Are these tours suitable for families and senior travellers?
Yes. Our itineraries use private vehicles and comfortable accommodation throughout. Most activities involve light walking. If anyone in your group has specific mobility needs, let us know when enquiring and we'll account for it.
Is Meghalaya safe?
Meghalaya consistently ranks among India's safest states for tourists. It has a strong tourist infrastructure, friendly locals, and a peaceful environment.
Can I customise a package?
Absolutely. Reach out with your travel dates, group size, and what you'd like to see — we'll put together something that fits.
