Day by day
<p>Touch down at Guwahati's Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (or arrive by train), where your driver will be waiting to begin your Meghalaya story.</p> <p>The drive to Shillong is an introduction in itself — rolling hills, betel-nut groves, and the gradual cooling of the air as the road climbs into Meghalaya, often nicknamed the 'Scotland of the East' for its rolling green landscapes and misty climate.</p> <p>En route, pause at Umiam Lake (Barapani) — the largest man-made reservoir in Northeast India — where the still water<br /> perfectly mirrors the surrounding pine-clad hills. A short walk along the banks is the perfect way to shake off travel fatigue.</p> <p>Arrive in Shillong and check into your hotel. As evening sets in, wander through the city's lively local markets — a sensory introduction to Khasi culture, street food, and the unmistakable hill-station charm that gives Shillong its character.</p> <p>Settle in for a restful night, with the adventures of Meghalaya's most dramatic landscapes waiting just a day away.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Overnight stay: </strong>Shillong</p>
