Numerous factors such as weather, road conditions, the physical ability of participants etc. may cause itinerary change. We reserve the right to change any schedule in the interest of safety, comfort and general wellbeing.
The age limit of our group departures is 16 to 42 years due to the power-packed itineraries that we provide for our travellers. We can customise trips for travellers beyond the mentioned age bracket.
Currently, there is a village dispute near Wei Sawdong in Cherrapunjee. As a result, the government has prohibited tourist visits to the waterfalls there. Instead, we will visit Lyngkshiar Waterfalls. We are in constant communication with our ground team, and as soon as Wei Sawdong becomes accessible for tourists, we will resume visits to that location.
Stay in Shnongpedeng will be in Alpine/Dome Tents with common washroom.
Additionally, since this is not a leisure trip and several of our sightseeing locations are in rural areas, we kindly request that you avoid late-night strolling around the hotel for your safety and convenience.

Meghalaya Reviews From Our Travellers

I recently had the pleasure of traveling to Meghalaya with Capture a trip, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, their professionalism and attention to detail were apparent. The itinerary was perfectly balanced, offering a mix of must-see landmarks and off-the-beaten-path gems, making sure every traveler’s interests were met. Our Captain, Abyudhay Sharma was exceptional—knowledgeable, engaging, and always ready to answer questions. The group size was ideal, fostering a friendly and comfortable atmosphere while allowing for personalized experiences. The accommodations were top-notch, and the transportation was always punctual and comfortable. Special mention to the driver Pallav bhai. What stood out most to me was how the group genuinely focused on making the trip enjoyable for everyone. Whether it was organizing local experiences or providing helpful travel tips, it was clear they wanted us to make the most of every moment. If you’re looking for a hassle-free, fun, and enriching travel experience, I highly recommend Capture a trip. They made my trip truly memorable, and I can’t wait to join them on another adventure.

I took a 7-day trip to Meghalaya and Kaziranga with Capture A Trip from December 25 to December 31, 2024. The accommodations were excellent, with cozy rooms and beautiful views that truly captured the essence of Meghalaya. The food was delicious, varied, and always satisfying! The local flavors added a special touch to the trip. Our trip captain, Masoom Raza, was the heart and soul of our trip! His energy, enthusiasm, and constant support made every moment memorable. From organizing everything seamlessly to ensuring we were all comfortable, he was nothing short of exceptional. Masoom’s encouragement and motivation truly pushed us beyond our limits. The double decker root bridge trek, cliff jump in Dawki and swim in the serene Blue lagoon—experiences I never imagined I’d conquer—became possible thanks to his inspiring words and guidance. His positive vibe kept the group lively and connected throughout the journey. It was a privilege to travel under his leadership, and I’m already looking forward to future adventures with Capture A Trip. Thanks, Masoom, for creating memories that will last a lifetime! Here’s to more thrilling experiences together! 🫶🏻
