Ravindran's 7 days trip to North East

First of all a big thank you to Travel Triangle for arranging a very good trip of Northeast covering most of the desired places and also giving enough time to enjoy the lovely locations. We really enjoyed the trip and cherish memories of our visit. The most enjoyed portions of our trip are Balaji Temple in Guwahati, Kazhiranga National Park, Chirapunji, Mawlynnlong Living Root Bridge, Dawki Border with Bangladesh, Boat ride in Umngot river supposed to be crystal clear water but due to previous night rain was totally murky (unlucky!!), Sacred Forest, Umiam Lake, Darshan at Maa Khamakya temple, Assam State Zoo. However not all locations could be enjoyed fully as described in your offer for reasons below : 1. Umiyam Lake had closed while going from Guwahati but during return could see the lake but no boat ride was possible due to extreme windy conditions. 2. Umngot river water was totally murky due to overnight rain. 3. Northiang Monolith was totally missed as driver forgot to take us there. The hotels chosen were pretty decent but lacked any room view. We were stumped when we reached Shillong when the Hotel Treetops Residency informed that there was no booking for us and he was being kind enough to accommodate us for that night (2nd day). For the subsequent booking on 5th and 6th Night (while returning) he advised us to look for alternate accommodation which as per the manager was already informed to Indeman Travels but no action taken till we flagged this issue. Created anxious moments till alternate arrangement was made, which could very well have been avoided. In fact the hotel room at EEE CEE Hotel did not have any window and only walls on all sides. The cab driver initially was very helpful but as the tour proceeded developed different attitude. In fact we were dropped at the airport at 12 o’ clock itself for our flight at 17.05 hrs and left in a hurry after unloading the luggage on the road in departure end. Didn’t even wait for a final bye bye from us. Kazhiranga national Park, Living Root Bridge, Kamakhya temple

Kiran's 6 days trip to North East

Good trip arrangements by Indemen travels. Overall would recommend booking a package with them. We booked a 5 day 6 night meghalaya package. Places we visited were great and driver was helpful and ensured that he always stopped in vegetarian restaurant for lunch. Sanjeev was the coordinator from Indemen. Would suggest a better, quicker response. Felt we were chasing them after payment while before payment they were chasing us. At shillong, hotel provided for day 2 was not worth it. Sanjeev got it changed for day 5.

Renju's 7 days trip to North East

Our travel agent has coordinated our 8day Meghalaya trip well. Our accomodation in Shillong and Mawlynnong was really good but the stay in Cherrapunji was not upto the mark. Itinerary was prepared and customised as per our requirement. The cab arranged was very good as well. To summarise my family had a great time in Meghalaya.

Kavita's 6 days trip to North East

We travelled to Guwahati, Shillong and Cherrapunji , the trip was quite comfortable. We travelled for 5 days driver was quite experienced and hostile he knows all the good places to visit and good restaurants for food, we tried all kind of food and overall, it was an awesome experience. The hotel (SJ International) in Guwahati was quite small, the extra bed taken all the space, other category of rooms was not available, even food was not good. The hotel in Shillong (Tree Top) was quite spacious but complimentary breakfast was average. Stay and food at Cherrapunji was good.

Akshay's 6 days trip to North East

Hello, All in all, I would say we had a very wonderful experience in Meghalaya, and a safe one too. This will be a detailed review of my 6D 5N stay in Meghalaya from 25 Feb to 1 Mar. 2024. The driver Hatim Ali picked us up at the airport around 11.30 AM when we landed. We started off to Kazhiranga, and the first day was entirely travel, as Kazhiranga was quite far away and there are highway speed checks and animal crossings, so can't really reach Kazhiranga anytime before 6 hrs of travel. Also, sun sets very early, around 5.30pm, so all plans need to be made before that. The stay in Kazhiranga, Dhanshree Resort was excellent, with amazing food. Our only regret was that we stayed here for just one night. Next day. we did the Jeep safari. at Rs.4000 per Jeep. It was a 3 hour safari through the Central range. and it was worth it. But that's that. There is nothing else to see or do in Kazhiranga. We started off to Shillong right after the Safari. We reached Shillong around 6pm on the 2nd day. The place we stayed here was Treetops residency. We had to climb up the stairs, to reach the entrance. the receptionist greeted us well, and showed us to our rooms. The room was big and cozy, and had heaters. This is much needed, as temperatures drop to 6-7 degrees. The only downside to this day stays was the food. We ordered food from the hotel, and we were disappointed. Food is not good here. On the third day, we travelled to Meghalaya around 8am in the morning. It was just 57kms, so we reached early. Now this was the best day of the entire trip. First we visited the Arwan caves, which was amazing. Then, we went to Noh-kalikai falls. Despite water levels being low, the location and the view was mesmerizing. Then we visited the Masmui caves. The limestone cave was even better, and we spent some good time here. We went to see the Seven sister falls, but water levels were too low. Also, Thangkharang park was closed, when we visited at 4pm, so our driver took us to Eco park, which was good. There is a view point, and lot of area to walk around, in the setting sun, and worth to spend some time here. We wrapped the day, and checked in at our stay, La Kupar. The cottage is good, with neat and cozy rooms. Having wooden walls, its much warmer and fresh. the food was served to our room, and was average. Nothing spectacular. Next day, we visited the Garden of Caves. Now this is a spot we cannot miss in Sohra. A total of 11 amazing spots, including caves, view points, waterfalls, this Garden is truly a feast for our eyes. But beware, we do have to walk a lot, and it takes around 2 hours to complete. Then we made our way to Maylynnong, and trekked a little to the Living root bridge. This is a natural phenomena, and worth the visit. After this, we visited the cleanest city in Asia. We wrapped the day, with stay at Riwar cottage. This being a very remote place, cannot expect much luxury here. The cottage was small but clean. The food in the night was tasty, and the staff were good and responsive. Next day, we went to Dawki in the morning, for the famous Umngot river boat ride. This was the highlight of the trip. On the borders of Bangladesh and Meghalaya, this place is truly a sight for sore eyes. Beware, ask your boat paddler not the veer towards to the Bangladesh border. There is a huge cloud always, and they pass dirty remarks. My wife faced a situation, while we were on the boat. As we did not understand their language, there was nothing much we can do. We finished the ride, and travelled back towards Shillong, through Jowai. The car ride was good, and we visited Krang Shuri and PheePhee falls on the way. This would have been post rainy season, water levels were low. We visited the Laitlum canyons on the way back. This is a view point, with deep gorges. Amazing time here, with photo shoots. Then we travelled towards Shillong. As we reached early. we visited Ward's lake. Amazing place. Also, we went to the famous Police bazaar, the flee market of Shillong. Then, we stayed at TreeTops Residency. Again, disappointing food. Ordering via Zomato was the only option at 09:30 PM for us. On the last day, we got up late, and made our way towards Guwahati airport. Our driver showed us a temple on the way, and we had lunch, and were dropped at the airport. I would like to really appreciate our driver Hatim Ali, he was truly a gentleman, and made sure our stay and journey was safe and pleasant.

Tushit's 3 days trip to North East

We had a very bad experience at the start of our trip. The cab driver told us that he was not aware that we were going to Shillong and he cannot go to Shillong. We had wait in the middle of our trip and call our travel agent multiple times to get it sorted. Finally the driver agreed to proceed with the trip. However our travel agent was very polite and tried his best to make our trip comfortable. Apart from the 1st day, there were no issues with the rest of our trip

Pallavi's 3 days trip to North East

My driver was amazing. Very kind and considerate. About my stays I loved staying at La Kuper inn, Sohra, Cherrapunjee. The hospitality and guest friendliness won my heart but La Castle in Shillong wasn’t a good experience. They didn’t provide proper duvet or blanket for the driver neither did they arrange hot water for him in spite of repeated calls they just kept on saying ‘we are arranging’ but failed to do so. Also, the driver room wasn’t covered properly my driver had to stay up whole night as the room was pretty airy and it was really cold out. Apart from that my travel was amazing.

Nayak's 5 days trip to North East

It was our first trip through Travel Triangle and we had chosen Indeman Travels' itinerary for Meghalaya. We didn't know what to expect, but we were happy with the whole trip. As we were 2 women travellers, we were concerned with the safety aspects not having travelled alone to the area before, but everything was safe and went smoothly. Our cab driver, Mr. Pranab Das was very good and took us everywhere safe and sound. Had a great experience with him! Treetops hotel in Shillong turned out to be the best amongst the 3 stays we had in Meghalaya and also the best food. In terms of cleanliness all 3 stays were very good, even when it was in a remote location. Although the amenities of the stays went down with each destination, it was understandable considering the remote locations. However, our only complaint was the food at La Kupar Inn, it was quite poor in taste. Also they did not provide any bathroom essentials such as soap/toilet paper. But otherwise it was a decent stay and the room was good. All in all, an absolutely great trip - both in terms of organisation as well as the place itself. Must visit - but be prepared to walk/hike a lot!

Andy's 6 days trip to North East

Visited Assam (Gawhati, Kaziranga) and Meghalaya (Shillong, Cheerapunji and Malwaylong). Overall experience was good. Positives - To my luck, the cab (Swift Dzire) was brand new and very humble driver - Babu. He made my trip extremely happening and i should mention that he is a guide cum excellent driver. Negatives - Rooms were not so good to the price. - Hotel Rituraj was good. Clean and tidy. - Tesco Resort was good. Had to change room for water problem, food was just ok. - Magvaris Comfort Inn Shillong was ok (same bf everyday), less staff and limited resources. - The_Roots_Guesthouse in Meghalaya - had a problem with checkin since payment was not done by travel triangle and had to deal with issues myself. Neither Pravin from Travel Triangle or Bhashkar from Indeman received my calls. Same happened to other travelers also. Hotel person was adamant since he had bad experience with travel agency. Not sure if i was told, but i paid for all parking myself. Entry ticket i agree anyway.
