The Road through the Land of the Clouds

Lots of companies run bus services through Meghalaya. However, book tickets a few days in advance if desirous of taking the AC luxury buses [recommended]. Due to sensitive situation in these places, it is strongly recommended that one avoids night bus journey. Please dress soberly and do not enter into debates on political or sectarian issues.

Shillong a Place In Cool Mist & Mellow

Guwahati is well connected with rest of India. From Guwahati, Shillong it is only three to four hours journey depending upon transport you choose. Apart from taxi, Govt. run tourist buses are available from Guwahati airport and railway station. It is better to carry food pack & water in road transport. I always advise to book hotel before you reach there for tension free journey. Dependable websites, like presently you are going through, are there to help you. Subhankar Mukherjee

In the Land of the Clouds

The best time to relish Meghalaya is at the onset of the of the monsoon when the clouds descend to kiss the pristine hills & the sun plays hide-n-seek adding a surreal setting to the landscape. The best route by train is to avail the Saraighat from Howrah which reaches Guwahati around 9.30am. A journey of 3hrs by car takes one to Shillong.
