Tips

If you’d like to extend your stay, consider adding a full day for a deeper exploration of Cherrapunjee and its living root bridges, or a trek to Viktoria Peak. To shorten the trip, you can skip the distant day‑trip to Cherrapunjee and focus on the closer attractions like Umiam Lake and the city’s cultural sites, which still offer a fulfilling Shillong experience.
