Affordable Meghalaya Tour Package from Chennai 

Fed up with Chennai's heat and humidity? Time to pack your bags for Meghalaya - a place so different from our busy city that you'll wonder if you've landed on another planet. This tiny northeastern state gets more rain than anywhere else in India, but don't worry, that's exactly what makes it spectacular.

Think about it - when did you last see a bridge made entirely of living tree roots? Or swim in water so clear you can count pebbles at the bottom? Meghalaya has both, plus waterfalls that'll make you forget all about Marina Beach. The locals here are warm, the food is different (in a good way), and the air is so fresh you'll actually want to take deep breaths.

Our Meghalaya Tour Packages take care of everything - flights from Chennai, decent hotels, local transport, and guides who actually know their stuff. You don't have to figure out how to get to those famous root bridges in Cherrapunji or worry about finding your way around.

By Air: Chennai to Meghalaya Flight Options

Since there are no direct flights from Chennai to Shillong, the closest airport to Meghalaya’s capital is Guwahati Airport. Here’s how you can travel:

1. Chennai to Guwahati Flight

This was my first time traveling to the North-East (Meghalaya + Kaziranga). The accommodations were excellent, with delicious food. It was particularly safe for female solo travelers .The fellow travelers were also fantastic and full of fun. Special thanks to our trip captain Anubhav. His attention to everyone's comfort and ensuring a good time was truly commendable. His wonderful playlist added an extra touch of enjoyment to the journey. To the WanderOn team, I have a couple of suggestions: 1. Consider adding some off-beat places to the itinerary. 2. Improve the Tempo Traveler as it was a long journey and there was not enough leg space. From trekking through lush greenery to encountering majestic wildlife, every moment was filled with wonder and excitement. It was a journey I'll cherish forever. And already, I find myself missing Meghalaya and the friends we made on the trip.

We went on a customised trip to Meghalaya with Wanderon. We don’t know where to begin as this trip has been one of the best decisions we made. Every single place mentioned in the itinerary was mesmerisingly beautiful. We were able to cover all places. The accommodation booked in every place was more than what we expected. Our driver Mr. Biju Das, he is a very friendly, witty person who made these 6 days of our journey joyful. He also took us to places which was not part of the itinerary like Shillong peak, wah-kaba falls etc.,and he made sure we don’t miss out on any places. He would happily say “chaliye aap logon ko meri taraf se kuch dikhata hoon”. He also took us to nice restaurants like sardarji da dhaba( near to airport) flames & flavours( near elephant falls). Lastly I would like to thank Anusha who coordinated this trip with us and made sure everything was going well and there was no hassle or issues. Special thanks to ⁨Divas Agarwal for curating this itinerary as per our needs. Thank you Wanderon for this well coordinated trip. Looking forward for many more trips with you all. 😍🥰
