Overview for Nongjrong Sunrise Tour Meghalaya

There is a specific quality to standing above cloud cover at the moment the sun arrives. The cloud sits below the viewpoint as a flat white surface and the light comes from the east before the cloud moves, giving a window where the hills above the cloud line are lit and the valley below it is still dark. Nongjrong, near Shillong in the East Khasi Hills, produces this condition on clear mornings with a consistency that has made the nongjrong sunrise tour meghalaya one of the most deliberately planned experiences in Meghalaya for those who know it exists.

Bon handles the vehicle from Guwahati Airport or Railway Station with Shillong as the two-night base for the Nongjrong approach. Day 2 requires a pre-dawn departure from the hotel – the driver leaves Shillong between 3:30 and 4am to reach the viewpoint before first light. The afternoon gives Laitlum Canyon after the morning above the clouds. Day 3 moves to Cherrapunji for two nights and the full plateau circuit on Day 4. Day 5 closes at Guwahati Airport or Railway Station. Daily breakfast on CP basis throughout.
