Overview


The Meghalaya backpacking trip is a custom-tailored experience that brings together serenity, peace, and adventure—all with a festive twist this Christmas and New Year. The name Meghalaya holds great significance, meaning "land of clouds" in the Sanskrit language. This name is truly apt, as Meghalaya is the wettest place in the world and is often enveloped in clouds. Famous for various natural wonders, one of the highlights is the Limestone Caves, also known as the ‘Caves in the Abode of the Clouds,’ making it a must-visit during the holiday season.


Adventure sports are a big reason why travelers flock to Meghalaya, especially during the Christmas and New Year period. Activities like trekking, camping, mountaineering, rock climbing, and water sports add an exhilarating touch to the festivities. The combination of peace and adventure, along with the holiday spirit, makes Meghalaya a perfect destination to celebrate Christmas and New Year in India. The ideal time to visit is between October and June, which includes the festive season, ensuring that your experience is just right for the holidays. Avoid the heavy rainfall season, as foot-deep muddy waters could dampen your celebrations. Top attractions like Shillong offer a magical atmosphere during the Christmas and New Year period, with beautiful lakes, lush green mountains, pine forests, exotic orchids, and more setting the scene for a festive escape. Our special holiday itinerary covers four essential locations in Meghalaya: Shillong, Cherrapunji, Dawki, and Mawlynnong. Each place provides not only stunning natural beauty but also unique culture, cuisine, and rituals that are especially charming during the festive season.


Celebrate the holidays at destinations like Shillong, known as the rock capital, Mawlynnong, the cleanest village in Asia, Cherrapunji, the wettest place on Earth, and Dawki, famous for its crystal-clear waters. This Christmas and New Year trip covers all these and more, ensuring a fun-filled and memorable experience.


To make the celebrations even more special, our Christmas and New Year batch includes 2+2 snacks, holiday music, cake, and a cozy bonfire (weather permitting), allowing you to enjoy the festive season in style. Join us on this unforgettable Christmas and New Year adventure in Meghalaya and make holiday memories that last a lifetime!

Anurag Gupta

A trip of a lifetime❤️!! This was my first group trip and road trip to Spiti valley which was excellent. All strangers become close friends by the end of the trip and all of us feel like going on another trip with the same group. The stay was very comfortable and clean, beautiful peaceful locations with perfect mountains and sunrise view. All the sight seeing and activities like trekking, hiking were really good. Special thanks to Captain Divya❤️. She gave her best efforts in the entire journey to make it more enjoyable and memorable. We really had a good time with you. Such a kind and humble captain we had with Great responsibility. The best captain I can say. Overall I would say I would come again on another trip with Justwravel. Thankyou to the entire team specially Divya and Nishant. Thanks for lots of good memories @justwravel.

I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing. Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well. I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel. I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.

Thank you JustWravel for giving me one of my best �first group-trip� experience - All-Girls Spiti Valley trip! I was a bit nervous before the trip began, but within no time, I realised that this was the best decision I took for myself. Saurav was a really friendly and easy-going trip leader and Mani Bhai was the sweetest local guide ever, who drove us around and also developed such a lovely bond with us. Both of them took great care of the group. Felt like family! ?? Lovely stay and food arrangements - never faced an issue even once. Most memorable trip! Thankyou!
