A tight weekend route for travellers flying into Guwahati on a Friday night and out on Monday. Day one gets you to Shillong with the Umiam Lake stop; day two is the full Sohra circuit — Mawkdok valley, Nokhalikha, Seven Sister Falls and Mawsmai Cave; day three is a relaxed morning and the transfer back.

No trekking, no long drives, and every stop is roadside — which makes it the right choice for families with small children or older parents.
