On the 2nd day of the tour, have a scrumptious breakfast and then proceed for the day excursion to Mawlynnong. This is the cleanest village in Asia and is renowned for its breathtaking beauty. During the sightseeing tour visit Jingmaham Living Root Bridge, which is a unique attraction and was built 300 years ago. This is a single decker man made bridge in Riwai and was built across a stream by twisting the aerial roots of Rubber trees around a Betel tree trunk. The roots of the tree keep growing out and weaving the trunk. The bridge is the only means for the villagers to cross the streams to reach the other side. Later, visit Mawlynnong Village, which is renowned as ‘God's own Garden’. It was awarded as the cleanest village in Asia by Discover India. The main attraction of the village is the Khasi tribe. This is a famous tribe and is well ahead of the patriarchal notions. You can interact with locals and learn about their culture. There are a plethora of waterfalls and you can visit there also to spend some time amidst the soothing environs.

In the afternoon, return back to Dawki and visit Umngot River. This is one of the most remarkable tourist attractions in Meghalaya. The crystal clear water and breathtaking views will leave you enthralled. From here, you can also get a glimpse of the Bangladesh border. Enjoy boating at the Umngot River. The water of the river is so clear that it seems like the boats floating on the crystal glass surface.

Return to the hotel after the sightseeing tour. Savor the scrumptious meal and have a sound sleep in your bed.

This is the last day of the Dawki tour. Wake up to a beautiful day and have a hearty meal. Post breakfast, pack your bags and check out from the hotel. Head towards Guwahati and you will have an assisted transfer to the airport, bus stand, or railway station for your onward journey.
