💡 Travel Tips
💰 Stay in local guesthouses and homestays in Haflong or village areas instead of city hotels - you'll save 40-50% on accommodation while getting authentic experiences and home-cooked meals included
📅 October to March is ideal, when weather is pleasant (15-28°C) and rainfall is minimal, making it perfect for outdoor exploration and trekking. Avoid May-September monsoon season when heavy rains make hill treks difficult and roads become treacherous.
