From Chennai, travellers can fly to Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport in Guwahati, followed by a road transfer to Shillong. Guwahati is the nearest major airport and railway hub, while Meghalaya’s Umroi Airport, around 35 km from Shillong, handles smaller aircraft. Shillong is connected to Guwahati by road through NH-44. From flight booking to airport and sightseeing transfers, Thrillophilia’s Shillong tour package options with airport transfers can further simplify the arrival process.
Indian citizens do not need a visa to visit Shillong or Meghalaya. Foreign nationals, however, need the appropriate Indian visa and travel documents. Additional permissions may apply for specific activities or destinations, so travellers should check the latest local requirements before departure.
