Local Etiquette

  • •Always ask permission before photographing people, especially in tribal areas. Some sacred sites may prohibit photography.
  • •Bargaining is common in local markets for handicrafts, clothing, and souvenirs. For fixed-price shops, it's not expected.
  • •Tipping is not mandatory but appreciated for good service in restaurants (5-10%) or for cab drivers on longer trips.

Festival Alert: Shad Suk Mynsiem (Khasi harvest festival, usually April), Wangala Festival (Garo harvest festival, usually November) - Expect higher crowds and prices.
