Hi!!! Ruth_Traveldiaries Glad to know that you wanted to travel towards North-east India.
As for questions, the weather in Meghalaya is mesmerizing always. If you are travelling in November you will not regret. For transportation, buses are also available but I would suggest you to hire a cab for your convenient. Why? because buses are notoriously slow and will be full-packed. Also you will be travelling there for sight-seeing. So its better take a cab or for short distance you can walk. The best way to know and experience a place and its culture is to walk in and around as far as you legs carry you;). Cab fare starts from Rs.2000 onwards. As per this pandemic concern, there might be restrictions in some places. But there are many place to explore in Meghalaya. Hope this help your queries.
Looks like they are not taking booking. Most smaller properties are yet to start. I could book a beach hut at Talpona beach and another at Arambol for Dec.
