Hey, it's pretty much raining everywhere this weekend. if you want to avoid rain at all. You can try staycation around Delhi like Manesar, Karnal, Neemrana.
Smit trek is one of the scenic experiences that you can go for if you are planning trekking in Shillong. Although if you are an experienced trekker then I would suggest go for Dawki Trek, As this Trek through the steep hills and rock and reach to the top of the hill. Umden is an ideal getaway nestled in the lush green forests with natural miracles in abundance. Embark on a trek through the tea gardens, strawberry fields, subtropical and bamboo forests for a revamping experience.
Personally, I found this three trek breathtaking and worthy otherwise there are some more options. Good Luck!!

If your budget allows, I would recommend The LaLiT Golf & Spa Resort ....had a good experience, comfortable stay with private beach....you can easily enjoy your complete day with your family....
River rafting has to be done in the morning as by afternoon, they close the entry. And paragliding is also done only till afternoon that too depending on the weather conditions. So, they cannot be done on the same day. Also, check the weather forecast before you decide which sport to take up that day. Pre planning is advisable.
* heritage walk in old streets of chennai
* Old & the only Armenian church in India
* Mahabalipuram old temples
* Marina beach - second largest beach after Bangladesh
Every location is best during December. But because its festive month in Western countries, most of the places are crowded and ultimately become costlier...
Hey, we went to Kasmir in December, and believe me, above all those rumours, its a perfect place for travelling considering that you plan it properly. I have posted a detailed itinerary in my trip if you wanna check it out. Have a great trip!
December and January could be a good period. However, please check your destination in Sikkim has snowfall or not. 25000/30000 would be sufficient for 2 excluding air-fare. (Our cost - 5 adults - 9 days - INR 75000 inclusive of hotel, local transport and breakfast)
You can visit Jibhi that is a hidden gem in the Himanchal near Shimla..
