OUR STORY.

Meiieid - TRIS Travels

TRIS Travels is a venture that was inspired by my dear grandmother, whom I lovingly call ‘Mei-ieid’ - in the Khasi language, mei-ieid (loosely pronounced ‘may aid') means grandmother. The neighbourhood and her circles know her for her kindness, generosity, hospitality, hard work and resilience. She is also a very good host! She loves to prepare the absolute best traditional food for her family members and friends and even pack her speciality, ‘ja-khaw’ and ‘doh shaiñ’ - two famous Khasi traditional foods for the road - her guests would rarely leave empty-handed.

 

Mei-ieid is from a village called Mairang, located in Eastern West Khasi Hills District in Meghalaya. Mairang is also known for being the residence of the Khasi freedom fighter, U Tirot Singh. Through Mei-ieid’s hard work and persistence, she was able to construct a house and support all her children and even distant relatives to stand on their own feet. Her joy in life is to see people she loves, do well and be happy. Her contribution and support are unconditional even to the extent of sacrificing her own comfort for the good of others.

 

Who I am today is because of her - she has shaped my life in more ways than I can explain. As my source of inspiration, TRIS travels was founded with the same ethos that she embodies - generous hospitality, resilience, and originality. With the motto, “Not our way, but yours”, TRIS travels aims to offer unique, tailor-made travel packages. We believe every guest and traveller is special and different and so are their likes, needs, and wants. Our guests choose, and we aim to do our best to provide.

WHY TRAVELERS TRUST TRIS.

Bravim Kumar

It was a great experience to visit Meghalaya, all thanks to Mrs Rose for her hard work. Its because of Rose we enjoyed the place very much. We troubled her to change the hotel and cab service last moment but she manged all, we changed our paln 3 to 4 times, she helped us every time.

We were a group of 5 people(me , my wife, my parents and my 3 years old daughter).
We planned trip for 7 days and 7 nights in meghalaya including Guwahati for 1 day.
We didnt want our trip to be very hectic and busy, Mrs Rose took care of that. We want to enjoy local food(veg only) and home stay(although we cancel that after reaching there, house was more than 100 yrs old and it was heritage home. But parents were not comfortable there).

It was nice to talk with our tour guides.

Our cab driver Mr. Swapnodeep, was very nice guy. Having good knowledge of routes, didnt use Google map even a single time. My daughter loved playing with him.

Mrs Rose and Mr Swapnodeep suggested very good restaurant based on our requirements.

And at last, Meghalaya is such a good, clean and beautiful place, full of good and simple people we enjoyed our trip a lot.

My father was impressed the way Rose managed our tour, he called her at the end of the trip and thanked her.

Best wishes to TRIS travel and team
