Eight days from Delhi's monuments to Manali's snow, Shimla's ridges and a heritage toy train
View Day-by-DayPrices are as they were when this itinerary was finalised (in November 2026). We price your own trip live, to your dates.
Rohtang Pass and Atal Tunnel can close in poor weather, so the Manali days are built with flexible options (Rohtang, Sissu, Solang or the Parvati Valley). Keep the two Manali sightseeing days interchangeable.
The Delhi-to-Manali leg is a long overnight drive, and Manali to Shimla is a scenic 6 to 8 hour highway journey. Plan light activity on arrival days.
The Shivalik Express from Shimla to Kalka departs around 5:30pm; book seats ahead as this heritage narrow-gauge service is popular and fills up in season.
Private cars with a guide in Delhi and Chandigarh, all private inter-city transfers, and daily breakfast at the Manali, Shimla and Chandigarh hotels. Monument tickets, tips and personal expenses are extra.
November brings early-season snow at higher points like Rohtang, Kufri and Solang, though full snow cover deepens later in winter. Pack warm layers and sturdy footwear.
