Agree the final arrangements directly with us. Nothing is booked until you say so.
Can we start our Himachal trip from Delhi or Chandigarh?
Yes. The Golden Circuit and the Manali, Sissu and Kasol Escape depart from Delhi, while the Seven Day Escape and the Spiti and Kinnaur circuit begin in Chandigarh. On a customised trip we can plan around either city, or meet you once you are already in Himachal.
Can we customise an itinerary?
Absolutely. Customised holidays are at the heart of what we do. Share your dates, group size and interests, and we will shape the route, stays and pacing around you before quoting.
What does a package include?
Every quotation spells out its inclusions in writing, typically the agreed transport, accommodation, meals as agreed for the stay, and sightseeing transfers. Anything not listed is excluded, so you know exactly what you are confirming.
What accommodation and transport should we expect?
Hotel, cottage or camp categories and the vehicle type are confirmed for your dates and group size before you book. Tell us your comfort preferences and budget and we will propose suitable options.
Are these routes available all year?
No. The Himalayas are seasonal. Spiti and the high passes are generally a summer and early-autumn circuit, while Rohtang access depends on permits, road opening and local conditions. We confirm the workable route for your exact travel dates.
Do we need permits for Rohtang Pass?
Rohtang visits need permits and depend on road opening and local conditions, so we present Rohtang as a proposed excursion and confirm the workable plan, often via the Atal Tunnel towards Sissu, for your date.
How does the WhatsApp enquiry work?
Fill in the consultation form and WhatsApp opens with your trip details already written. You tap Send inside WhatsApp, and our team replies with a suitable itinerary and a personalised quotation. Nothing is booked until you confirm.
Where do we find the booking and cancellation terms?
The confirmed booking, payment and cancellation terms are shared in writing along with your quotation, before you confirm anything. Read them carefully and ask us any questions before you proceed.
