7 Days Himachal: Shimla, Manali & Solang Valley
Overview
Himachal is the hill holiday most Indian families take first, and for good reason: it is easy to reach, cool all summer, and full of things children actually enjoy. This week gives you two nights in Shimla for the Ridge and the toy-train country around it, then three at Manali with a full day up at Solang Valley for snow points, ropeway and adventure activities. Rohtang Pass can be added when the road is open and permits allow — we handle the permit application.
