Travel to Mandi

Read about the best & quickest routes to save time & money, as suggested by our travelers

Mandi does not maintain any personal airport. The closest airfield to Mandi is the Bhuntar airport which is situated in Kullu. This airport is cons

idered to be a challenging airport for airmen to land safely their planes as the only runway is situated in a valley which is environed by the peaks. Bhuntar airport is connected to Chandigarh and Delhi so passengers traveling from these two places can easily visit Mandi. Once you reach Bhuntar Airport, you can book yourself a cab, uber or any taxi and head towards Mandi. Other transports like buses and auto-rickshaws are used by many tourists to get in and out of Mandi from the Bhuntar Airport.

If you don’t prefer taking the road route then the train is the next best alternative for you. However, Mandi has no railway station of its own and

the nearest railway house is situated in Joginder Nagar which is nearly 55 km away from Mandi. Currently, there are two trains that take a halt at this station. Further planning is being done to extend the Kangra Valley Railway to Mandi and finally correlate it with a new Bilaspur-Mandi-Leh railway track.

Mandi by road is one of the most suitable options when a question like how to reach Mandi comes in mind. The roads of major cities

like Delhi, Punjab, and Haryana are all well connected to the city of Mandi. Regular HRTC buses are majorly observed on the connecting roads of Mandi and Delhi. If you adore natural hues and enchanting dusks then it is suggested you must consider going to Mandi by road. Chandigarh to Mandi distance is approximately 5 hours and Shimla to Mandi distance too isn’t much, many holidaymakers prefer taking the road route to reach Mandi as the journey between is beautiful and considered safe.

Narayana's 4 days trip to Mandi

Easy go vacation is an ideal choice and they gave best suited itinerary for the duration I preferred. Be it the booking agent Aman or drivers who accompanied, they executed the tour without any communication gap and on schedule. Snow games at Hamta pass, jakku temple visit and kufri are worth every penny

Nasi's 4 days trip to Mandi

Our family vacation from Chennai to Manali was an unforgettable experience, all thanks to Travel Vichar. They organized everything seamlessly, ensuring we had the best of everything. The luxury resort they booked for us was nothing short of amazing, offering an eye-catching view that made every morning special. Special mention to our driver, Ankush, who was incredibly friendly and professional. He took us to all the must-see spots and patiently waited for us to fully enjoy the sightseeing. His punctuality was commendable as he was on time every single day. Ankush also recommended some delightful local foods and good restaurants that added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. Overall, Travel Vichar made our vacation truly memorable, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

Shri's 7 days trip to Mandi

We had initially contacted Sandeep(who was our travel agent). We were convinced immediately once we talked to him, we asked him for Video Call to see the Shimla and that gave lot of confidence with the travel agent. His communication is so profesional, and arrangements were as promised. Clean new model Crysta, as promised mountain view stays. What's more good thing was he was super responsive no matter the time he used answer our calls and clarify things. Most importantly the affordability, they had given great deals when compared other agency for a similar experience. Thank you, 1.5BillionInches team.
