Srinivas's 6 days trip to Mandi

Entire trip was too good and locations visited or fabulous , some of the hotels does not have lift facility and family rooms are there in 3rd floor, it would be difficult for kids and elder people to come to dinning area in the n_1 floor. Travel advisors have to see the age of travelers an book the rooms otherwise advise rooms in ground floor or 1st floor. Cab driver is too good and he has recommend lot of places that can be visited only problem is that he used be always on calls sometimes it irritates people. Travel agents services are good as long as well we asked for alternative places to be visited and any discount on the charges
