Last week I had book package of kullu-manali for parents and it was really worth visiting that place. They had wonderful time there. All the arrangements done by Shoes on Loose were up to mark. Ms. Neelam, Mr.Ankush and Ms.Shraddha were very polite and helped me customize plan as per our needs. The driver was also very helpful and co-operative. The only small glitch was, the hotel room in The White Resort hotel did not have a fan. Other than that everything went well. Would definetly recommend TT to friends and family.

Hi, I have taken Spiti tour for 13 days from Chandigarh, Shimla, Sarahan, Sangla, Chitkul, Kalpa, Nako, tabo, Kaza, Chandratal, Manali & Chandigarh. Mr Bunty was out coordinator, and I must say that he is the one who was taking care of us as family. In Tabo hotel we forgot our DSLR camera but hotel owner & Mr Bunty made sure that I get my camera on Kaza and made necessary arrangement. Our Driver was Mr Soni, who was very good in skills and helped us capturing our family moment.......In short this is the best trip we ever had and thanks to Tanish tour t...
