What a Shimla Manali Honeymoon Package Includes for Couples

This is what separates a honeymoon package from an ordinary Shimla Manali tour. Most couples want the sightseeing and stay sorted, then a few things that make the trip feel like a honeymoon rather than a group tour. Tell your trip planner which of these you want and they are built into the itinerary (many of the packages below can include them; confirm the exact inclusions per package before you pay).

• Candlelight dinner for two. A private dinner on one evening, usually the Manali night, set up on a terrace or by the hotel garden rather than the shared buffet.

• Room and flower-bed decoration. Flower petals, balloons and a "Just Married" setup in the room on arrival, arranged with the hotel.

• Welcome drink and honeymoon cake. A welcome drink at check-in and a cake on your first or last night.

• A private cab, not a shared coach. Your own car and driver for sightseeing and transfers, so the Shimla to Manali drive and the Solang trip are just the two of you. This is the single biggest comfort upgrade for a honeymoon.

• Couple photoshoot (on request). A short shoot at a spot like Solang or the Mall, added to premium packages.

Booking is per couple. When you compare the packages further down, read the inclusions column as "for two people sharing a room", which is how honeymoon pricing works here.

The 2N Shimla plus 3N Manali Honeymoon Itinerary

Ask any Himachal operator for the honeymoon route and you get this five-night split. Two nights in Shimla to slow down after the wedding, three in Manali for the snow and the drives. Here is how the days fall.

• Day 1, arrive Shimla. Drive up from Chandigarh (about 115 km, 3.5 hours) and check in. Evening walk on the Ridge and Mall Road, coffee at Scandal Point for the sunset over the valley.

• Day 2, Shimla and Kufri. Half day to Kufri for the views and the Himalayan Nature Park, back for Christ Church and Lakkar Bazaar. Naldehra and Chail make a quieter add-on if you want fewer crowds.

• Day 3, Shimla to Manali. The scenic transfer to Manali (about 250 km, 7 to 8 hours) along the Beas. Check in, easy evening at your hotel or a Mall Road cafe.

• Day 4, Solang Valley and Atal Tunnel. The big Manali day: Solang for the ropeway and snow play, then through the 9.02 km Atal Tunnel to Sissu and the Chandra river. Winter couples get snow here even when Rohtang is shut.

• Day 5, old Manali and temples. Hadimba Devi Temple in its cedar forest, Manu Temple and Vashisht with its hot springs, then the cafes and shops of old Manali. Candlelight dinner in the evening.

• Day 6, depart. Drive down to Chandigarh for your onward train or flight, or extend with Naggar Castle and the Roerich gallery on the way.

Want fewer nights? A 3N/4D trip drops Shimla and keeps Manali. Want more? A 7N/8D adds Dharamshala or Dalhousie. Every package below is customisable on nights and route.

Best Time for a Shimla Manali Honeymoon

The month you travel changes the whole trip, so pick by the honeymoon you want.

• December to February, snow honeymoon. Manali and Kufri get snow, Shimla drops to around minus 6 degrees C in the coldest weeks, and hotels run their peak honeymoon rates. Best for couples who want a white, cosy trip and do not mind the cold. Rohtang usually stays shut; the Atal Tunnel keeps Sissu reachable.

• March to June, pleasant days. Clear afternoons, blooming valleys and open adventure activities like paragliding and zorbing in Solang. The most comfortable window and the busiest, so book early.

• July to September, monsoon. Heavy rain and the odd landslide on the Shimla and Manali roads. Rates are lowest and the hills are green, but keep the plan flexible.

For a full month-by-month breakdown and temperatures, see the Himachal travel guide.

Honeymoon Budget: Cost Per Couple by Duration

Rough per-couple bands so you can size the trip before you talk to a planner. These cover stay, breakfast and dinner, sightseeing and private transfers on a 3-star base, starting from Chandigarh. Flights or train to Chandigarh are extra.

Trip length	Route	From (per couple)	Best for
2N/3D	Manali only	Rs 7,500	Short escape, long-weekend honeymoon
3N/4D	Manali, or Shimla + Manali (quick)	Rs 8,000	First trip, tight on days
4N/5D	Shimla + Manali	Rs 15,500	The comfortable middle option
5N/6D	2N Shimla + 3N Manali	Rs 18,000	The classic honeymoon split
7N/8D	Shimla + Manali + extension	Rs 23,500	Slow, add Dharamshala or Dalhousie

All bands are indicative starting prices per couple, not fixed quotes. Upgrading to 4-star stays, adding candlelight dinners and room decoration, or switching to an all-private-cab plan moves the number up.

How to Choose the Right Honeymoon Package

Four quick ways to narrow 89 packages down to your trip.

• By destination. Want only the mountain town? See Manali honeymoon packages. Prefer the colonial hill station? See Shimla honeymoon packages. Want the three-region grand circuit? See Shimla Kullu Manali honeymoon packages.

• By budget. Rs 7,500 to Rs 10,000 per couple gets a 2N to 3N Manali trip on a 2-star base; Rs 15,000 to Rs 18,000 gets the full 4N to 5N Shimla plus Manali split; above that you move to 3-star and 4-star stays with the couple add-ons built in.

• By duration. 3 nights covers Manali alone. 5 nights is the honeymoon sweet spot (2N Shimla + 3N Manali). 7 nights lets you add Dharamshala or Dalhousie without rushing.

• By season. Snow couples book December to February; pleasant-weather couples book March to June. Browse every option across the state on the Himachal honeymoon hub.

Romantic Places to Visit in Shimla and Manali

Where couples actually spend their days. The Shimla stops are walkable and slow; the Manali ones are about the drives and the snow.

Place	In	Why couples go	Best months
The Ridge and Mall Road	Shimla	Evening walk, cafes, the sunset at Scandal Point	Nov to Jan, Apr to Jun
Kufri	Shimla	Valley views and the Himalayan Nature Park	Dec to Jan for snow
Naldehra and Chail	Shimla	Quiet greens and a hilltop palace, fewer crowds	Nov to Jan
Christ Church and Jakhu Hill	Shimla	The neo-Gothic church and the highest point in Shimla (about 2,455 m) with the 108-ft Hanuman statue	Apr to May, Oct to Jan
Solang Valley	Manali	Ropeway, paragliding, snow play as a couple	Dec to Feb, Mar to May
Atal Tunnel and Sissu	Manali	9.02 km tunnel to snow at Sissu even when Rohtang is shut	Year-round
Hadimba, Manu and Vashisht	Manali	Cedar-forest temple, old-town shrine and hot springs	Mar to Jun
Naggar Castle and Roerich Gallery	Kullu	A 15th-century castle and the hillside estate of Russian painter Nicholas Roerich	Mar to Jun

Two extra stops worth the detour: Chadwick Falls near Shimla after the monsoon, and the Bhuttico shawl co-operative at Kullu, where couples pick up a hand-woven Kullu shawl as the trip souvenir.

Things to Do on Your Shimla Manali Honeymoon

• Ride the Shimla toy train. The UNESCO Kalka to Shimla narrow-gauge line, best done as a short couple ride into the hills.

• Try snow and adventure at Solang. Zorbing, paragliding and the ropeway in season; skiing and snow play in winter.

• Ice skate in Shimla. The open-air rink runs through the coldest months, one of the oldest in the country.

• Drive to Rohtang or through the Atal Tunnel. The classic high-mountain drive from Manali when the pass is open, or the tunnel to Sissu year-round.

• Cafe-hop in old Manali. Riverside cafes with Israeli, Italian and local food, an easy slow afternoon for two.

What to Pack for a Shimla Manali Honeymoon

Short list, tuned to the hills. For a full destination guide see the Himachal pages linked above.

• Warm layers and a heavy jacket for Dec to Feb; a light jacket even in summer for cool mornings and the Solang snow point.

• Comfortable walking shoes for the Ridge, Mall Road and old Manali; waterproof shoes if you travel in the monsoon.

• Sunscreen and lip balm (mountain sun is strong), basic medicines and any prescriptions, and a power bank.

• A government photo ID for each of you (needed at hotels and some permits), and cash for smaller cafes and shops.

• Verified couple reviews. Ratings and reviews from travellers who actually booked the trip, on every package card.

"For a winter honeymoon, keep Manali for the second half and cross the Atal Tunnel to Sissu for guaranteed snow. Rohtang is often closed and the tunnel side is far more reliable for couples," says our Himachal travel desk.

Prices and inclusions on this page are checked by our Himachal desk against the live booking system before every update (last updated 2026).
