Shimla Kullu Manali Chandigarh Tour From Mumbai 7 Days & 6 Nights

This 6N/7D Shimla Kullu Manali Chandigarh tour package from Mumbai lands you in Chandigarh and runs the classic Himachal loop from there: two nights in Shimla, the drive over Kullu into Manali, Solang Valley, and a day in Chandigarh before you fly home. At Rs 19,499 per person it covers your hotels, breakfast and dinner, and every transfer and sightseeing drive in a private cab. That undercuts most fixed ex-Mumbai group tours, which start closer to Rs 45,000, and unlike them you can move a day, add a night, or swap a hotel.

It suits families, couples and small groups equally. You get the Mall Road evenings and Kufri day-trip in Shimla, Hadimba and the Old Manali side of the valley, and a Solang Valley morning for skiing, paragliding or zorbing depending on the season. Chandigarh is not just a transit stop here: the last full day is yours for the Rock Garden, Sukhna Lake and Rose Garden before departure.

At a Glance

How to Reach Shimla and Manali From Mumbai

Mumbai is a fly-in origin for this trip. There is no direct road or single train to the hills, so the practical route is a flight to Chandigarh, which is the gateway to the whole circuit. The package covers everything from Chandigarh onward; the Mumbai-Chandigarh airfare is booked separately, and our team can add it to your quote if you want one price.

By air is what almost everyone chooses. Direct Mumbai (BOM) to Chandigarh (IXC) flights take about 2 hours 20 minutes, with several departures a day. Our representative meets you at Chandigarh airport and you drive straight up to Shimla the same afternoon. If your plan leans Manali-first, you can instead fly to Bhuntar (Kullu-Manali airport), about 50 km from Manali, though Chandigarh has far more flight choice and better fares.

By train works if you have the time and prefer rail. There is no quick Mumbai-Chandigarh train, so most rail travellers take an overnight train from Mumbai to Delhi (roughly 16 hours) and continue to Chandigarh or Kalka by a connecting train or road transfer. Budget the better part of two days each way, which is why the flight wins for a 7-day trip.

Day-Wise Itinerary (6N/7D)

Day 1 - Arrive Chandigarh, transfer to Shimla

Begin your journey at Chandigarh. Our representative meets you at the airport or station and you set off by private cab to Shimla, reaching by evening. Check in, freshen up, then head out to Mall Road and the Ridge for an unhurried first evening: colonial-era buildings, Christ Church lit up at dusk, and the town's best browsing and street snacks. Dinner and overnight in Shimla.

Day 2 - Shimla sightseeing

After breakfast, spend the day around Shimla. Drive out to Kufri for horse riding and the views, and the Himalayan Nature Park with its native birds and animals. Back in town, take in the panorama from Scandal Point, climb up to the Jakhoo Temple with its giant Hanuman statue and resident langurs, and work through the Ridge, Lakkar Bazaar and the Lower and Tibetan markets. Return for dinner and an overnight stay in Shimla.

Day 3 - Shimla to Manali via Kullu

Check out after breakfast and take the scenic drive to Manali. The road follows the Beas River through the Kullu Valley, green terraces and pine slopes the whole way, with photo stops as you go. Many travellers break the drive for a river view or a short stop at a Kullu temple before pulling into Manali by evening. Check in, and the night is free to settle in around Old Manali or the Mall. Overnight in Manali.

Day 4 - Manali sightseeing and leisure

A full day in and around Manali. Visit the cedar-wood Hadimba Devi Temple, the Manu Temple in Old Manali, and the hot springs and stone shrine at Vashisht just across the river. There is time to wander Old Manali's cafes and the Mall, or simply slow down for a leisure afternoon. Dinner and overnight in Manali.

Day 5 - Solang Valley, then drive to Chandigarh

After breakfast, head up to Solang Valley, the adventure hub between Solang village and Beas Kund. In winter it is skiing and snow play; in summer it is paragliding, zorbing, the ropeway and mountain biking. If the season and permits allow, you can add the run up to the Atal Tunnel and across to Sissu on the Lahaul side (this stretch depends on weather and a separate permit). By afternoon, check out and drive down to Chandigarh for the overnight stay.

Day 6 - Chandigarh sightseeing

Breakfast, then a relaxed day in Chandigarh, India's planned city. See Nek Chand's Rock Garden built from recycled art, boat or stroll at Sukhna Lake, and walk the terraces of the Rose Garden. There is time for Sector 17 for shopping and a last dinner before you wind down. Overnight in Chandigarh.

Day 7 - Departure

After breakfast and check-out, you are transferred to Chandigarh airport for your flight back to Mumbai (or to the station if you are travelling by rail). If your flight is later in the day, there is usually time for a final stop at a local market or a cafe before the transfer. Your Shimla Kullu Manali Chandigarh tour from Mumbai ends here, with the drop handled by our team.

Inclusions and Exclusions

Best Time to Visit

March to June is the easy choice: Shimla and Manali sit around 15-30 degrees C, ideal for sightseeing, Solang activities and the drives. December to February is for snow lovers, with fresh powder around Kufri and Solang, though some higher roads (the Atal Tunnel and Rohtang side) can close on heavy-snow days. July to September brings the monsoon and the occasional landslide delay on hill roads, so keep the plan flexible. For the full month-by-month picture, see our Himachal travel guide.

Cancellation and Booking Policy

Booking is simple: confirm your dates and pay an advance to lock the package, with the balance due before departure. Because this is a customisable trip, you can change a hotel, add a night or shift the itinerary before travel, and our team re-quotes on the spot.

Cancellations are accepted, with charges that step up the closer you cancel to your travel date. Cancel well in advance and you keep most of what you paid; cancel in the last few days and hotel and transport commitments mean a larger charge applies. Airfare, once ticketed, follows the airline's own rules. Share your exact dates and our Himachal desk will confirm the current slab and the free-cancellation window in writing before you pay.
