From the mountains to the Golden Temple — a comfortable 400 km drive through Punjab’s heartland with time for the Wagah border ceremony.
The Manali to Amritsar route carries you from the Himalayan foothills onto the flat, fast highways of Punjab — 400 km in 9-10 hours via Mandi, Hamirpur and Jalandhar. It is one of the smoothest long drives out of Manali.
Amritsar is home to the Golden Temple, the Wagah border ceremony and some of the best food in India. We provide one-way drops, round trips, and multi-day plans that include sightseeing once you arrive.
