A scenic hill-to-hill drive connecting two of Himachal’s most loved hill stations — 250 km of river valleys, pine forests and mountain views.
Travelling from Manali to Shimla means trading one mountain town for another — and the drive between them is half the fun. The 250 km journey takes 6-7 hours through the Kullu valley, Mandi, Sundernagar and the pine-covered ridges around Shimla.
Whether you are continuing to Chandigarh and Delhi from Shimla, or exploring the old hill capital itself, our one-way and round-trip cabs get you there comfortably with stops along the way.
