In short
Overview
Leisure Himachal's Shimla Manali Volvo tour is a 5-night trip from Delhi: three nights in Manali and two in Shimla, travelling by overnight AC Volvo from Delhi to Manali, by deluxe bus from Manali to Shimla, and by overnight Volvo from Shimla back to Delhi. It covers Solang and Rohtang (permit permitting), Kullu–Manikaran, the Mall and Ridge in Shimla, and Kufri. From ₹19,999 per person off-season.
Himachal’s two classic hill towns, linked by the road along the Beas. Manali first for the snow and the valley, then Shimla for the old town on the ridge — with the overnight Volvo doing the long hauls while you sleep.
