A Manali group trip from Delhi is the cheapest way to see the mountains with company: you share the Volvo, hotel rooms and a fixed plan with other travellers.

01How the trip works

  • Night 1: board the Volvo in Delhi in the evening; about 12–14 hours to Manali.
  • Day 2: check in, Hadimba temple, Mall Road, Old Manali cafés.
  • Day 3: Solang Valley — snow in winter, paragliding and ropeway in other months.
  • Day 4: Kasol or Kullu, or Sissu via the Atal Tunnel when the road is open.
  • Day 5: Volvo back to Delhi overnight.

02What group trips include

Usually Volvo seats, shared rooms, breakfasts and dinners, a local cab for sightseeing and a trip leader. Activities like paragliding and snow gear are paid on the spot.

03Tips for solo travellers

  • Ask for same-gender room sharing.
  • Keep a copy of your ID — hotels and checkposts ask for it.
  • Carry cash for Solang activities; network can be weak.
