I had an amazing time on this tour. The history of Delhi was captivating, and Shimla had a lovely, old-world feel. Manali and its surrounding areas like Rohtang Pass were scenic and calming. The hotels were all very comfortable, with great service. Our guides were very knowledgeable, and the driver made the long distances feel manageable. I would highly recommend this tour to explore India north.
