Take a train to Chandigarh or Kiratpur Sahib, then a bus or taxi for the rest of the way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Flight:<\/strong> The nearest airport is Kullu (Bhuntar), about 50 km from Manali. There are no direct flights from Hindon, so fly from Delhi, or fly to Chandigarh and go by road.

A 5-day round trip for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tempotravellerindelhi.in\/urbania-12-seater-van\">Urbania 12 Seater costs<\/a><\/strong>  about \u20b955,000\u201365,000 all-inclusive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_is_better_for_Manali_Tempo_Traveller_or_Urbania\"><\/span>Which is better for Manali: Tempo Traveller or Urbania?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Urbania is smoother and more comfortable on hill roads, so it suits families with elderly members or young kids. A standard tempo traveller is cheaper and comes in larger sizes, which makes it better for big or budget-conscious groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_tempo_traveller_size_should_I_book\"><\/span>Which tempo traveller size should I book?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Book one or two seats more than your group size so there&#8217;s room for luggage and stretching out. A 12-seater suits 8\u201310 people, and a 17-seater suits 12\u201315 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_best_Manali_tour_packages_from_Ghaziabad\"><\/span>What are the best Manali tour packages from Ghaziabad?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 4 Nights \/ 5 Days Manali with Kasol package is the most popular, because it covers Solang Valley, Atal Tunnel, Sissu, Manikaran and Kasol at a comfortable pace. For a shorter break, 3 Nights \/ 4 Days is enough for Manali alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_we_book_a_one-way_tempo_traveller_from_Ghaziabad_to_Manali\"><\/span>Can we book a one-way tempo traveller from Ghaziabad to Manali?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, but it&#8217;s usually charged like a round trip, because the vehicle has to come back empty. If you&#8217;re staying a week or more, ask the operator about a one-way drop with a return pickup later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_the_tempo_traveller_go_to_Rohtang_Pass\"><\/span>Does the tempo traveller go to Rohtang Pass?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outside tourist vehicles need a permit for Rohtang, and only a limited number are issued each day. Many groups use their tempo traveller for Atal Tunnel and Sissu, then hire a local taxi for Rohtang. Ask your operator in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_far_is_Manali_from_Ghaziabad_and_how_long_does_the_drive_take\"><\/span>How far is Manali from Ghaziabad, and how long does the drive take?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Manali is about 540\u2013565 km from Ghaziabad. By tempo traveller, the drive takes 12 to 13 hours via NH-44, Kiratpur Sahib, Mandi and Kullu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_it_safe_to_travel_to_Manali_by_tempo_traveller_in_winter_or_monsoon\"><\/span>Is it safe to travel to Manali by tempo traveller in winter or monsoon?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, with an experienced hill driver and some planning. In monsoon, check for landslide alerts and avoid night driving in the hills. In winter, the road to Manali usually stays open, but places like Solang, Atal Tunnel and Sissu can close after heavy snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_word\"><\/span>Final word<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a group leaving from Ghaziabad, nothing beats a <strong>tempo traveller or Force Urbania<\/strong> for a Manali trip. You get doorstep pickup, one vehicle for the whole holiday, an experienced hill driver, and a cost that gets cheaper with every extra person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before you book, compare all-inclusive quotes, confirm the driver knows the Manali route, and lock in your vehicle early for May\u2013June and the Christmas\u2013New Year rush. Pick the <strong>Manali tour package from Ghaziabad<\/strong> that fits your group, pack your woollens, and enjoy the ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy travels, and enjoy the Himalayas!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manali is the dream group trip for almost every family, college gang and office team in Ghaziabad.
