From City Grids to Himalayan Glides: IRCTC Tourism’s Epic Journey

Have you ever dreamt of sipping hot cocoa under snowy peaks, wandering through rose gardens, and cruising through the world’s highest tunnel? Then zip up your jacket and grab your camera—IRCTC Tourism invites you on a captivating Chandigarh to Manali tour that blends city sophistication, colonial charm, and mountain magic into one unforgettable adventure.

Welcome aboard the Charming Chandigarh Tour (NLA111) — a meticulously crafted 7 Nights / 8 Days experience through the elegant lanes of Chandigarh, the heritage hills of Shimla, and the snow-kissed landscapes of Manali.

Chandigarh – India’s Urban Gem
Your adventure begins in Chandigarh, a city known for its modernist design, lush gardens, and clean, structured streets. Designed by legendary architect Le Corbusier, Chandigarh offers a refreshing mix of modernity and tranquility.

Your welcome evening includes a peaceful visit to Sukhna Lake, where golden sunsets paint the water in hues of serenity.

On Day 2, your itinerary blossoms with visits to:

  • Zakir Hussain Rose Garden – Asia’s largest rose garden with over 1,600 varieties.
  • Pinjore Garden (Yadavindra Gardens) – A stunning 17th-century Mughal-style garden with terraced lawns, fountains, and heritage charm.
  • Rock Garden – A surreal, artistic space filled with sculptures made from industrial and home waste—Chandigarh’s most iconic spot.

These Chandigarh tourist places perfectly combine natural beauty with architectural wonder.

Shimla – The Queen of the Hills
As the journey climbs into the Himalayas, Shimla welcomes you with pine-fresh air and old-world charm. A highlight of any Shimla tour package, this hill station once served as the summer capital of British India.

Day 3 takes you to Kufri, a quaint snowy retreat where you can ride horses, pose with yaks, or simply enjoy the scenic views.
Later, enjoy shopping and street food along Mall Road, lined with colonial architecture and cozy cafés.

Manali – A Snowy Symphony of Adventure
Next, get ready for the star of your Manali tour package—the stunning town of Manali. The drive itself is scenic bliss with stops at:

  • Pandoh Dam – A breathtaking spot for photos.
  • Hanogi Mata Temple – A serene roadside shrine with spectacular views.
