About Manali
Manali, at the head of the Kullu valley, is the base for Solang Valley, the Atal Tunnel and Rohtang Pass. It is a long hill drive, so we send experienced mountain drivers. Common drop locations include Mall Road Manali, Hadimba Temple, Solang Valley and Atal Tunnel.
Driving up to Manali
The last part of this route runs on mountain roads, so the 315 km take longer than the same distance in the plains, about 9 hrs 15 min in normal traffic.

With more than four people or heavy luggage, an SUV like the Maruti Ertiga or Innova Crysta is more comfortable on the climbs.
