Where the journey starts and ends.
Delhi to Manali is a long journey and one where vehicle comfort and a rested driver matter. A Force Tempo Traveller gives a group reclining-style seating, proper luggage space and a driver used to the Kullu–Manali stretch.
Most groups split the drive with an overnight stop or travel overnight in the opening stretch and rest in Chandigarh or Mandi. We plan this with you when you enquire.

The road distance is about 537 km and the drive typically takes twelve hours or more, depending on traffic, weather and stops. The highway to Chandigarh is quick, but the mountain section after Mandi is slower, with tunnels, narrow stretches and occasional landslide delays in the monsoon.

Families, friends groups and corporate retreats who want a single vehicle for the whole stay. A 17 seater suits larger groups with winter luggage, and a 12 or 15 seater suits most families.
