Detailed Itinerary
Fly to Goa to Chandigarh where you will be received by your representative and then driven to Shimla. The landscape changes as you make your way to the hills; it ceases to be flat and plains, and turns pine-clad slopes. Arrive at your hotel and enjoy the evening in Mall Road, with an array of local restaurants, small stores, and colonial views. The sunny climate and comfortable location on the hill gave the anticipation of the subsequent days.
A nutritious breakfast and some sightseeing in the city, then off to the city. Start with the Ridge which is an open promenade with sweeping mountain views as well as renowned landmarks. Visit Christ Church, complex of Gaiety Theatre, Scandal Point and Lakkar Bazaar where wooden crafts made by locals are also famous. Jakhoo Temple, which stands upon a secluded hill, follows lunch. End the day with free time in the lit up Mall Road and then back to the hotel.
Post-breakfast, leave to Kufri, a beautiful mountain resort which is a natural beauty, breathtaking scenery and adventure sports depending on the time of year. Tour of Mahasu Peak view, the scenic Kufri Fun World (at will) and the Himalayan Nature Park. You can also have short horse-rides, or soft walks in the country. In the afternoons visit Shimla again and have a rest in the hotel, or visit a local cafe to have a peaceful evening.
Begin the day on a scenic drive to Mashobra which is among the most peaceful and green places in Shimla. Mashobra is enclosed in thick forests and valleys and has apple orchards, easy walking, and peaceful picnic areas. Explore the area, capture photos and spend time without being among the major tourist groups. Back to Shimla in the afternoon and spend the remainder of the day at ease--good family outing, or even an evening of carefree couple, or an expensive treat within your hotel.
Today visit Narkanda which is a lovely high-altitude tourist spot famous with its cozy hills and views of snow in winter. Go to Hatu Peak and enjoy Himalayan views and inhale the fresher mountain air. The road itself is picturesque, and it goes through pine and oak woodland. Having visited the serene perspectives of Narkanda and also the local market, go back to Shimla in the evening and stay at the hotel.
After breakfast, head towards Solan, a charming town surrounded by forests and hills. Visit the Shoolini Mata Temple, the local monastery, or choose to explore the relaxing parks and scenic corners of this quieter Himachali town. Solan offers a slowpaced atmosphere ideal for relaxing during the final days of your trip. By late afternoon, return to Shimla for your final evening. Enjoy a comfortable dinner and prepare for departure the next day.
Check out after breakfast and drive back to Chandigarh. You may stop for tea breaks, viewpoints, or quick photography spots along the way. Upon reaching Chandigarh Airport, board your return flight to Goa, concluding your memorable Shimla tour.
