Manali is one of India's most beloved mountain destinations and a must-do Himachal Pradesh trip. VoyagerX's AI generates a personalised Manali itinerary based on your travel style and season. For a 5-day trip: Day 1 is acclimatisation day — arrive by afternoon, rest, and explore Old Manali's cosy cafes and Vashisht village hot springs. Day 2 covers the Hidimba Devi Temple (8th century wooden temple), Manu Temple, and Mall Road shopping. Day 3 is Solang Valley — snow activities (skiing, snowboarding, zorbing), cable car, and paragliding. Day 4 is Rohtang Pass if it's open (requires an NGT permit, ₹600; open May–October). Day 5: Naggar Castle and Roerich Art Gallery before departure. Budget tip: overnight Volvo bus from Delhi (₹900–₹1,200) is the most economical way to reach Manali. Fly into Bhuntar and transfer 50km if you prefer speed.
