You’ll get big views of the Dhauladhar range without needing to be a serious trekker. I especially love the pacing: it’s a relaxed, “comfortable as … Read more

Dinner, but in someone’s home. This Shimla experience is interesting because it puts you at a local family table, not a restaurant counter. Expect a warm welcome, dish-by-dish explanations from your hosts (often people like Raghav and Preeti), and plenty of conversation around Himachali cooking and daily life. I especially love the way the meal … Read more

You also get local stories along the way, which makes the … Read more
