Frequently asked questions
Pricing is provided on request. Your travel expert will prepare a customised quotation based on your dates, group size and preferences.
Shimla Calling is the classic 2-night Queen of Hills break: an overnight Volvo from Delhi, a heritage-day walking the Mall Road from Christ Church and the Ridge to Lakkar Bazaar, and a full day up at Kufri for snow or meadows and the Himalayan Wildlife Zoo before the Volvo ride home. It is the shortest way to see Shimla's colonial core and its snow-point in one trip.
This suits a long weekend or a first Himachal visit for two adults who want the hill-station highlights without a long multi-stop drive. Palyatra arranges the Volvo tickets, the Shimla hotel and the private vehicle for the Kufri and city sightseeing so the short timeline stays relaxed.
Best time: March to June for green meadows; December to February for snow at Kufri. Carry warm layers — Kufri stays cool even in summer.
