    The Exciting Dharamshala & Dalhousie tour is the full Kangra-plus-Chamba loop: an overnight Volvo from Delhi to Dharamshala, a Mcleodganj day at the Dalai Lama's Tsuglagkhang and Bhagsu waterfall, a Palampur and Kangra Valley day at the tea gardens and the historic Kangra Fort, then the transfer to Dalhousie for the Khajjiar Mini Switzerland meadows and a colonial Dalhousie day before the Volvo back. Four nights let you settle into both hill stations rather than pass through.

    This suits two adults who want the monastery, the fort, the tea gardens and the meadows in one relaxed trip. Palyatra arranges both Volvos, the Dharamshala↔Dalhousie transfer and the hotels at both stops so the only on-the-day decisions are where to wander on the Khajjiar meadow.

    Best time: March to June and September to November for clear Dhauladhar views; December to February for snow. Carry warm layers for both hill stations.
