Lengthy answer... please bear with me ;)
Day 1: Travel to Manali-
1. Take an early morning flight to Chandigarh/Delhi. Although direct flight [with/without stops] to CHANDIGARH would be preferred, the number is smaller compared to that between MUMBAI and DELHI.
1a. If you take a flight to DELHI, choose flights whose timings will let you board a train to CHANDIGARH. I personally would avoid hiring a taxi all the way from DELHI. Instead take the taxi from CHANDIGARH.
2. Hire a taxi at CHANDIGARH for MANALI. The distance is approx. kms. It would take you about 8hours of leisurely driving which will allow you to marvel the mighty mountains.
Alternative at CHANDIGARH would be to hire a taxi for local sight-seeing and take the over-night bus to MANALI. CHANDIGARH has a few places you would love to visit. You have good number of HP Tourism, public and private transport operators running Volvo services.
For places of interest in CHANDIGARH, visit:

Day 1: Arrival at Manali-
1. You should reach MANALI latest by 19:00. Rest for the night.
Day 2: Walks around the Town-
1. Loiter around the small town. Do lots of window-shopping/ exploratory shopping. Avoid impulse purchases. A day around the city would get you a feel about the right bargain.
2. Gather information about the tours operated to Kullu and back by both private and HP Tourism.
Some places of interest in Manali and its immediate vicinty [5-10km raidus] are:
Hadimba Temple
Arjun Gufa
Vashisht Hot Water Springs
Jagatsukh
Kothi
Tibetan Monastries
For more:

Day 3: Rohtang Rendevous-
1. If you have been to Manali, a trip to ROHTANG Pass is MANDATORY [no offence meant only a not-to-miss-suggestion ;0)]. You have good number of taxis/jeeps/sumos which operate on a individual and sharing basis.
2. Be back in MANALI by 17:00 to get ready to take the over night bus to SHIMLA.
Day 4: Naggar- Kullu- Manikaran Soujourn-
1. One complete day for Naggar, Kullu & Manikaran would help you visit at leisure the places you should not miss. Hire a taxi for the day to take you to Naggar, Kullu, Manikaran and back to Manali. Following link would be helpful I suppose:
http://www.hptdc.nic.in/cir02.htm
http://hptdc.nic.in/trans.htm
2. Back to Manali latest by 19:00 hours.
NOTE: Start early say, by 07:00.
Day 5: Walk in the Woods-
1. Go on long walks along the many trekking routes. Local guides would be the best to assit you with info and equipment if required. I am sure you would be your own Discovery Channel.
Day 6: SHIMLA- KALKA Toy Train:
1. Enjoy the beautiful journey back to the lower Himalayas. I am sure you would love it.
2. Reach KALKA latest by 15:00
3. Leave for DELHI to reach latest by 19:00
4. Take the late evening flight from DELHI to MUMBAI
For details about the toy train between SHIMLA and KALKA visit:

If indeed you are able to plan it from SUNDAY to SUNDAY, which I recommend you do, you would save on money as you can start from MUMBAI for AMBALA enroute CHANDIGARH and then MANALI by train late night on SATURDAY itself. For example:
1057 Dadar- Amritsar Jn. Exp.
Days of Run: DAILY
Dadar d 23:45
Thane a 00:08 d 00:10
Kalyan Jn a 00:30 d 00:35
Ambala Cant Jn a 09:30 d 10:05
This option will save you money for sure and ensure that you are still sticking to the above-mentioned schedule. You may even opt to hire a taxi at AMBALA with a condition that city-tour of CHANDIGARH is included. FYI:
AMBALA- CHANDIGARH 55km
CHANDIGARH- MANALI 320km |
