No. Rohtang needs an online vehicle permit with a daily limit, and it is usually open only from May or June to November. We can add it on request, at extra cost. The Atal Tunnel day to Sissu is included.

Yes. Delhi to Manali is about 540 km and 12–14 hours by road. Ask us for a cab quote, or see our Manali trip by cab from Chandigarh.
