About this package

Dharamshala and Dalhousie Tour Packages is a 4 nights 5 days plan covering Dharamshala and Dalhousie. Your stay includes hotel rooms on twin sharing with breakfast and dinner, a private car for transfers and sightseeing, and a day-wise itinerary that you can change to suit your dates, group and budget.

Dharamshala sits at roughly 1,450 metres in the Kangra valley below the Dhauladhar range, and McLeod Ganj, its upper town, is home to the Dalai Lama's temple complex, Tibetan cafes and the Bhagsu Nag waterfall. Dalhousie is an old hill station at about 2,000 metres, known for its colonial churches and quiet walks, and it is the base for Khajjiar, a deodar-ringed meadow roughly 25 km away.
