- Headache, nausea, unusual breathlessness or poor sleep can be signs of altitude sickness, so tell your driver early and do not climb higher if you feel worse
- Ask your doctor before you travel, and check first if you have heart, lung or blood pressure problems
- Children, elders and anyone unwell should take a slower plan with an extra night

Travel tips for Himachal
- Carry warm layers even in summer, because evenings are cool, plus sunscreen, sunglasses and a light rain jacket
- Carry a valid photo ID for every traveller, and some cash, because ATMs can be far apart in the hills and cards are not accepted everywhere
- Mountain roads wind a lot, so carry motion-sickness tablets and some snacks and water for the long drive days
- Mobile networks can be patchy, so tell family your plan and download offline maps before you leave
- Keep one spare day in your plan, because landslides, snow or a damaged road can delay the journey
- Book onward flights or trains for the evening or the next day after your last night, not the same morning
- In Kinnaur and Spiti, take the first day slowly, drink plenty of water and tell your driver at once if you feel unwell
