Day wise travel itinerary
Arrive in Amritsar and check in to your hotel. Begin with a soul-stirring visit to the Golden Temple, its gilded façade shimmering in the waters of the holy sarovar. As the day winds down, head to the Wagah Border Ceremony — an electrifying show of military precision, patriotic music, and vibrant flag displays. Overnight stay in Amritsar.
After breakfast, drive into the lush mountains of Dalhousie, a quaint hill station named after British Viceroy Lord Dalhousie. Stroll through pine-fringed lanes, soak in views of the Dhauladhar range, and admire colonial-era architecture. Overnight stay in Dalhousie.
Venture to Chamba, a valley adorned with shimmering lakes, green meadows, and rich wildlife. Continue to Khajjiar, often called the Mini Switzerland of India, where pine forests encircle an emerald meadow. Try paragliding, zorbing, or simply breathe in the fresh mountain air. Return to Dalhousie for overnight stay.
Switch hotels for a fresh perspective of this charming hill town. Spend the day exploring local markets, sampling Himachali delicacies, or taking short scenic walks. Overnight stay in Dalhousie.
Drive to Dharamshala, the seat of the Dalai Lama and a vibrant hub of Tibetan culture. Visit the Dalai Lama Temple Complex, the serene St. John in the Wilderness Church, and the panoramic Dharamshala Cricket Stadium (time permitting). Overnight stay in Dharamshala.
This day is yours — sip coffee in cozy Tibetan cafés, wander through bustling local markets, or take a nature walk in the surrounding cedar forests. Overnight stay in Dharamshala.
After breakfast, drive back to Amritsar for your onward flight or train journey, carrying with you the peaceful spirit of the mountains and memories of a journey well spent.
