Complete Guide to Manali Trip Cost

Manali is 540 km from Delhi — a scenic 10 to 12-hour drive through the Kullu Valley that is an adventure in itself. This Himalayan hotspot offers everything from snow-capped peaks and adventure sports to riverside cafes and ancient temples, making it North India's most versatile holiday destination.

A 4-5 day Manali trip from Delhi ranges from ₹8,000 for hostel-hopping backpackers to ₹45,000 for luxury resort experiences. The cab fare is a significant portion given the distance, but Triveni Cabs keeps it affordable at ₹11/km for sedans. Our drivers are experienced with the Manali mountain roads and Aut Tunnel route.

The real spending in Manali happens on adventure activities — paragliding at Solang Valley (₹1,500-3,000), river rafting in Kullu (₹800-1,500), and the Rohtang Pass trip (₹550 permit + cab). Budget travelers can still have an amazing time exploring Old Manali, Vashisht hot springs, and Hadimba Temple — all free.

For the best experience at reasonable cost, plan your trip for March-April (spring blooms) or September-October (post-monsoon clarity). A mid-range 4-night trip for a couple including cab, hotel, meals, and 2-3 activities costs ₹15,000-20,000 per person — exceptional value for a Himalayan adventure holiday.
