What you can expect

  • Discover the charm of Shimla with a well-planned day tour guided by a professional English-speaking expert. Start your journey with a 40-minute toy train ride, a UNESCO World Heritage experience. Enjoy breathtaking views of lush green valleys and pine forests as the train winds through tunnels and bridges.

    Visit the grand IIAS, housed in the historic Vice-regal Lodge. Built in 1888, this Scottish Baronial-style building served as the summer retreat of the British Viceroy of India. Learn about its historical significance, including the discussions leading to India’s partition.

    Discover the art, culture, and heritage of Himachal Pradesh at the Himachal State Museum. The museum houses a rich collection of traditional costumes, paintings, and ancient artefacts.

    Stroll along Shimla’s iconic Mall Road with stops at the Railway Board Building, the Evening College, Scandal Point, the Municipal Corporation Building, the Gaiety Theatre, and Christ Church (entrances extra).

    Relish delicious local and North Indian cuisine at the popular Ashiana Restaurant (cost extra) with great views of the Mall Road. End your tour at the bustling Lakkar Bazaar, famous for its wooden handicrafts, souvenirs, and cosy woollens.
