Kinnaur is straight up heaven and if you haven't been there then I don't know where are you. This place is insanely beautiful, people are extremely helpful and supportive, the district is very well served by taxis, HRTC and private bus services. All major routes connect to Kinnaur like from Solan, Shimla, Rampur, Pooh, etc.

The drive from Karcham to kalpa is absolutely beautiful with great views of kinnayr kailash. The drive from karcham to chitkul is in a memorable experience in itself. We were lucky to even receive snowfall when we visited chitkul in April. You would want to sit all day long near the baspa river and enjoy the delicious rajma/chawal from hindustan ka aakhri dhaba.
We had used the cab service of Abhishek (Happy) and were more than satisfied with the service. I highly recommed Abhishek and Bhupinder (Sonu) if you are planning a trip in himachal. They are really well versed with the roads.

A trip planned in 2020 and postponed for 2 years due to the pandemic was finally completed in March 2022. Had been in touch with Sonu ji (9816378229/ 9817356899) in 2020 who had planned a great itinerary and i had even paid advance for the tour. He assured me that the money is safe with him and did not even deduct any cancellation charges.
Even after 2 years his rates were absolutely reasonable...especially when you get a driver and guide rolled into one.....sonu and his team know the terrain like the back of their hand....his cousin Omi (omprakash) was our driver and riding the treacherous roads never felt so comfortable. Mild mannered, congenial, helpful and knowing each and every shop, dhaba and hotel, we knew we were in safe hands with Omi.
March is a great time to be there - the weather is clear with fabulous views of pines and snow capped mountains, still cold and nippy for those who enjoy it, enough snow to get bowled over and yet bright sunlight to feel fresh and the first leaf sproutings of the spring crop up on the apple and cherry orchards.....and most importantly.... ZERO CROWD
Our circuit included shimla, kufri, theog, narkanda, sarahan, sangla, batseri and kalpa.
Have already booked Sonu and his team to complete Lahoul Spiti Valley tour next year. No one can do it better.
Kinnaur Himachal is absolutely fantastic...worth the wait.

Out of the world experience. We got in touch with Sonu ji (9816378229) who helped us with the arrangements. The trip was Chandigarh -> Shimla -> Kufri -> Sarahan -> Sangla -> Chitkul -> Sangla -> Manali
Mr. Amit was our driver and believe me he was one of the best drivers I have come across.
The places in Kinnaur district are out of the world and should be visited without a miss. Please do visit Sarahan, Sangla, Chitkul and Kalpa.

We travelled to kalpa,chitkul ,sarahan and kufri in the month of october 2021.The cab service was provided by sonu ji and our driver wasAmit kumar ji.
The trip was made memorable by their efforts.Amit ji guided us to every sightseeing points and was never reluctant in visiting any spot.
We had great conversations with both sonuji and amit ji regarding himachali culture ,traditions,good quality of apples etc
I would highly recommend the service.I bet no one will be able to provide better service than them.

I along with 5 cousins have booked a Spiti Valley Circuit Trip with Sonu Bhai for 10 days starting from 31Aug and ending on 9Sep. Our Driver was his brother Mr Ajay with his Innova HP 01S 4027. I can say without any doubt and hesitation that no other driver or tour operator can give a better trip than Sonu Bhai. Not even a single day, he let us get fed up with the tour as we are on a long trip of 10 days far away from the network and family. On the last day, we felt like we were separating from one of our friends. The whole trip was managed by Sonu Bhai who guided us and his brother about stays at various places and restaurants. Our trip started from Chandigarh-Shimla-Kufri-Sarahan-Sangla-Kalpa-Tabo-Kaza-Chandratal-Manali-Chandigarh. Whole trip was smoothly managed with Driver Ajay's perfect ,skilled, safe and comfortable driving experience. Both Ajay bhai and Sonu bhai made our trip memorable and perfect. We reached home without any headache from a single person in our whole trip.
I would definitely book him for any of my trips in Himachal whether it will be 1 day or 10 days. No other person may give such a perfect trip and experience.
I would recommend you also to please contact and give a chance to Sonu Bhai for your Himachal tour preferably Spiti Circuit. You would love the trip organised by him. He has 20 years of experience and can easily get up with anyone from any part of India.
His Name is Sonu Singh and contact No. are 9816378229/9817356899

We had a pleasant trip in Kinnaur region in the month of April 21.We covered the following major places like Chitkul, Kalpa and Sarahan.
We stayed at Batseri Hotel at Batseri and Kinnaur Villa at Kalpa.
I want to thank Mr Sonu (Cont no 9816378229/9817356899) for his car and he drove us all along the trip.
I strongly recommend all to visit Kinnaur region for its natural beauty and unexplored destinations.

We are a group of 12 members including 2 kids and planning for a trip to Kalpa, Sangla, chitkul via Shimla in middle month of May. Is it ok to take a tempo traveler for this entire trip or we should go for SUV like Innova or Xylo.

Thank you for speaking out for the care and rest for the drivers. A simple fix, charge to the tourists, and feel confident with them on those treacherous roads. Tourists must demand...
