Mall Road & No-Vehicle Zones – Walking Requirement: Most Himachal towns (Shimla, Manali, Dalhousie) have strict “No-Vehicle” Mall Roads. The vehicle will drop guests at the nearest authorized parking. Guests must be prepared to walk or take a public elevator/local shuttle (Self-paid).

Sightseeing Constraints: Schedule changes may occur due to weather, traffic, or distance constraints. “Sightseeing like Rohtang Pass, Atal Tunnel, or Sissu may be restricted by authorities without prior notice due to snow. No refunds are applicable for such government-mandated closures.”

Timing & Night Driving-Safety First: Due to mountain safety protocols, driving after 08:00 PM on hill roads is strictly discouraged and only allowed in emergencies.
