Frequently Asked Questions
+When is Jalori Pass open?
Jalori Pass is generally open mid-April to early-December. In peak winter the pass road may close briefly for snow clearing — we monitor BRO updates and reroute via a lower forest road when needed.
+What happens after I send the enquiry?
A Himachal Wale trip advisor calls you during business hours, checks your travel dates, pickup city, group size, hotel preference and must-see places, then sends a written itinerary with an exact price. You can compare it, ask for changes, and book only when the plan feels right.
+Is the callback free or do I have to book immediately?
The callback and first itinerary quote are free. There is no pressure to pay on the call. We first help you finalise the route, hotel category, cab type and travel dates; payment is needed only when you approve the final written package.
+Can I customise the itinerary shown on this page?
Yes. The itinerary is a strong starting plan, not a fixed group departure. You can add nights, reduce long drives, upgrade hotels, change the pickup city, add Sissu/Spiti/Amritsar/Kasol side trips, or choose a slower family-friendly version. We rewrite the package around your group.
+What is included in the price shown here?
The starting price usually covers hotel stay, breakfast and dinner, private cab transfers, sightseeing, tolls, parking, fuel, driver allowance and GST. Adventure activities, entry tickets, lunch and personal expenses are quoted separately so there are no hidden surprises later.
+How much advance payment is required?
A 30% advance usually confirms the booking. The balance can be paid before departure through UPI, bank transfer or our online payment gateway. You receive the package details, payment schedule, cancellation terms and support contacts in writing.
+Is the vehicle private or shared?
Packages are planned with a private cab for your group unless clearly mentioned otherwise. For 2 pax we usually suggest a Dzire / Etios, for 3-4 pax an Ertiga / Innova, for 5-6 pax an Innova Crysta, and for larger groups a Tempo Traveller. The exact vehicle is confirmed before booking.
+Are these tours safe for families and senior citizens?
Yes. We adjust hotel altitude, drive length, sightseeing pace and vehicle type for families with children or senior citizens. If a route is seasonal or physically demanding, our advisor will tell you clearly and suggest a safer alternative.
+When is the best time to travel?
Most lower Himachal circuits work well from March to June and September to December. Spiti, Ladakh, Chanshal and Manali-Leh are seasonal and depend on pass openings. Share your month of travel and we will recommend the safest route window before you book.
