  • Transfer to your hotel in McLeod Ganj.
  • Check in at your hotel and enjoy breakfast at the hotel.
  • Visit the Dalai Lama Temple Complex (Tsuglagkhang Temple).
  • Explore the Tibetan Museum just next door. It provides a great insight into the history and culture of Tibet, along with the Tibetan struggle and the life of the Dalai Lama.
  • After the temple visit, take a walk to the McLeod Ganj Market. The market is bustling with vibrant Tibetan crafts, jewelry, woolen clothes, and souvenirs.
  • Walk towards Naddi Viewpoint (about 4 km from McLeod Ganj).

The booking and arrangements initially was excellent. Reeta was contacting me almost daily to assist me and finalise my itenerary. She also accommodated my preferred hotel requests. I then made paymen (Read More)t ,on 7 October 2024. Since then Reeta has stopped communicating. She however did ask her office to send me internal travel arrangements (after I requested the details) and I have since only had communications from Nikhil from her office. I just feel that I should have been advised by Reeta, that after initial sale by her , I will be handed over to her office admin for ongoing communication. Then I would understand. Otherwise I just felt neglected. Hope it all starts and ends well. I only arrive in Mumbai on 11/11/2024. But still dont know who will meet me at airport. Regards Mano
