Vikas's Trip to Spiti, Kaza, Sangla

5 /5

(Written on 14 Feb, 2025)

What's Good: Himachal ≅ Peace ≅ Kinner Kailash Tours Travels India Pvt. Ltd. When you think of Himachal Pradesh, images of snow-capped mountains, lush valleys, winding roads, and rivers flow (Read More)ing through picturesque landscapes instantly come to mind. However, to truly experience its magic, you need a reliable tour agency and a knowledgeable local guide who can provide authentic insights into the region. Mr. Vijay Negi, through Kinner Kailash Tour and Travels India Pvt. Ltd., along with our rider and guide, Mr. Shubham Thakur, are the ones who truly made this experience unforgettable. Our trip was Delhi - Shimla - Narkanda - Sarahan - Sangla - Chitkul - Sarahan - Delhi. As a traveler, it's important to be clear about your objectives and requirements. Once you have that in mind, Mr. Vijay Ji will take care of everything throughout your trip. From the very beginning, he assisted us in planning our itinerary (especially with our time constraints), coordinated with various stakeholders, and managed all the logistics at different stages of our journey. He is truly a gem of a person—humble, kind, and dedicated to making your experience seamless. Our stays at the different hotels were well-organized and hassle-free. We simply walked into our accommodations in the evening and relaxed. Each property offered both vegetarian and non-vegetarian food options, along with well-managed services like morning and evening snacks, tea/coffee, hot water, and bonfires. Given the environmental constraints and working habits of localities, please ensure that any specific requests—such as a bonfire or food preferences—are communicated to Mr. Vijay Ji earlier in the day. Last-minute requests are difficult to accommodate, especially in remote locations. As travelers, we also have certain responsibilities, such as clearly communicating our needs, understanding the changing environment, and adapting accordingly. The comfort of city life can’t be replicated in the mountains for obvious reasons. However, by using our common sense and emotions, it’s certain that a trip to Kinner Kailash will make your time in Himachal truly memorable for a lifetime. Mr. Shubham Thakur not only guided us to various places but also helped us understand their significance, local customs, modern practices, and the behaviors of both locals and tourists. He also shared insights into the local economy. Additionally, he encouraged us to try the local food and sweet dishes, which were absolutely delicious. He introduced us to exciting activities such as zip-lining, snow walks, snow slides, and short treks. When we made last-minute changes to our plan, Shubham Ji was more than happy to accommodate them. What an absolutely breathtaking and mesmerizing experience it turned out to be! Of course, like any experience, there are areas where improvements can be made. These include refining the preparation of sweet dishes, ensuring an adequate supply of hot water, maintaining in-room temperatures to prevent freezing floors, and providing extra water jars in the rooms. Special Thanks : Sanju, The maggi person at Narkanda, Gattu, Caretaker at Sangla property & the cute kid with running nose at Sangla. To conclude, I’d like to share two lines that reflect what we discovered and understood with Mr. Shubham Ji: 1) Aashiq bante hai Ishq se, Driver bante hai Risk se....!! 2) Haste Raho, Swast Raho, Masst Raho....!!
