(100 kms/5 hrs) mesmerizing sight that will leave you speechless for sure. We don’t have words to describe it. Spend the night at camp close to the lake.Day 9 Chandrataal to Some people call it tough, some call it adventurous and some call the drive of their life- this is the last day of your trip before you head back to Manali via civilization in Manali. The road between Chandrataal and Manali is the toughest, roughest, most scenic and we guarantee you will skip a few Kurzum and breathes this day. The non-existence of roads, a few water falls, dry and dusty make this terrain difficult. On the other hand, snow capped Rohtang Pass mountains, Chandra river flowing to meet Bhaga and the vast landscape make your drive memorable. Spend some time at Rohtang if time (130 kms/7 hrs) permits.
Day 10

12 19200/- 21300/- 30000/-Traveller Reviews Mr. Tapajyoti Saha (Travelled with us May 2017) We visited Spiti Valley on May 2017 . Our route was Chandigarh - Shimla - Narkanda - Sangla - Kalpa - Nako - Tabo - Kaza - Jibhi via Kalpa - Manali - Chandigarh . I don't have any words to describe the beauty of Spiti Valley, It is such a stunning place . Every mountain lover should visit Spiti valley once to rediscover himself . Incredible Spiti was our tour planner for this trip and they have done their best to make this trip a memory of a life time . They have guided us on a right track from the beginning so that we can feel eternal bliss through the nature of Spiti Valley . Their arrangements such as accommodation, food , sight seeing was above our expectation level . Chering Ji, Dinesh Ji, Poonam Ji, Mingamar Ji , Vishesh Ji & all of their team members are so enthusiastic that you don't need to worry about any thing. I would like to Thank Team Incredible Spiti & specially Visheshji for being so supportive Ms. Rajee Nair (Travelled with us in 2016) It is almost a year since I visited Spiti and I can still not get over it ... I remember Vishesh Shourie telling me before I went there that it would change my life ... little did I know that it really would and how ! There is no way to describe the place and what it does to you .. words fall short because nothing can describe the beauty of vast emptiness stretching beyond the horizon ...and the skies so blue ... it makes you want to cry .... Spiti ... calls out to me everyday ... I go through the motions of my "normal life" thinking that one day I will go back ....again ... no better team than Incredible Spiti to contact when visiting Spiti ... for me Vishesh Shourie has become synonymous with Spiti ... his knowledge ... his passion for what he does is beyond comparison ... when I think back to the questions I have hounded him with ... ranging from valid to the most inane ... he answered them all with equanimity ... Thank you Incredible Spiti for making my dream com true and yes ... hasta la vista ! Ms. Kajal Arora (Travelled with us in 2016) Incredible Spiti follows what the name says. The company provides incredible experience to Spiti. Groups are well organised, guide is knowledgeable. They have experienced drivers who know how to keep a car in control in rough terrains. Guest house and home stays are good. And yes, it's v safe to travel with them esp. if you happen to be a female solo traveller. Mr. Kalpesh Ahire (Travelled with us in 2016) IWhile describing Spiti Rudyard Kipling says "Surely the Gods live here......this is no place for men". This very compliment made me take up a trip to Spiti Valley and I am so glad I did it with these amazing bunch of people under the name "Incredible Spiti". Even though I registered as a solo traveler I can proudly say I now have some very good friends as the team organized a wonderful trip for few other solo travelers like me. Right from the first phone call to Vishesh I was sure I have made the right decision to explore Spiti with his team. I truly had an incredible time, the hospitality and politeness touched everyone of us in the group. I am surely returning back to experience the wonder called Spiti and recommend everyone to do so soon enough and definitely with Incredible Spiti!
