About this run
How we drive it
The Kangra–Kullu road is a fine day of driving — the tea gardens to Palampur, the old Baijnath temple, then over into the Beas valley at Mandi with the river running alongside all the way up to Kullu. Most people carry on to Manali, but Kullu is worth a stop: the Dussehra ground, the shawl weavers and the temples above the town.
We do straight one-way drops for travellers heading on to Manali or Manikaran, and round trips where the same car stays with you for Kullu, Bijli Mahadev and the Parvati valley. Either way it is one fare, agreed before you leave, with no handovers on the hill road.
One fare for this run, quoted on WhatsApp before you travel. See what's in a Kangra taxi fare.

- One all-in fare: car, driver, fuel, tolls, parking and permits
- The same driver door to door, booked without an agent
- Clean AC cars on commercial tourist-taxi permits

Once you reach Kullu
Bijli Mahadev
The temple on the ridge above Kullu, reached by road then a walk. The valley view from the top is the best in the district.
Parvati valley
Manikaran’s hot springs and gurudwara, and Kasol beyond, turn off at Bhuntar — about an hour from Kullu.
Manali
Another hour up the valley. If Manali is the real destination, we usually recommend going straight there and treating Kullu as a stop.

Kangra to Kullu taxi: your questions
How long is the taxi from Kangra to Kullu?
About 5.5 hours for the ~185 km via Palampur, Mandi and the Beas valley, plus your halts. A morning start gets you in with the afternoon free.
Can we carry on to Manali or Manikaran from Kullu?
Yes. Manali is a short run further up, and Manikaran and Kasol sit in the Parvati valley off Kullu. We can drop one-way or keep the car with you for the whole loop.
What does a Kangra to Kullu taxi cost?
The all-in fare depends on one-way vs round trip and which car you take, so we quote the run rather than publish a rate, confirmed on WhatsApp before you travel.
