Spiti Valley Tour Packages from Mumbai

How to Reach Spiti Valley from Mumbai
Mumbai is 2,000+ km from Kaza. There is no direct road or train that drops you there. First, you have to travel by air, then by road or train.
By Air: Nearest airports are Bhuntar (Kullu-Manali) and Shimla Airport. Flights depart from CSIA Terminal 2, Mumbai. IndiGo and Air India operate Mumbai-Bhuntar flights via Delhi. Bhuntar to Kaza is 7 to 8 hours by road.
By Rail: The nearest major stations are Chandigarh or Kalka. The Mumbai LTT Chandigarh Express runs from CSMT, which is a common route included in a Spiti Valley package from Mumbai. After reaching Chandigarh, the road to Kaza takes 10 to 12 hours.
By Road
- Bus: No direct bus runs from Mumbai to Spiti. Catch an overnight bus to Delhi, then board an HRTC bus toward Shimla or Manali. Seasonal buses from Manali run to Kaza via the Atal Tunnel in the summer months.
- Own Car or Tempo Traveller: You can take the Manali route or the Shimla Route, both are distance-wise almost the same. It is almost 2000 km, expect 4 to 5 days of driving with proper halts.
Viacation's packages include all ground transport within the mountains, tempo traveller, driver, and fuel included.
What is the Best Time to Visit Spiti Valley from Mumbai?
Spiti is technically accessible all year, but the Manali route closes in winter, and the Kinnaur route turns risky with snow. Here is the honest breakdown:
March to April: Cold, partially accessible, Shimla-Kinnaur route opens by late March, which is something to keep in mind while planning Spiti Valley tour packages from Mumbai.
- Temperature: -10°C to 18°C
- Ideal for: Photographers, those who want a raw, empty Spiti
May to July: It is the best Time to visit Spiti Valley because both routes are open, roads are at their best, and villages are fully alive. Peak season for good reason.
- Temperature: 10°C to 25°C
- Ideal for: First-timers, trekkers, group travellers, families
August to October: August can bring landslides on the Manali route. September-October are golden with fewer crowds.
- Temperature: 10°C to -5°C
- Ideal for: Solo travellers, offbeat explorers, budget groups
November to February: Roads close, temperatures drop to -20°C at night. Not recommended for casual travellers.
- Temperature: -20°C to -30°C
- Ideal for: Experienced winter expedition teams only
Manali Route or Shimla Route? How to Pick the Right One
Your experience of Spiti changes entirely based on which route you take, which is why Spiti Valley packages from Mumbai usually guide you on the best option. Both are worth knowing before you book.
Manali Route: Mumbai → Delhi → Manali → Atal Tunnel → Spiti
Faster and more dramatic. Landscape shifts quickly from green Kullu Valley to barren Lahaul to wide cold-desert Spiti Valley.
- Best Time: May to October
- Total Distance (Delhi to Kaza): ~700 km
- Travel Time: 14 to 16 hours
- Difficulty: High
- Full Route: Mumbai > Delhi > Chandigarh > Manali > Atal Tunnel > Gramphoo > Batal > Kaza
- Route Highlights: Kunzum Pass (4,590 m), Chandratal Lake detour, Lahaul Valley
Shimla Route: Mumbai → Delhi → Shimla → Kinnaur → Spiti
Longer and more scenic. The Kinnaur section runs along the Sutlej River cliffs — nerve-wracking but unforgettable. Covers Sangla, Chitkul, and Nako Lake before entering Spiti.
- Best Time: Mid-April to October
- Total Distance (Delhi to Kaza): ~850 km
- Travel Time: 18 to 20 hours
- Difficulty: Moderate to High
- Full Route: Mumbai > Delhi > Shimla > Narkanda > Rampur > Kalpa > Nako > Tabo > Kaza
- Route Highlights: Chitkul (last Indian village), Nako Lake, Tabo Monastery (1,000+ years old)
According to our customers, both routes have their own pros and cons. You can choose any of it at your convenience. Most travellers take one route in and return via the other, two different Himalayan worlds in one trip, which is exactly how the Spiti Valley package from Mumbai is designed to give you the complete experience.

What to Carry and Know Before You Enter Spiti
Spiti is high altitude, remote, and cold even on June nights. ATMs are rare, mobile networks are patchy, and proper hospitals are hours away.
Travel Tips:
- Acclimatise one night in Manali or Shimla before going higher
- Carry ₹5,000 to ₹8,000 cash: Kaza ATMs are unreliable
- BSNL SIM works best; Jio and Airtel have limited coverage
- No permits needed for Indian nationals: just carry your Aadhaar card
- Consult a doctor about Diamox before any high-altitude trip
Things to Pack:
If you are planning a Spiti Valley package from Mumbai, don't forget to carry these important things
- Heavy woollens and a windproof jacket (nights below 5°C even in June)
- Sunscreen SPF 50+ (UV is intense at altitude)
- Energy bars, dry fruits, ORS sachets
- Personal medication and a basic first aid kit
- Power bank and extra memory cards
- Sturdy waterproof trekking shoes
Why Spiti Hits Different for Mumbaikars
If you live in Mumbai, Spiti is basically the opposite of everything your daily life looks like — and that is exactly the point.
- Cool Temperatures: June nights in Spiti are around 5°C, while Mumbai sits at 35°C with high humidity.
- Zero Noise: No horns, no construction. Just wind and monastery bells.
- Forced Presence: Weak network means you are actually offline, a rare luxury for any city person.
- Sense of Scale: Standing in a valley surrounded by 6,000-metre peaks does something to your perspective.
- Real Local Culture: Spitian homestays and food — nothing curated or touristy.
- Fewer Crowds: Still off the radar compared to Manali or Shimla.

The Manali route to Spiti Valley is typically open from late May to October. Kunzum Pass and Rohtang Pass, which lie on this route, close due to heavy snowfall from November onwards and reopen once the snow clears, usually by late May. Exact opening dates vary each year depending on snowfall levels. The Shimla Kinnaur route remains open through winter and is the only accessible road from November to May.
The distance from Shimla to Kaza is approximately 430 km by road via the Kinnaur route. Depending on road conditions, stops, and traffic near Kinnaur, the drive takes 12 to 15 hours and is usually split across two days with an overnight halt at Kalpa, Nako, or Tabo. Attempting the full stretch in one go is not recommended as the roads demand full attention and daylight driving.
Between ₹25,000 to ₹45,000 per person, depending on group size and duration. Viacation offers both group and private options.
Most of Spiti is above 12,000 feet. Anyone with a cardiac condition must consult their doctor before booking.
