Here is the Shimla Manali Tour Package from Agra we run most often — 5 nights / 6 days, adjustable to your dates. People from Agra live with the world's most famous Mughal building, so Shimla's architecture is a genuine change: half-timbered Tudor-style houses, the neo-Gothic Christ Church and the grey stone Viceregal Lodge. Manali then trades buildings for snow and rivers.

Agra is only about 5 hours from Delhi by train, so the journey to the hills is short. Mathura and Firozabad travellers often join.
