About this tour

Himachal Pradesh is where India's professional class comes to breathe. Kasauli's colonial bungalows, Shimla's Victorian hill-station architecture, and Manali's mountain estates offer a category of second home that is genuinely unlike anything available elsewhere in India — quiet, cool, and growing in desirability as working-from-mountains becomes a permanent lifestyle choice rather than a pandemic anomaly.

This five-day tour covers three distinct Himachal markets, each at a different price point and character. Your guide is Rajiv Sood of Himalayan Estates, who has been advising buyers in Himachal since 2004 and understands the regulatory complexities that catch many buyers off-guard — including the restrictions on non-Himachali buyers purchasing agricultural land.

Your tour guide
Rajiv Sood
Founder, Himalayan Estates · Shimla

Rajiv has been working the Himachal hill-station property market since 2004. A trained architect before moving into brokerage, he brings a structural and design perspective to every property he shows — buyers consistently note that his assessments of construction quality and renovation cost are far more precise than a standard agent's. His firm manages over 60 Himachal properties for absentee owners.

Day-by-day itinerary

Day 1 — Sunday 8 Nov
Delhi to Kasauli

Group departure from Delhi by private vehicle (5-hour drive). Arrival Kasauli by late afternoon. Check-in at the Kasauli Resort. Evening orientation walk through Kasauli's Mall Road with Rajiv.

Day 2 — Monday 9 Nov
Kasauli Viewings

Three properties in Kasauli: a 1920s colonial cottage (British-era original), a newer hillside home with cedar-and-glass construction, and an apple orchard with a farmhouse on 1.2 acres. Lunch at Kasauli Club (guest access arranged).

Day 3 — Tuesday 10 Nov
Shimla Market

Drive to Shimla (2.5 hours). Two properties: a heritage building near Scandal Point currently operating as a B&B, and a new mid-century-inspired build on the Sanjauli ridge with panoramic Himalayan views. Session on Shimla's MCM (Municipal Corporation of Shimla) regulations.

Day 4 — Wednesday 11 Nov
Manali Estate & Kullu Valley

Morning drive to Manali via Old Manali (3.5 hours scenic). Apple orchard estate on the Kullu Valley floor — one of the most unusual assets in India, producing income while offering a home site. Afternoon: riverside farm cottage in Old Manali village.

What past attendees say

I came sceptical and left with a signed reservation. The local partner knew every corner of the market — including deals that never reach the portals.

R.M. · London

Six viewings in four days, all pre-vetted. No time-share pressure, no developer sales rooms. Just real properties with honest pricing.

P. & A. Chen · Singapore

The group dynamic surprised me — twelve serious buyers comparing notes creates a remarkably useful signal on what's genuinely worth pursuing.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before reserving your seat.

Do I need a visa for this destination?+

Visa requirements depend on your passport. We send pre-departure guidance with current entry rules to all confirmed attendees. Most destinations offer visa-on-arrival or e-visa for major passport holders.

What happens to my deposit if I change my mind?+

Your deposit is fully refundable up to 8 weeks before departure, no questions asked. After that, we work with you to defer your place to a future tour in the same region.

Can solo travellers join?+

Absolutely — around a third of our attendees travel solo. Tours are structured around property viewings and expert sessions, not couples activities. Solo travellers consistently tell us it's a highlight of the experience.

Are properties developer-pushed, or genuinely curated?+

We are strictly buyer-side. No developer pays to have their property on our itinerary. Every viewing has been independently sourced and pre-vetted by our local partner for title, planning status, and realistic pricing.

How are flights and hotels handled?+

Flights are booked independently — we send a preferred routing guide 8 weeks before departure. Ground transport, accommodation during viewings, and curated meals are all included in the tour price.
