Tour Overview

Chandratal Lake at five-thirty in the morning from a heated premium tent at fourteen thousand feet where the sleeping bag is insulated to minus-twenty and the camp crew delivers coffee at five-fifteen, and a Beas-facing fireplace suite in Manali's finest river resort — luxury Himachal Pradesh seven days.

Luxury in Manali is not a question of five-star amenities — it is a question of access, timing, and logistics. The experiences that separate a luxury Manali trip from a standard one are not available at any price point at the last minute: the Chandratal premium tent camp fills weeks ahead in peak season; the Naggar Castle heritage hotel has four rooms and books out months in advance; the sunrise private vehicle to Rohtang (departing 5:30 AM, arriving before the NGT quota fills) requires a dedicated driver who knows the permit system; and the Hadimba 7 AM private temple tour (with a local guide who explains the Himachali woodcarving tradition and the Hadimba mythology in detail) is different from the self-visit that fills the same courtyard at 10 AM.

This 7-day luxury package handles all of it — Beas riverside suite with fireplace, private car throughout, Rohtang with NGT permit secured the day before, Naggar Castle hotel overnight, Chandratal premium camp with pre-dawn coffee service, and Hampta Pass valley view at sunrise.

Full policy details

Cancellation Policy
  • 10 or more calendar days before departure: a 30% cancellation charge applies to the eligible package amount. Choose a 70% refund in USDC or 100% of the eligible amount as Atravelx Travel Credit.
  • Less than 10 calendar days before departure: 100% non-refundable. No refund or Travel Credit is ordinarily issued.
  • After travel commences, or no-show: non-refundable. No refund or Travel Credit is ordinarily available.
  • Days are counted as calendar days to the scheduled departure date, in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The timestamp on your written request fixes when Atravelx received it.
  • Cancellation requests must be made in writing through an authorised Atravelx channel: your concierge, info@atravelx.com or WhatsApp +91 92500 00511. A phone call alone does not cancel a booking until it is confirmed in writing.
  • Quote the booking reference, the lead traveller's name and the services affected. Atravelx may ask for identity or payment verification before acting on a request.
  • A reason is not needed to qualify under the 10-day window.
  • Cancelling some travellers, rooms, nights or services is a package amendment, not a cancellation. It does not qualify for the 10-day refund or credit on its own, and it can change the per-person price for the remaining travellers.
Atravelx Travel Credit
  • Travel Credit is issued as an Atravelx Credit Note for 100% of the eligible amount actually paid, denominated in USDC.
  • The 30% cancellation charge is waived when you choose Travel Credit instead of a refund.
  • Credit can be used towards any eligible service booked through Atravelx: holiday packages, stays, flights, transfers, sightseeing, car rental, visa assistance and other eligible services.
  • Travel Credit is non-cash. It cannot be withdrawn, exchanged for cryptocurrency or fiat currency, or transferred to another person, unless Atravelx agrees in writing.
  • The validity period and expiry date are stated on the Credit Note.
  • Prices at the time of the new booking apply. Travel Credit does not hold the same hotel, room, destination, dates, itinerary, supplier, activity, package or price.
  • If the new booking costs more, you pay the difference in USDC. If it costs less, the balance stays on the Credit Note under its terms.
  • Once you choose Travel Credit, the choice is final. It is not later converted into a refund.
Date Change Policy
  • Request date changes 10 or more calendar days before the scheduled departure date.
  • A date change is not guaranteed. It depends on hotel, transfer and activity availability, supplier approval, revised room rates, seasonal pricing, blackout dates, peak-season supplements, transport costs, fare differences, supplier amendment charges and revised itinerary costs.
  • If the revised package costs more, you pay the difference in USDC. Supplier amendment or date-change charges may also apply.
  • A date change is confirmed only when Atravelx confirms the revised arrangements in writing.
  • Requests made less than 10 calendar days before departure depend on supplier approval and cannot be guaranteed.
  • A postponement or date change is not a cancellation. It does not by itself create a refund or Travel Credit entitlement.
Bundled Holiday Packages
  • Atravelx holiday packages are booked and priced as bundled travel arrangements made up of several interconnected services.
  • Individual components of a confirmed package cannot ordinarily be cancelled separately.
  • Removing a service does not automatically entitle you to a proportionate refund or Travel Credit.
  • Any request to remove, replace or modify a component is treated as a package amendment, subject to supplier approval, availability, revised pricing, amounts recoverable and applicable charges.
  • A value shown against an individual service does not mean it was separately contracted or can be independently cancelled.
Visa & Travel Documentation
  • Travellers are responsible for a valid passport, the right visa, transit visas, entry permits, immigration documents, health documentation and any other paperwork required by the destination or a transit country.
  • Visa decisions are made solely by the relevant government, embassy, consulate or immigration authority. Atravelx does not guarantee approval, processing time or appointment availability.
  • A visa refusal, delay or failure to obtain a visa does not override the cancellation conditions unless Atravelx confirms otherwise in writing.
  • Government, embassy, visa application centre, biometric, courier and processing fees may be non-refundable once paid or submitted.
Refund Processing & Timeline
  • Atravelx acknowledges a cancellation request within 2 working days. Acknowledgement confirms receipt, not eligibility or amount. After reviewing the booking, Atravelx confirms in writing which services are cancelled, the refundable and non-refundable components, the deductions and the refund amount.
  • Approved refunds are processed within 45 working days from the date Atravelx confirms in writing that the refund is approved.
  • The 45 days do not run from the booking date, the date you first asked to cancel, or the departure date.
  • Working days exclude Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays in the United States and India.
  • Refunds are calculated and paid in USDC. The refund is the eligible package amount in USDC as shown on your invoice, less the cancellation charge and any supplier deductions.
  • If you paid in another cryptocurrency, the refund is still the USDC value of the eligible amount at the time of payment, not the number of coins you sent. Atravelx is not liable for changes in the market value of any coin between payment and refund.
  • Refunds are sent to the wallet address the payment came from, on the same network. If that is not possible, you may nominate another wallet, which Atravelx verifies in writing before sending. Atravelx is not responsible for funds sent to a wallet address you supplied incorrectly.
  • If you paid by card or bank transfer through an Atravelx payment partner, the refund goes back to that payment method where the partner supports it. Otherwise another method is agreed in writing.
  • Blockchain confirmations, payment partners, card issuers and banks may add time before the funds show in your wallet or account.
  • Where Atravelx cancels a confirmed booking for reasons within its reasonable control, all amounts received for the cancelled services are refunded in full, initiated within 7 working days. An alternative itinerary or Travel Credit may be offered, but you are not required to accept it instead of the refund.
  • An approved refund is not replaced with Travel Credit unless you expressly agree, or the supplier itself provides only a credit or voucher under conditions disclosed before booking.
Supplier-Specific & Non-Refundable Services
  • Certain services carry their own cancellation, refund or amendment terms: airline tickets, visa fees, embassy, consulate and visa-centre charges, travel insurance, rail tickets and passes, cruise and ferry bookings, event, concert, sports and attraction tickets, special-event bookings, non-refundable hotel rates, supplier deposits and any service identified as non-refundable.
  • Where supplier-specific conditions were communicated in the quotation, invoice, voucher, booking confirmation or service conditions before payment, those conditions apply to that service.
  • Blockchain network fees paid when you sent your payment are not part of the package amount and are not refundable.
No-Show, Unused & Partially Used Services
  • No refund or Travel Credit is ordinarily provided for: no-shows, cancellation after travel has commenced, voluntarily unused services, partly completed holidays, missed hotel nights, missed transfers, missed activities or sightseeing, missed trains or other transport, traveller delays, failure to report at the required time, services missed because of documentation issues, or services missed for reasons attributable to the traveller.
  • If a supplier voluntarily approves a refund in an exceptional case, Atravelx passes on the recoverable amount in USDC under the applicable supplier and booking conditions.
Booking Acceptance
  • By confirming a booking and making payment, you accept the cancellation, refund, date-change, bundled-package and Travel Credit conditions in this policy.
  • Conditions stated in writing for an individual booking (quotation, invoice, voucher or booking confirmation) supplement this policy. Where a supplier's terms are stricter and were disclosed before payment, they apply to that service.
  • A booking is governed by the version of this policy shown on the package page on the booking date, unless a later version is more favourable to you or Atravelx agrees otherwise in writing.
  • For events beyond Atravelx's reasonable control (severe weather, natural disasters, epidemics, war, civil unrest, strikes, government restrictions, border or airport closures, supplier insolvency and similar), refunds, credits, postponements or alternatives depend on the affected supplier's policy and the amounts recoverable. Atravelx helps coordinate with the suppliers.
  • Nothing in this policy restricts any statutory right available to a consumer under applicable law.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Naggar Castle Heritage Hotel available year-round?
The Naggar Castle Hotel (HP Tourism, 4 rooms) operates year-round. It books out 4–12 weeks in advance in peak season (May–June, September–October) and is more easily available November–February. We initiate the Naggar Castle booking at the time of package confirmation — it is the first booking we place. If Naggar Castle is unavailable for your dates, the alternative is The Himalayan or Banjara Camps (luxury tent property near Naggar on the Beas — premium alternative with similar heritage context).
Does the Chandratal premium camp have proper toilet facilities?
The Chandratal Forest Department-regulated camping zone requires all operators to use eco-toilets (portable, regularly cleaned). The premium camp option uses enclosed portable units with hand-wash station. They are clean and functional at mountain standards. There are no flush toilets, running hot water showers, or Western bathroom amenities at Chandratal — this is part of the high-altitude camping experience. Hot water for a face wash is provided by the camp crew in the morning. The premium camp's main advantage over standard camps is insulation quality (tents, bedding) and service (pre-dawn coffee), not bathroom infrastructure.
What is the cancellation policy for the Naggar Castle Hotel and Chandratal camp?
Naggar Castle Hotel (HP Tourism): cancellation policy is 7 days before check-in for full refund; within 7 days, one night's charge is retained. Chandratal camp: cancellation 5 days before arrival for full refund; within 5 days, 50% charge retained (high demand makes last-minute rebooking difficult). Full package cancellation policy is provided at time of booking — we recommend travel insurance with cancellation coverage for this package given the advance bookings required.
Is the luxury package worth the premium over the classic package?
The specific premiums that justify the luxury package over Package 4B (Classic, ₹17,999) are: (1) Naggar Castle Hotel — not accessible at any budget, requires the specific booking well in advance; (2) Chandratal heated tent with pre-dawn coffee service — the difference between a memorable and a genuinely extraordinary lake experience; (3) private car throughout — the difference between managing shared taxis across 7 days and having all timing windows delivered without logistics management; (4) Hadimba private guided tour — 90 minutes of heritage depth vs a self-visit. For travellers who prioritise these four specifics, the premium is fully justified.
What is the Span Resort vs The Himalayan preference protocol?
At booking, we ask preference: (1) Span Resort & Spa — 3-star luxury Beas River resort, outdoor heated pool, multi-property restaurant options, fireplace suites at ₹12,000-18,000/night; (2) The Himalayan — boutique mountain hotel in Old Manali, cedar-wood construction, private balcony with Deo Tibba view, ₹10,000-15,000/night, smaller scale, more intimate. Span suits travellers who value resort amenities; The Himalayan suits travellers who value boutique mountain character. Both are confirmed at the time of booking based on availability and preference.
