The Kullu Dussehra festival tour, held in Himachal Pradesh,India is a popular event that symbolizes the triumph of good over evil.The grandeur of the Kullu Dussehra festial centres around a colourful procession of beautiful gold and silver idols that symbolise the Hindu deities, which are brought in by the devotees from the far flung villages in the Kullu Valley, a procession of which is taken through the town’s streets. Kullu Dussehra ,is believed to date back to the 17th century when the then local King Jaganand installed an idol of Lord Raghunath (Lord Rama) on his throne as an act of penance, thereafter which Lord Raghunath came to be known as the ruling deity of the valley. During the festivity of Kullu Dussehra, almost 250 to 300 idols from different places in the valley, make their way from local village temples to Kullu in order to pay their obeisance to Lord Raghunath, the presiding deity of Kullu Dussehra.

A big thanks to Way To India for organising such a truly memorable and spiritually fulfilling experience during our 12 Jyotirlinga Darshan pilgrimage from 1st May to 18th May. They organized the entire journey exceptionally well, ensuring that every aspect of the trip was smooth, comfortable, and hassle-free. From transportation and hotel arrangements to darshan planning and coordination, everything was managed professionally. Despite the extensive travel across multiple destinations, the itinerary was well-structured, allowing us to complete all the Jyotirlinga darshans comfortably. Thanks to staff of Way To India, especially, Ms Neha, who was supportive, responsive, and attentive throughout the journey, always ready to assist whenever needed. Her dedication and careful planning made this sacred pilgrimage stress-free and enjoyable. I sincerely appreciate their excellent service, commitment, and hospitality. Highly recommend Way To India to anyone planning a spiritual tour, especially for the 12 Jyotirlinga Yatra. Thank you for making this divine journey so special and memorable.

We recently entrusted our honeymoon planning to 'Way to India', and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we made. From itinerary finalization to on-ground execution, everything was handled with remarkable professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail. Every aspect of our trip — flights, hotels, transfers, experiences, and even the small thoughtful touches — was perfectly curated. The itinerary was balanced, well-planned, and tailored exactly to what we wanted. We never had to worry about a single thing; all arrangements were seamless and absolutely hassle-free. What truly stood out was their responsiveness and genuine care. They were always available, always patient, and consistently went the extra mile to ensure our journey was special. Special thanks to Neha Ma'am for planning everything. We are incredibly grateful and wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone looking for a stress-free, personalised, and delightful travel experience. Thank you for making our honeymoon truly magical!
