Affiliate Disclosure

How this site is funded, in plain language.

In short: if you book a tour or a hotel through a link on this site, we may earn a commission. You pay exactly the same price. Nobody pays us for a good review, and nothing on this site is a paid placement.

Who we work with

GetYourGuide. Every tour and activity on Himachal.com is booked through GetYourGuide, and we are a registered affiliate partner. When you book after clicking one of our links, GetYourGuide pays us a share of its commission. Your price is unchanged.

Trip.com. Accommodation links on our where to stay page go to Trip.com. Where an affiliate relationship is in place, we may earn a commission on completed stays, again at no extra cost to you.

What this does and does not change

  • It does not change your price. Commission comes out of the platform’s margin, not your booking.
  • It does not buy a ranking. No operator or hotel can pay to appear on this site or to be ranked higher on it.
  • It does not stop us being critical. We say when a tour is rushed, when a season is a poor choice and when the free option is better.
  • It does fund the site. Research, hosting and keeping information current are paid for by these commissions. There is no advertising.

How we choose what to recommend

Tours are chosen on how much of the region you actually experience, the quality of guiding, safety, value for money and what reviewers say afterwards. Hotels are selected on reputation, location and value. When something stops being good, it comes off the list.

Prices and accuracy

Any prices mentioned on this site are indicative and can change at any time. The price you see on the booking platform at the moment of purchase is the one that applies.
