    A.K.Travels provided us a good package inclusive of stay and sight seeing. It was absolute value for money and really good. They provided us stay in One of the best resorts in Manali named Glacier resorts , we had been here in the month of February when the weather was unpredictable. Experienced snow and rain at the same time and the staff was professional and took good care of us providing all necessary amenities to stay warm. Coming to food, it was really really great and delicious. The chef was too professional and even cooked some of the dishes as per requirement. All the dishes we ordered was vegetarian and it was good and tasted like home made dishes itself. Rooms were cozy and nice and importantly it had an amazing view of the Manali City and Mountains as soon as you go into the sit out section. Staff were professional and always prompt in their doings. We also opted for the transport facilities from the resort for local sight seeing. The chauffers escorted to all the places in and around Manali on time safely. Need to mention the person Kishan Rana who runs the place has a good property and who treats his guests very well and makes them feel as if they are at their home. ...more
