No, we’re not fond of crowds at all, and yes, Kullu Valley is one of the most touristy places in India. But we still managed to have a great time, either by doing non-touristy things, or doing touristy things at non-touristy times. It also helped that we were there at the beginning of April, just before the start of the main tourist season. So here, in no particular order, are our top experiences from our Kullu-Manali trip.
