"We booked Kulwant for our Spiti trip after a friend recommended him and honestly it was the right call. The drive itself — Kunzum La, Chicham Bridge, all of it — is not for a nervous driver but he handled everything without making it feel scary for us. What I didn't expect was how much local stuff he'd point out along the way, little things a normal driver wouldn't bother with. By the end of the trip it felt less like we'd hired someone and more like we'd traveled with a friend who happened to know the mountains really well."

"Booked Kulwant for the Spiti circuit and the planning itself was easy, he was clear about timings and what to expect before we even left. He took the time to actually explain what we were looking at and updated the itenary based on our preferences. Steady and reliable the whole trip. Would definitely book again, this time for winter spiti."

"Did the full Spiti circuit with Kulwant. Roads get pretty intense once you're past Kaza but he's driven it so many times it never felt sketchy. Patient guy too, didn't rush anyone. Highly recommended."

Kulwant Singh Thakur

Meet Kulwant

Born and raised in Solan, Himachal, Kulwant grew up in these mountains — they're home ground, not a job site. Every road, shortcut, and roadside dhaba along the way, he knows firsthand.

He's been driving the Spiti circuit since 2019 — over a hundred circuits — and knows the village elders, monastery caretakers, road conditions, and chai stops on every stretch, from Chitkul and Kalpa in Kinnaur through Tabo, Kaza, and Key Monastery to Kunzum La and Chandratal.

There are no fixed packages. Kulwant learns what you want — your dates, your pace, who you're travelling with — and shapes the trip through conversation. First-aid trained, permits handled, and Kulwant at the wheel the whole way.
