Bedi Holidays Manali

The arrival point was far from Bir. I could have taken the government bus, which stops in the same place and was cheaper.

Better maintained than local buses.

Bus stop mentioned was Bir Tibetan Colony but bus dropped me 2.5 km away from stop.

Bus got cancelled and no one informed prior about this. When called the driver asking for the bus arrival, he informed five minutes before arrival time that bus is cancelled.

Really clean, typical local bus. Pick up location was almost right, drop off was completely wrong. Driving was absolutely crazy and frightening to be honest.

The actual time is 8:30 am.

Seats need maintenance.

1. Provided driver phone numbers are incorrect. 2. Wrong pickup point, while I was booking it was shown as tibetan colony and at last minute I was told it will be Bir Road. 3. There would be a pickup stop every 10 mins, it's not a reservation based bus, it's a regular public bus. 4. They did not make any phone call when they arrived, even though I was available at spot. After 10 mins I got to know they left and I had to travel to Joginder Nagar by myself to catch this bus.

Not a great experience. What should have been a quick, short journey took a long time because the bus avoided the direct route and detoured through multiple villages. The ride itself was not very comfortable, even though it ran continuously without long stops. The biggest issue was the drop-off—instead of leaving me at the Dharamshala stand, they dropped me off 1-2 km away. For this price, you are much better off checking out other options. Or better to check the route of the bus before booking the ticket.

It's very convenient. I am really happy that they are providing service from Manali to Bir Billing. If you want to go Bir for paragliding from Manali, you may avail this one.
