Not an easy task because from my personal experience it takes up 12 to 13hrs to reach manali ( excluding 2 3 hrs for breakfast time or lunch time all) at first 5 , 6 hr u enjoy to drive but after that its get tiring towards the day end if you are a solo driver, not only driving but the road of the manali that was extremely dangerous even in some road there was not as much space that two cars can even cross that road together and when you enter in himachal that slopy areas if you don’t have a strong stomach or you have any problem you can even womit in the car
As the place you can’t even think how beautifull it is there was so many place for sightseeing there was one special road one market where everything you can buy and was popularly known as mall road and also have so many places to visit the people was also so good and was very neat country you can’t even throw your chips rapper outside strictness as well as cleanliness make manali a perfect place
but to go their is not any easy task and if an rookie driver think that its an easy task to drive a car and he can drive to manali so let me clear that is not your cup of tea even an professional driver can’t handle car in some slopy arears
so my opinion is you must go to manali but not with car even if your are a profession driver you can go by plane to kullu then you can continue with bus to manali
