Manali Workation Retreat starts at Manali (Kullu district, Himachal Pradesh), not in Surat — so the plan below adds the travel legs, the time they take, and what they cost.

Nestled within private apple orchards of Old Manali with panoramic snow peak vistas, 100+ Mbps dual-fiber WiFi, ergonomic workstations, 24/7 power backup, chef-prepared farm-to-table organic Him.
