Mashobra is a little outside of downtown Shimla District, so it’s likely you’ll be doing a good amount of driving. If you’re planning to use Mashobra as a base from which to explore the city and its surrounds, choose a smaller set of wheels. Nothing beats a compact for squeezing into those tiny downtown parking lots. Alternatively, if you’re moving away from the bright lights and busy traffic, reserve something with a stronger engine and more storage. Not many people regret splashing out that little bit extra on a full-size or an SUV.
