Respected Sir,

I am writing this letter to inquire about the facilities available at Chikhaldara and to request some information regarding the same. I came across your advertisement in the local newspaper and was intrigued to know more about the tourist destination.

As an enthusiastic traveler, I am planning a visit to Chikhaldara during the upcoming holidays. However, the entry fee mentioned in the advertisement seems a bit steep. Therefore, I request you to kindly consider providing me with a concession in the entry fees for my visit.

Additionally, I would also like to know more about the accommodation facilities available in Chikhaldara. Kindly provide me with details regarding the types of accommodation, tariffs, and booking procedures. Moreover, I would like to know if food facilities are available on-site or if I should arrange for meals separately.

Lastly, I would also like to inquire if online booking facilities are available for both accommodation and food and if so, please provide me with the relevant links and instructions to make an online booking. 

I would be grateful if you could provide me with the requested information at the earliest, as it will enable me to plan my visit accordingly. I am eagerly looking forward to experiencing the natural beauty of Chikhaldara.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Yours Sincerely,
Anandi Jadhav

Dear Mohan
It was lovely to get your letter and to hear the good news that you are going trekking with your friends. You (ought to/ would/ should) have a break after your exams!

You (will/ can/ must) take at least one sweater because it (ought to/ should/ can) get very cold in the mountains. You (needn't/ could/ should) pack a gas stove
because there (could/ may/ will) be plenty of firewood from dead trees.
I'm sure you will have a wonderful time but I (may/ would/ should) give you a word of warning. Don't get stuck in the Lak:i Pass at night. Once you're there you (won't be able to/ can't be able to/ not to able to) get down and it's very dangerous at night. By the way, you (should/ should have to/ should have) told me earlier that you were going and I (should have/ would have/ will have) given you my walking boots!
Anyway, look after yourself and enjoy your holiday.

With love
