Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Srinagar Arrival and Transfer to Pahalgam | A Quiet Little Town Adorned with a blanket of Pine Trees and Crystal-Clear Rivers
Meet upon arrival at the airport and drive to Pahalgam (Valley of Shepherds). En route, visit saffron fields, Awantipura ruins (1,100-year-old temple of Lord Vishnu built by King Awantiwareman), see the beautiful countryside, and enjoy views of numerous rice fields. Drive through the pine forest. You may choose to go river rafting in the gushing waters of the Lidder River. You can also visit Betaab Valley and Chandanwari or take a horse ride to Baisaran meadows. Walk through the charming meadows to reach Aru Valley and Betaab Valley, which gained popularity after featuring in many Bollywood movies. Take a walk on the famous snow bridge at Chandwani, which is a base of the annual Amarnath Ji Yatra. In the evening, check in to the hotel for an overnight stay in Pahalgam.
After breakfast, drive to Srinagar. In the afternoon, join a sightseeing trip to Mughal Gardens, visiting Nishat Bagh (Abode of Pleasure) built by Asif Khan, brother-in-law of Jehangir, in 1632 AD, and Shalimar Bagh (Abode of Love) built by Jehangir for his wife, Empress Noor Jehan. All the gardens are situated on the banks of Dal Lake, with the Zabarwan Mountains in the background. Drive to the hotel for dinner and an overnight stay in Srinagar.
After breakfast, drive to Gulmarg (Meadow of Flowers), located 2,730 meters above sea level. The distance of 60 kilometers will be covered in about 2.5 hours. Gulmarg has one of the best ski slopes in the world and the highest golf course, featuring 18 holes. You may also see Nanga Parbat if the weather permits. The view en route from Tangmarg to Gulmarg is fascinating. You can also take a short trek to Khilangmarg, which can be covered in about 3 hours. Enjoy sled riding on the snow, and chair lifts for mountain rides are also available. Overnight stay in a Srinagar hotel.
After breakfast, drive to Sonamarg (Meadows of Gold). The distance of about 83 kilometers will be covered in approximately 2.5 hours. Sonamarg lies in the Sindh Valley, adorned with flowers and surrounded by mountains. It is also the base for interesting treks to high-altitude Himalayan lakes. Enjoy horse riding up to the Thajwas Glacier and sled riding on the snow. In the evening, enjoy a 1-hour Shikara ride on Dal Lake, where you can take in the majestic views of the surrounding mountains from the Shikara. Do not forget to admire the beautiful carpet of lotus flowers on Dal Lake. After the ride, return to your houseboat for dinner and an overnight stay.
The driver will pick you up from your hotel and take you on an excursion to Doodhpathri. Stroll through the panoramic 'Valley of Milk' and marvel at the vast green meadows, where rivers seem like milky streams. After the sightseeing, proceed to Srinagar Airport to board your flight back home, carrying beautiful memories of your Kashmir tour.

Note: Please book evening flight tickets from Srinagar to allow time to visit Doodhpathri.

(Written on 14 Jan, 2025)

What's Good: I'm delighted to share my exceptional experience with Welgreen Kerala Holidays, expertly managed by Mr. George. Our customized tour package exceeded our expectations, blending comf (Read More)ort and memorable experiences. Hotel selections were impressive: Hotel Sea View at Kanyakumari offered breathtaking sunrise views and delicious food. Hotel Germanus in Madurai, Hotel Soma Palmshore in Kovalam, and Hotel Taika in Rameshwaram provided pleasant stays with good food and courteous staff. The houseboat experience was outstanding, with mouth-watering local cuisine, including an unforgettable fish fry. However, hot water for bathing was not available. Some valuable tips for future travelers: verify temple timings and dress code regulations in advance to optimize your itinerary. Ladies can find lovely, affordable sarees and dress materials. Engaging local drivers or guides can also enhance your experience. Mr. George and Welgreen Kerala Holidays deserve 100% marks for crafting an unforgettable trip with thoughtful hotel choices and a well-planned itinerary.

What's Not Good: The houseboat experience was outstanding, with mouth-watering local cuisine, including an unforgettable fish fry. However, hot water for bathing was not available and no more activities at the shore. Rather we would have preferred to stay in a hotel and take long ride of houseboat in the afternoon to late evening would have better.
