Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Arrival in Srinagar
  • Step into the most famous tourist destination of Kashmir, Srinagar!
  • Arrive at the Srinagar airport or railway station, where our representative will warmly welcome you.
  • We will drive you to the hotel, where you can relax and refresh after check-in.
  • Later, proceed for a sightseeing tour in Srinagar and explore its amazing attractions.
  • We will take you to the famous Mughal Gardens, lovely gardens built in 1619 by the Mughal emperor.
  • These gardens feature stunning architecture, colorful flowers, fountains, peaceful environments, beautiful walkways, pools of water, and a variety of plants.
  • After that, visit the famous Shankaracharya Temple (also known as Jyesteshwara Temple), a Hindu temple situated on top of the Zabarwan Range in Srinagar.
  • Next, explore the iconic Dal Lake, renowned for its unique houseboats, locally known as "Shikaras."
  • These beautifully crafted wooden houseboats are a popular accommodation option.
  • At the end of the day, you will be driven back to the hotel for an overnight stay in Srinagar.
  • After breakfast in the morning, begin your Kashmir tour towards Gulmarg.
  • The drive past colorful villages and rice fields offers insight into the rich cultural heritage of Kashmir.
  • Gulmarg, one of the most beautiful hill stations in the Kashmir Valley, is also known as the Meadow of Flowers.
  • It boasts the world's highest golf course and is famous for winter sports such as skiing.
  • You can enjoy a Gondola ride (cable car; at your own cost) from Gulmarg to Khilanmarg.
  • The 8-minute ropeway ride will take you past colorful shepherd hutments to the lower ridge of the Apharwat Peak.
  • From here, you can capture stunning photos of the nearby mountain ranges, which stand tall like sentinels guarding the natural beauty of the Kashmir Valley.
  • After spending time at the peak, descend back to the Gulmarg base.
  • At the end of the day, return to Srinagar for an overnight stay at the hotel.
  • After breakfast, drive to Pahalgam, situated at an altitude of 2,133 meters, also known as the Valley of Shepherds or Trekker's Paradise.
  • Pahalgam is renowned as a prominent destination for the Indian film industry.
  • En route, visit the Saffron Fields and Awantipur Ruins, an 1100-year-old temple of Lord Vishnu built by King Awantivarman.
  • Witness the beautiful countryside and lush rice fields along the way.
