Itinerary

Upon your arrival at the Srinagar International Airport, you will be warmly welcomed by our representative, who will assist you to your awaiting vehicle. The 35-minute drive through the heart of New Srinagar city will take you past the Abdullah Bridge, which spans the Jhelum River as it winds its way to the northwestern frontier of Kashmir. Upon arriving at the hotel, you will proceed for a local sightseeing tour, including visits to the renowned Mughal gardens, Cheshma Shahi (Royal Spring), Nishat (Garden of Pleasure), and Shalimar (Abode of Love). These gardens were laid out in the 16th century and are situated along the banks of the Dal Lake in the center of Srinagar City. You will also visit the Shankaracharya Temple, located atop a hillock, offering a stunning panoramic view of the entire city, including the famous Dal Lake and River Jhelum. On the way back, you will stop at a handloom center, renowned for its production of Pashmina/Shahtoosh shawls and world-renowned carpets. After a day of exploration, you will return to the hotel in the evening for dinner and an overnight stay.
After a hearty breakfast in the morning, we will embark on our countryside day trip to Gulmarg, a picturesque hill station located 2440 meters above sea level and known as the “Meadows of Flowers”. As we drive through the vibrant villages and lush rice fields, we will gain insight into Kashmir’s rich cultural history. We will then arrive at the small market town of Tangmarg and continue on a scenic 14-kilometer drive to Gulmarg. Gulmarg is renowned for its world-class ski slopes and the world’s highest golf course, with 18 holes. Upon arriving in Gulmarg early in the afternoon, we will take a short tour around the meadow to appreciate its beauty. We will then board the Gondola cable car system (on a direct payment basis) and ascend towards the Afarwatt Mountain range. The eight-minute ropeway ride will take us past the colorful shepherd huntsmen to the lower ridge of the Afarwatt peak. We will be able to admire the breathtaking natural beauty of Kashmir Valley from here, as well as the stunning views of the nearby mountain ranges, which stand tall like sentinels protecting it. In the evening, we will drive to Srinagar for dinner and an overnight stay.
After a sumptuous breakfast, set off for Pahalgam, a picturesque valley located 97 kilometers south of Kashmir. Known as the 'Shepherd's Village', Pahalgam is renowned for its exotic forests, beautiful streams, and imposing snow-capped peaks. On our way, we will pass through Pampore, where you can visit the famous saffron fields, Awantipora, and the village of Bijbehara, which is known as the breadbasket of Kashmir. We will then switch from National Highway 1A at Khanabal and drive through the second-largest city of Anantnag. Once we arrive in Pahalgam, you can explore the Aru Valley, Beetab Valley, and Chandanwari (on a direct payment basis), as well as take a horseback riding trip to Baisaran meadows. After a day of sightseeing in the mountain valley, we will return to the hotel for a night's stay.
After a quick breakfast, we will drive to the Srinagar airport for your flight home. The driver will be more than happy to assist you with your luggage and will drop you off at the terminal with plenty of time to spare.
