How this version is planned

  • Fewer hotel changes and later starts, so mornings are yours
  • A room upgrade request and a cake or flower decoration on one night, on request and subject to the hotel
  • Evenings kept free for sunsets and dinners rather than packed with sightseeing
  • Private transfers throughout instead of shared coaches
  • A relaxed pace with two-night stays where possible

This is a suggested itinerary. Sightseeing order may change with opening days, weather and local conditions; your final plan is in your written quote.

Good to know

  • Srinagar: Spend one night on a houseboat and the rest in a hotel; it gives you both experiences.
  • Gulmarg: Book gondola tickets online the day before; they sell out quickly in peak season.
  • Pahalgam: Local union taxis are required for Aru, Betaab and Chandanwari; we include them in your quote.
