Kashmir travel guide

Why Kashmir is called paradise on earth

A Kashmir trip feels different from the first evening: kahwa on the deck of a Dal Lake houseboat, the call of the boatmen and the Zabarwan hills turning gold. Within a few days you can stand in snow at Gulmarg, walk through the pine valleys of Pahalgam and see the Thajiwas glacier at Sonamarg.

Our Kashmir tour packages cover the classic Srinagar–Gulmarg–Pahalgam–Sonamarg circuit in 4 to 7 nights, with options for a Kashmir honeymoon, a relaxed family holiday or a winter snow trip. Prefer company? Join a fixed-date Kashmir group trip with a Dil Se trip captain — ideal for solo travellers.

Every package includes handpicked houseboats and hotels, a private or trip vehicle with an experienced local driver, and a team that checks on you every day.

Places to visit

Best places to visit in Kashmir

01

Srinagar & Dal Lake

Stay on a carved-wood houseboat, take a sunrise Shikara ride to the floating vegetable market and walk the Mughal gardens — Nishat, Shalimar and Chashme Shahi.

02

Gulmarg

The “meadow of flowers” is India’s best-known snow destination. Ride the Gulmarg Gondola (Phase 1 to Kongdoori, Phase 2 to Apharwat), ski in winter or picnic on green slopes in summer.

03

Pahalgam

A pine-scented town on the Lidder river with Betaab Valley, Aru Valley and Chandanwari close by. Perfect for gentle walks, pony rides and riverside evenings.

04

Sonamarg

The “meadow of gold” sits at the foot of the Thajiwas glacier — sledging in early summer, wildflowers later, and the gateway to the Zoji La road to Ladakh.

05

Doodhpathri & Yusmarg

Quieter meadows for travellers who want streams, grassland and pine forests without the crowds — great day trips from Srinagar.

06

Gurez & Bangus (offbeat)

For repeat visitors: remote valleys with log houses, the Kishanganga river and very few tourists. Ask us — these need a little extra planning.

Getting there

How to reach Kashmir

✈️

By air

Srinagar International Airport (SXR) has direct flights from Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata and more. Delhi to Srinagar is about 1 hour 30 minutes.

🚆

By train

Trains now run through the Himalaya to Srinagar on the Katra–Srinagar line. Jammu Tawi and Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra are the main long-distance railheads.

🚗

By road

The Jammu–Srinagar highway (NH44) takes 7–9 hours through the Banihal tunnels. We arrange private cabs from Jammu or Katra.

Good to know

Kashmir travel tips

  • Postpaid mobile connections work in Kashmir; prepaid SIMs from other states do not — carry a postpaid number.
  • Gulmarg Gondola tickets sell out in peak season — we book them in advance for you.
  • Local union taxis are used for Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonamarg sightseeing; this is included in our packages.
  • Pack layers: even summer evenings get chilly in Pahalgam and Gulmarg.
  • Carry cash — some houseboats, shikaras and small shops do not take cards.
  • Respect local customs; dress modestly near shrines and mosques.
