Overview

Kashmir is best seen slowly — with a cup of kahwa on a houseboat, a gondola ride above Gulmarg and a lazy afternoon by the Lidder river. This fixed-date group trip covers Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonamarg in 6 nights, with every stay, transfer and local cab arranged.

You travel with a small group of like-minded travellers and a Dil Se trip captain who handles timings, tickets and the occasional surprise, so all you have to do is enjoy the valley. Solo travellers are very welcome — most people join alone.

Highlights

  • Overnight stay on a Dal Lake houseboat
  • Gulmarg gondola (Phase 1) and snow point
  • Pahalgam — Betaab & Aru valleys
  • Mughal gardens and Shikara ride
  • Bonfire and Kashmiri wazwan dinner
