Details

Welcome to Srinagar, the enchanting Lake City. Upon arrival at Srinagar Airport, our representative/driver will warmly greet you. After the check-in process, embark on a local sightseeing tour of Srinagar. Explore the renowned Mughal Gardens, including Nishat Bagh (The garden of pleasure), Shalimar Bagh (Abode of love), and Chasme Shahi Garden. Additionally, pay a visit to the Shankaracharya Temple. In the evening, enjoy a shikara ride on Dal Lake before retiring for the night at a Srinagar Houseboat.

Following breakfast at the houseboat/hotel, embark on a day excursion to the picturesque Sonmarg, a scenic drive from Srinagar. En route, stop at various beautiful spots and continue the journey to Sonamarg, also known as the "Meadow of Gold." Here, you can indulge in horse riding to Thajiwas Glacier, where snow persists throughout the year. Sonamarg, the Gateway to Ladakh, offers opportunities for trekking to remote villages like Naranag and exploring alpine lakes like Vishansar and Krishansar. Return to Srinagar in the evening for an overnight stay at the hotel.

After a morning breakfast, embark on a countryside tour to Gulmarg. Drive through vibrant villages and rice fields, providing a glimpse into Kashmir's rich culture. Gulmarg, a top hill station in India, is renowned for having the world's highest golf course and the Asia's largest cable car project, the Gulmarg Gondola. The destination is also famous for skiing and snowboarding during the winter season. Enjoy an 08-minute ropeway ride on Gulmarg Gondola, capturing picturesque views before descending to Gulmarg base for an overnight stay at the hotel.

Post breakfast, proceed to Pahalgam, known as the 'Valley of Shepherds' or 'Trekker's Paradise.' En route, visit Saffron fields, Awantipur ruins (a 1100-year-old temple of Lord Vishnu built by King Awantiverma), and enjoy the scenic beauty of the countryside and rice fields. Upon arrival in Pahalgam, check into the hotel. After lunch, take a leisurely walk and capture the magnificent mountain views. Dinner and overnight stay at a Pahalgam hotel.

After breakfast, explore the scenic and rocky valley of Chandanwadi and Snow Point (approximately 14 km from Pahalgam). Opt for an exciting pony ride to enhance your experience (please note that these activities are at your own expense). Return to the hotel in the evening, exploring Pahalgam on foot. Dinner will be served at the hotel. Note: In Pahalgam, only local taxis are permitted for sightseeing, while outside vehicles are restricted to pick-up and drop-off services.

Enjoy a buffet breakfast, check out from the hotel, and drive to Srinagar Airport for your onward journey. Depart with cherished memories provided by Tour My India. Important Information: Due to stringent security measures, it is advisable to leave the hotel at least 4 hours before your departure time, as passing through four security barriers at the airport often leads to traffic delays.
