Tailored for travelers who crave both natural beauty and cultural discovery, this tour takes you through the most iconic regions of Kashmir, including Srinagar, Sonmarg, and Gulmarg.
From the moment you arrive in Srinagar, you’ll be immersed in the breathtaking charm of the Kashmir Valley. With comfortable accommodation, optional activities like the Gulmarg Gondola ride, scenic walks through Mughal gardens, and traditional Shikara rides on Dal Lake, every moment of your tour is carefully crafted for peace, joy, and unforgettable memories.
Whether you’re traveling as a couple, a solo explorer, or with family, this Kashmir travel itinerary guarantees an immersive experience in one of the most beautiful regions in the world.
Your journey begins in Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu & Kashmir. Enjoy the visual feast of the Mughal Gardens – the lush Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Bagh – nestled beside Dal Lake and built in the Persian style with terraced lawns, fountains, and floral beds.
No trip to Srinagar is complete without a Shikara ride on Dal Lake. Glide past floating gardens, houseboats, and mountain reflections while vendors sell flowers and Kashmiri handicrafts from their own boats. It’s a dreamy and peaceful experience that sets the tone for the entire tour.
In the evening, you can explore local bazaars and discover traditional hand-knotted carpets, pashmina shawls, and Paper Mâché artifacts — unique souvenirs that showcase the region’s rich heritage.

Next, you’ll head to Sonmarg, also known as the “Meadow of Gold.” This stunning alpine valley is known for its raw, untouched beauty, surrounded by snowy peaks and green meadows. The drive to Sonmarg is an experience in itself, winding through valleys and pine forests.
One of the major highlights here is the Thajiwas Glacier, which you can reach via an optional pony ride. This short trek leads to an icy wonderland, with cascading streams and glacier-fed pools — a favorite for photography lovers and nature enthusiasts alike.
Your third destination is Gulmarg, the famed “Meadow of Flowers.” This area is a paradise for both summer and winter travelers. From golf courses set at the world’s highest altitude to snow-draped slopes perfect for skiing, Gulmarg has it all.
Adventure seekers can opt for the Gulmarg Gondola, a cable car ride that lifts you up to the peaks of Mount Apharwat. The views from the top are nothing short of breathtaking, with pine forests, snow valleys, and the distant Pir Panjal range creating a majestic panorama.
Aside from the gondola, Gulmarg also offers opportunities for ATV rides, sledging (in winter), and leisurely walks through scenic paths.
