Rates Sit Behind the Partner Login

Net rates stay logged-out-invisible so the sell price is yours to set and a client who finds this page cannot price-shop the quote you sent them. Hotels, the full itinerary and every operational note below are open.

Day by Day

01

Srinagar to Pahalgam

90 km · about 4 hrs

Arrival at Srinagar Airport and the drive to Pahalgam at 6,997 ft, the Valley of Shepherds. On the way, the Awantipura ruins and the Pampore saffron fields.

Overnight: Pahalgam

02

Pahalgam, Full Day

Aru Valley, Chandanwari and Betaab Valley. Evening free for shopping.

Union cab not included. Aru Valley, Betaab Valley and Chandanwari are served by the local taxi union only — outside vehicles cannot enter. Payable directly and highly negotiable. Pony ride, rafting, fishing and trekking are also at the client's own expense.

Overnight: Pahalgam

03

Pahalgam to Srinagar

90 km · about 3 hrs

Transfer to Srinagar with city sightseeing: Nishat Garden, Shalimar Garden, Shankaracharya Temple and Cheshma Shahi.

Note. Shankaracharya Temple and Cheshma Shahi are visited by local union cab on a sharing basis. Ticket charges are paid directly; the driver will guide.

Overnight: Srinagar

04

Sonmarg Day Excursion

174 km round trip · about 6 hrs

To Sonmarg, the golden meadow at 2,800 m, at the head of the river Sind. Thajiwass Glacier and Zero Point are nearby.

Union cab not included for Zero Point or Zojila Pass. Thajiwass Glacier is reached by pony ride at the client's own expense.

Overnight: Srinagar

05

Gulmarg Day Excursion

120 km round trip · about 6 hrs

Gulmarg at 8,700 ft, India's premier ski resort, with the world's highest golf course. The Gondola cable car runs to Kongdori and on towards the Apharwat range.

Vehicle access changes by season. In winter our cab runs only to Tanmarg, 15 km short of Gulmarg; from there a local-union 4x4 snow cab is compulsory and the driver arranges it. In summer our cab reaches the hotel or Gulmarg parking, and no sightseeing beyond that — the Gondola point is reached on foot, by pony, by ATV or by local cab, paid directly.
Gondola tickets. Book online in advance at the official J&K cable car site; online booking is mandatory. Book them yourself so any refund returns to your own account — refunds are not guaranteed.

Overnight: Srinagar

06

Srinagar Departure

25 km · about 1 hr

Breakfast, checkout and transfer to Srinagar Airport.

Selling tip. An evening flight gives your client time for Polo View Market and Lal Chowk before departure.
