Srinagar 3 N & Pahalgam 1 N.
5 Days / 4 Nights – FIT Tour
Arrive in Srinagar (hotel/residence/airport/rail/bus pickup) and enjoy a short orientation through the Old City with its timbered balconies, shrines, and spice bazaars. Check in to your deluxe houseboat on Dal Lake and settle in. After lunch, stroll Boulevard Road beside shimmering waters with the Zabarwan Range as a backdrop. Around 4:00–5:00 PM, enjoy a 1-hour Shikara ride at Nehru Park, gliding past floating gardens and houseboats bathed in golden light. Evenings on the lake are serene—sip kahwa on the sundeck, followed by dinner and an overnight on the houseboat.
After breakfast, drive through saffron fields and willow-lined roads to Pahalgam, the “Valley of Shepherds”. Check in around noon and breathe the pine-fresh air along the Lidder River. Choose a gentle riverside walk or pony ride to Chandanwari; adventure lovers can explore short meadow trails with postcard views. Pause for lunch at a local café and linger over the tranquil scenery as the sun softens. Evenings are quiet—ideal for sky-watching and photography. Return to your hotel by 7:00 PM for dinner and overnight in Pahalgam.
Enjoy breakfast and depart by 9:00 AM, reaching Srinagar around noon. After check-in, set out to the storied Mughal Gardens—Cheshma Shahi (Royal Spring), Shalimar (Garden of Love), and Nishat Bagh (Garden of Pleasure)—terraced lawns, chadars of water, and Chinar shade reflecting imperial aesthetics. Later, drive up to Shankaracharya Temple for sweeping views of Dal Lake and the city. On your way back, stop at a curated handicraft emporium for silk carpets, pashmina & papier-mâché. Return by 7:30 PM for dinner and overnight in Srinagar.
Post breakfast, ascend via Tangmarg to alpine Gulmarg—rolling meadows framed by deodar and spruce. Ride the Gondola to Kongdori (Phase I; tickets direct; weather permitting); if conditions allow, continue to Apharwat (Phase II) for glacier vistas and, on clear days, glimpses toward Nanga Parbat. Prefer trails? Opt for the Khilanmarg walk or explore the vintage Gulmarg Golf Course. Enjoy lunch at a local café, then drive back to Srinagar by early evening. Dinner and overnight at the hotel, savoring Kashmiri specialties.
Savor a leisurely breakfast and relaxed morning—last-minute shopping for saffron, dry fruits, papier-mâché or a final lakeside stroll. Check out as per flight/train timing and transfer to Srinagar Airport/rail/bus stand for your onward journey. Carry home the essence of Kashmir—mirror-calm waters, Chinar-lined gardens, pine valleys, and alpine horizons—wrapped in warm hospitality and unhurried moments.
