Itinerary
Arrival, Shikara Ride & Mughal Gardens
Arrive at Srinagar Airport/Railway station and transfer to your hotel or houseboat. Relax and freshen up. In the afternoon enjoy a Shikara ride on Dal Lake, visiting floating gardens and markets. Later visit the Mughal Gardens — Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Bagh — set along the Dal Lake shores. Evening at leisure with an optional stroll along the Boulevard.
Tip: Carry a light jacket for evenings on the lake; shikara rides are peaceful and suitable for children and elders.
Gulmarg Excursion & Gondola Ride
After breakfast depart for a scenic drive to Gulmarg (approx. 1.5–2 hours). Explore the expansive meadows of Gulmarg and enjoy the famous Gulmarg Gondola — one of the highest cable cars in the world (subject to weather). Spend time walking through alpine meadows; optional activities include pony rides or short, guided nature walks.
Note: Gondola tickets and operation depend on weather/season; we recommend booking early during peak season.
Sonamarg Day Trip & Thajiwas Glacier
Embark on a full-day trip to Sonamarg, often called the 'Meadow of Gold'. Drive along picturesque routes and reach Sonamarg for a walk toward Thajiwas Glacier (short pony/trek option available). Enjoy panoramic views and photo stops. Return to Srinagar by evening for dinner and overnight stay.
Important: Dress in layers; higher-altitude areas are cooler and can be windy.
Drive to Pahalgam via Pampore & Awantipora
Check out and drive to Pahalgam (approx. 2.5–3 hours), passing through historic towns and saffron fields of Pampore. En route, stop at local points of interest such as Awantipora ruins and small villages for photos. Arrive in Pahalgam, check-in, and relax. Evening free to explore the riverside or local market.
Family tip: Road stretches are scenic; keep snacks and water for children during the drive.
Pahalgam: Betaab Valley, Aru & Chandanwari
Spend the day exploring Pahalgam — visit iconic spots like Betaab Valley, Aru Valley, and Chandanwari. Enjoy easy walks along pine-lined trails, riverside picnics, and optional pony rides for shorter treks. This day is flexible to suit family energy levels with plenty of photo stops and relaxing spots.
Note: Many attractions have short walks from the parking points; guide/porter services are available for families needing assistance.
Return to Srinagar & Local Shopping
After breakfast, check out and drive back to Srinagar. On arrival, visit the local markets for Kashmiri handicrafts, pashmina shawls, and spices. Optionally visit Hazratbal Shrine or explore other local attractions not covered earlier. Return to hotel/houseboat for a relaxed evening.
Shopping tip: Bargain gently at local markets; inspect pashmina quality and ask for certificate where applicable.
Departure from Srinagar
After breakfast check out and transfer to Srinagar Airport/Railway station for your onward journey. If time permits, enjoy a final lakeside walk or a short market visit.
