Questions travellers ask
How do I plan a first trip to Kashmir?
Choose the season, decide how many nights you have and pick three or four places in a loop from Srinagar. We then suggest hotels, a vehicle and a day plan with a spare day for weather.
How many days do I need for Kashmir?
Five to seven days covers Srinagar, Gulmarg and Pahalgam at a relaxed pace. A long weekend works for Srinagar and Gulmarg alone.
What is the best way to get around?
A private car with a driver is the easiest and safest for most travellers, especially families and in winter. Shared transport suits solo travellers on a budget.
Do I need permits or ID?
Carry government photo ID for every traveller. Some border areas and Ladakh routes need extra permits, which we confirm for your dates.
Can you plan the whole trip?
Yes. We arrange hotels, vehicles and day plans, confirm them in writing and tell you what is included and what you pay separately.
