Where we'll take you
From the lakes of Srinagar to the high passes of Ladakh — here's what makes each place special.
Srinagar
The heart of the valley, built around the famous Dal Lake. Stay on a houseboat, glide on a shikara, and stroll the Mughal Gardens — Nishat, Shalimar and Chashme Shahi. Don't miss the old city, Hazratbal shrine and the handicraft markets for Pashmina and walnut wood.

Gulmarg
A high-altitude meadow famous for the Gulmarg Gondola — one of the highest cable cars in the world — climbing toward Apharwat peak. Green and flowering in summer, a snow playground in winter, it's one of Kashmir's most loved spots.

Pahalgam
Where the Lidder river runs through pine-clad valleys. The base for Betaab Valley and Aru Valley — both impossibly scenic — plus Chandanwari and the meadow of Baisaran, often called "mini Switzerland." A favourite for nature lovers and honeymooners.

Sonmarg
A golden meadow ringed by snow peaks and glaciers, on the route toward Ladakh. The Thajiwas Glacier is the highlight — reachable by a short pony ride — with snow points that stay white well into summer.

Leh Ladakh
A high-altitude desert of stark mountains, turquoise lakes and ancient monasteries. Cross Khardung La into the Nubra Valley with its dunes and camels, camp beside the surreal blue of Pangong Lake, and visit the monasteries around Leh.
