6 Days Kashmir Tour Package from Bangalore
Tour overview
This 6 day Kashmir tour package from Bangalore covers the four names every traveller hopes to see in the valley: Srinagar, Pahalgam, Gulmarg and Sonamarg. You take a morning flight to Srinagar and begin with a shikara ride on Dal Lake, then spend three full days on excursions, returning to your Srinagar hotel each evening.
Pahalgam, the Valley of Shepherds, comes with stops at the Awantipora ruins and the Pampore saffron fields. In Gulmarg you can ride the Gondola up to Kongdori and the Apharwat range at your own cost, and in Sonamarg, the Meadow of Gold and gateway to Ladakh, a horse ride leads to Thajiwas Glacier. The last full day covers Nishat Garden, Shalimar Garden, Chashme Shahi, the Shankaracharya Temple and, between 15 March and 15 April, the Tulip Garden.
You travel in a 2×2 push-back AC bus with a dedicated tour manager, stay in deluxe twin-sharing rooms and eat vegetarian food cooked in South Indian style by trained cooks, all arranged by our Bengaluru team. Call or WhatsApp +91 973 973 1964 to pick a departure.
