Glorious Kashmir (5N/6D)
Description
The Glorious Kashmir tour is the perfect introduction to the most beautiful valley in the Himalayas — a thoughtfully designed 5-night, 6-day Kashmir tour package by Indian Inspire Journey that captures the essence of the region in a single, well-paced journey. From the lakes and gardens of Srinagar to the glacier meadows of Sonmarg and the pine valleys of Pahalgam, this itinerary distils Kashmir's greatest landscapes into six unforgettable days.
Srinagar anchors the journey with three nights — enough time for the Mughal Gardens, a sunset shikara ride on Dal Lake, the old city's wooden mosques and spice markets, and a full- day excursion to Gulmarg with its famous Himalayan gondola. Few cities anywhere combine natural beauty and living heritage the way Srinagar does.
From there, the tour climbs to Sonmarg — the "Meadow of Gold" — where the Thajiwas Glacier descends almost to the roadside and alpine scenery unfolds in every direction. The final night belongs to Pahalgam, the gentle "Valley of the Shepherds," where the Lidder River rushes past pine forests and saffron fields line the drive.
Ideal for first-time visitors to Kashmir from the UK, USA, and Australia, this tour is fully private, fully guided, and fully customisable. Indian Inspire Journey's local Kashmir team handles every transfer, hotel, and experience so you can simply immerse yourself in the valley the Mughal emperors called paradise.
