Srinagar — 3 Nights / 4 Days Tour
Jammu & Kashmir · Lake city — Dal Lake and the Mughal gardens are the reason to come, and a houseboat night is the version of Srinagar people remember. The shikara ride at dawn — when the floating vegetable market operates and the lake is still — is genuinely different from the same ride at four in the afternoon. Two nights covers the city and the gardens; three lets you use Srinagar as the base for Gulmarg or Pahalgam as day trips rather than moving hotels. Autumn, when the chinars turn, is the most beautiful and least booked season. This 3-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.
