Destination Overview
Often called Paradise on Earth, Kashmir offers some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world — pine-covered valleys, snow-capped peaks, mirror-like lakes, and timeless Mughal gardens. This 6-day journey covers the highlights of Srinagar, the meadows of Gulmarg, and the river-side serenity of Pahalgam, with a comfortable houseboat stay that has been a tradition on Dal Lake for over a century.
