Package Details
A vacation to this paradise on earth, Kashmir, is an epic expedition through the Himalayas away from routine life, soul filled adventures, and the ridiculously pretty Dal Lake that will rejuvenate the family bond like never before. Sail through the unique lifestyle of the Dal Lake, where the Shikaras meander, the lavish houseboats lie still, and the colorful markets float over the rippling water.
Mark your way through the vast meadows of Pahalgam and feel the countryside on the pony ride as you pass along the verdant pastures and calming glaciers. Live the frozen moments on a spine-chilling gondola ride, a thousand feet above the snow-covered mountains and pine trees at the heartland of winter sports in Gulmarg. Conclude by taking a postcard-perfect family picture in traditional Kashmiri attire to treasure the memories for life.
