Kashmir Honeymoon Special — 5N/6D
Overview
Six days built for two: a houseboat night on Dal Lake, Gulmarg's snowline, the glacier valley of Sonamarg and a night by the river in Pahalgam. Kashmir is one of India's most romantic destinations, and this route shows it without long drives — Srinagar is the base for the day trips, so you unpack once there.

- Sonamarg and the Thajiwas Glacier
- Gulmarg's meadows and the Gondola option
- A night in Pahalgam along the Lidder river
- Mughal gardens of Srinagar
- Private cab throughout
