Kashmir Tour Package
Kashmir is the classic Indian holiday: a night on a Dal Lake houseboat, a shikara ride at sunset, the Gulmarg gondola and the pine valleys of Pahalgam. Most families do it in five or six nights from Srinagar, and the trip works in every season — tulips and green meadows in spring, snow from December.
