Day by day
The whole itinerary, nothing withheld.
- 1
Arrive Srinagar · private shikara at golden hour
Airport pickup, flowers and a room upgrade where the hotel allows. Late-afternoon private shikara — just the two of you and the boatman — through the lotus channels behind Nehru Park.
Premium hotel, SrinagarDinner - 2
Gulmarg · gondola and the meadow
Up to Gulmarg for the night. Gondola to Apharwat, then a walk out to the far side of the meadow where the day crowds do not reach. Dinner at the hotel.
Premium hotel, GulmargBreakfast, dinner - 3
Pahalgam · the Lidder valley
Scenic drive to Pahalgam with a saffron-field stop. Afternoon in Betaab and Aru, then an evening walk along the river. Pahalgam after dark is very quiet, which is the point.
Premium hotel, PahalgamBreakfast, dinner - 4
A slow day in Pahalgam
Deliberately unscheduled. Ride up to Chandanwari, walk the pine trails, or stay in with the mountains through the window. Optional in-room spa treatment on request.

Back to Srinagar and onto a premium houseboat. Private candlelit dinner served on the verandah, cake arranged, lake going still around you.

Before you book
Questions on this itinerary.
How is this different from the Classic Kashmir package?
Better room categories throughout, overnight stays in Gulmarg and Pahalgam instead of day trips, a private rather than shared shikara, a slow day built into Pahalgam, and the candlelit dinner. The route is similar; the pace and the rooms are not.
Do you need our wedding date or proof?
No proof needed. Just tell us it is a honeymoon at booking and we will pass the note to the hotels — most will do something on their own initiative.
Can we extend with Sonmarg or a Ladakh leg?
Yes to both. Sonmarg adds a night from Srinagar. Ladakh needs at least four more nights and is best from June to September.
