From the shimmering waters of Dal Lake to the snow-dusted meadows of Gulmarg — Kashmir is not just a place, it's an emotion.
Spring (March–May) for Tulip Festival. Summer (June–August) for trekking and green valleys. Autumn (Sep–Nov) for golden chinar foliage. Winter (Dec–Feb) for snow and skiing in Gulmarg.
Prepaid SIMs from other states do not work in J&K. Purchase a local tourist SIM at the airport. Airtel, Jio, and BSNL postpaid cards work well across Srinagar, Gulmarg, and Pahalgam.
Kashmir is very safe for tourists with a near-zero crime rate for visitors. The hospitality here is legendary. Our guides and drivers are locally trusted and vetted by the tourism board.
Summer: light layers plus a fleece for evenings. Winter: heavy woolens, thermal wear, waterproof shoes. Monsoon is largely dry in Kashmir unlike the rest of India — a bonus for travellers.
