Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the 5N/6D package?
The 4N/5D covers all four destinations efficiently. The 5N/6D adds an extra day and a traditional houseboat night for a more relaxed pace.
What is the best time to visit?
March to October is ideal — tulips in April-May, lush greenery in summer. Winter brings snow to Gulmarg. We will advise based on your dates.
What's the difference between the three tiers?
Same route and sightseeing. Silver is 3-star + sedan, Gold is 4-star + SUV, Diamond is 5-star/luxury + private premium SUV.
Can the itinerary be customised?
Absolutely — we can add a houseboat night, change hotels or adjust the pace. Tell us what you would like.
