Prices vary with the month, hotel category and group size, so ask for a written quote before you decide.

More travellers sharing a vehicle usually lowers the per-person price.
Vehicle
Check the vehicle type in the inclusions; our listed packages state it.
Activities
Optional activities are excluded – skip what you do not need to stay within budget.
Based on the inclusions and exclusions printed on our package pages. Always check the individual package for the exact list.
There is no single best month – it depends on whether you want flowers, green valleys, autumn colours or snow.
March – April
Spring brings blossoms and Srinagar’s tulip season. Tulip Garden opening dates depend on the bloom and local announcements, so confirm before fixing dates.
May – June
Green valleys and comfortable days in Pahalgam, Sonmarg and Gulmarg. Popular with families and couples, so hotels fill early.
July – August
Lush meadows, with more rain and heavier traffic on some routes. Keep a time buffer and check road conditions before you travel.
September – October
Clear days, softer crowds and the first autumn colours – a good period for couples and photographers.
November – February
Winter: cold weather and the best chance of snow in Gulmarg, though snowfall can never be promised for a particular date.
By air: Srinagar Airport is the easiest arrival point; we plan pick-up around your flight timings. In winter keep a reasonable buffer in case weather affects flights.
By train and road: A Vande Bharat train connects Katra and Srinagar and was extended to Jammu Tawi in 2026. Timetables can change, so check IRCTC before you book. We can also arrange a cab from Jammu or Katra – see Kashmir cab booking.
Travel conditions in Jammu and Kashmir can change, so check the latest advisory from the Indian government and your own country, along with airline and weather updates, before you book. Follow local authorities’ instructions and keep a buffer in your plan. We will tell you plainly what we know about the route and season you have in mind.

Confirm your package
Once itinerary and price are clear, confirm as per our payment terms. Keep your final itinerary and hotel details handy.
The cost of a Kashmir tour package generally starts from ₹6,000 per person and can go up to ₹40,000 or more per person, depending on the travel requirements.
The final price depends on the number of days, number of travellers, travel season, hotel category, transportation, meal plan, and destinations included in your itinerary. Standard, Deluxe, Super Deluxe, and Premium packages are available to suit different budgets (see our budget tours and all Kashmir holiday packages).
For example, travellers looking for a budget-friendly holiday may choose standard accommodation, while honeymoon couples may prefer premium hotels or a luxury houseboat on Nigeen Lake.
At Acme Tour & Travels, we recommend comparing the complete package inclusions rather than choosing an option based on price alone. Our guide on how much a Kashmir trip will cost explains the cost breakdown in detail.
Extra expenses depend on the selected package and itinerary. Common examples include:
We recommend asking for a written quotation that clearly separates included services from optional expenses.
It is also sensible to keep approximately 10–15% of your planned trip budget aside for unforeseen expenses. This is a budgeting suggestion, not a mandatory fee.
Our standard package inclusions generally cover:
Some packages may also include a Shikara ride or other specified activities. Inclusions vary by quotation, so we provide the details before confirmation.
Gondola tickets, pony rides, local union taxis, entrance tickets, optional activities, shopping, and sightseeing outside the agreed itinerary may cost extra unless specifically included in writing.
We can also arrange accommodation-only, transport-only (see Kashmir car rental with driver), or customised packages according to your requirements.
We recommend booking in advance, particularly during summer holidays, the tulip season, New Year, and other busy travel periods.
Advance planning gives you a better opportunity to compare accommodation, confirm suitable rooms and vehicles, and organise your preferred itinerary. Availability and rates can change as demand increases.
We have helped travellers who arrived in Kashmir without confirmed hotel and cab arrangements and then struggled to find suitable options at reasonable prices.
For this reason, we recommend confirming your accommodation and transport before departure rather than relying entirely on last-minute arrangements. You can contact our Srinagar team to start planning.
Yes. At Acme Tour & Travels, we can customise your Kashmir package according to your budget, travel dates, group size, preferred hotels, vehicle requirements, and sightseeing interests.
You can request a family holiday, honeymoon package, budget trip, luxury experience, or itinerary that includes offbeat destinations.
We can also adjust the number of nights spent in Srinagar, Gulmarg, and Pahalgam to make the trip more comfortable. Customisation depends on availability, road conditions, and the feasibility of your requested itinerary.
