Kashmir Tour Package from Delhi by Bus 2026–27

Board an overnight Volvo coach in Delhi, wake up on the road to the valley and spend your days on Dal Lake, in Gulmarg and Pahalgam.

Kashmir tour package from Delhi by bus: what you get

A Delhi to Kashmir bus package combines the coach journey with hotels and sightseeing in one booking. Instead of arranging seats, cabs and hotels separately, you deal with one Srinagar-based team that stays in touch from the day you book to the day you return.

The road from Delhi to Srinagar runs roughly 850 to 880 km along NH44 via Ambala, Jalandhar, Pathankot, Jammu, Udhampur, Ramban and the Banihal tunnel. A coach usually needs about 16 to 20 hours, depending on traffic, meal stops and road conditions.

Boarding point, departure day, seat type and fare are confirmed when you book, because they depend on the date and the coach operating on it. Heavy rain, landslides or snow can close or slow the highway, mainly between December and February and during the monsoon, so keep a day of buffer.

Practical tips for the bus journey

Day coach or night coach?

Most guests prefer the night coach because it saves a hotel night. Light sleepers should carry an eye mask and a neck pillow.

Seats and luggage

Carry one main bag and one hand bag per person. Tell us in advance if you travel with children, elders or extra luggage.

In Kashmir

From Srinagar everything is by private cab with a local driver. See Kashmir cab booking.

Is the Delhi to Kashmir bus right for you?

The coach suits travellers who want a single-booking holiday on a moderate budget and do not mind a long overnight journey. If time is short, flying is faster; if you want to see the Pir Panjal and Jammu foothills, the highway is rewarding.
