Kashmir
Shikara mornings, gondola afternoons, kahwa all day
Why Kashmir
Paradise, paced right. Kashmir works for absolutely everyone — grandparents, toddlers, honeymooners and photographers — because the beauty here is roadside, not earned by trekking. Our trips centre on a cedar houseboat night on Dal Lake, the Apharwat gondola at Gulmarg, the Lidder valley at Pahalgam, and the quieter milk-meadows of Doodhpathri that most operators skip. For the fitter crowd we also run the Great Lakes trek.
