Arrive early morning at Jammu and transfer directly to Katra. Check into your hotel and immediately begin your procession toward the Vaishno Devi Darshan. On your spiritual ascent, it is recommended to take a halt at Adhkwari Temple. A visit to the Baba Bhaironath Temple, situated on the top of the hill, typically requires a pony ride or travel by foot. Along your hike, you can take comfortable halts for refreshments at the numerous shacks and food joints. Seek blessings at the sacred Mata Vaishno Devi temple and fully immerse yourself in the spiritual environment. After the darshan, begin your trek down, reaching your hotel late at night for a well-deserved overnight stay.
Day 2: Katra to Pahalgam | Village of Shepherds (Pahalgam)
Enjoy a delightful breakfast before checking out and beginning the drive to Pahalgam, often called the 'Village of Shepherds'. This astounding site is celebrated as one of the country's best health resorts, attracting tourists with its vast meadows, refreshing pine forests, and favourable climate. The glistening Lidder River flows gently through the area, which, coupled with the enthralling picturesque beauty, explains why so many Bollywood movies are shot here. Reach Pahalgam, check into your hotel, and indulge in a tasty dinner before your overnight stay.
Day 3: Pahalgam to Sonmarg | Meadow of Gold (Sonamarg)

Next, move on to visit the Shankaracharya Hill Temple, a sacred site dedicated to Lord Shiva. A tour of the famous Mughal Gardens follows, where you will explore the beautiful Shalimar Bagh, Chashme Shahi, and Nishat Bagh. After a day full of captivating sights, get back to your traditional houseboat on Dal Lake for an overnight stay.
Day 6: Srinagar | The Heart of Kashmir Valley (Srinagar)
After breakfast, transfer from your houseboat to your Srinagar Hotel. Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir, is situated on the banks of the river Jhelum. Its awe-inspiring landscape, magnificent architecture, tombs and temples, exquisite gardens, and Dal Lake truly make it a heaven on earth. Surrounded by a number of lakes, this scenic city is also known as the Kashmiri Venice or the Venice of the East. After a jaunt to the astonishing sites of Srinagar, treat yourselves by indulging in some shopping at the bustling Lal Chowk. Here, you can buy locally produced products, such as leather goods, embroidered mats and carpets, antique jewellery, and the highly demanded Pashmina shawls. Later, proceed to experience a soothing second Shikara ride on Dal Lake, capturing the sight of its ever-charming beauty and floating market. Proceed toward your hotel, followed by a hearty dinner, and enjoy a pleasurable overnight stay.
