Sightseeing in and around Srinagar takes in the beautiful Hazratbal mosque, where the famous relic of the repository of a single hair of the prophet Mohammed is found, and exhibited on certain days of the year. We explore the old city and visit the beautiful Mughal gardens, a legacy of the Mughals' great love for Kashmir.

Day 05 Srinagar - Leh
We board our short flight to Leh, and settle into your hotel on arrival.

Day 06 - 07 Leh
Two days are spent sightseeing in and around Leh, the capital of Ladakh, which is nestled in a valley just north of the Indus. We visit some of the Buddhist gompas here, including the Namgyal Tsemo Gompa, built in 1430, which contains a fabulous three-storey-high image of the Buddha, as well as many ancient manuscripts and frescoes. Above lies the ruined fort, from which spectacular views of Leh, blooming amidst a fluttering of brightly coloured prayer flags, can be enjoyed. Several nearby villages with fascinating Buddhist history lie within easy walking distance, whilst within Leh a vibrant culture of colourful bazaar shops and stalls thrives.

Day 08 Leh - Srinagar
We transfer to the airport for our flight back to Srinagar. On arrival, you relax on your houseboat.

Day 09 Srinagar
The day is at leisure in Srinagar, to rest after the trek or to explore the city and shop for famous Kashmiri handicrafts. A marvellously lazy day can be spent lounging on a Shikara boat, exploring the narrow waterways of the lake.

Day 10 Gulmarg
We take a day trip to Gulmarg, one of the most stunning hill resorts in teh country. The journey itself is fantastic - a rich collage of shadowy poplar avenues giving way to rice fields dotted with tiny villages, that in turn give way to fir-covered hillsides with mountains soaring overhead. In summer, Gulmarg is a paradise for golfing (the highest green course in the world is found here at an altitude of 2650m), fishing, walking and horse-riding. In the winter, it becomes a fantastic playground for winter sports, especially skiing.

Day 11 Pahalgam

Day trip to Pahalgam by car. Situated 2130m up at the confluence of the streams flowing from Sheshnag Lake and the Lidder River, Pahalgam was once a humble shepherd's village with breathtaking views. Now it is Kashmir's premier resort, deliciously cool even in the height of summer, and a wonderful day is spent exploring the natural pine forests and enjoying nature's splendor.

Rajghat, Delhi TravelsWe transfer to the airport for your flight back to Delhi. On arrival you settle into your hotel and are at leisure for the remainder of the day.

Day 13 Agra

Day 14 Delhi
The tree-lined boulevards of New Delhi seem startlingly spacious, having explored Old Delhi earlier in the tour. We stop for lunch in Connaught Place, which houses many famous restaurants with a good choice of different cuisine. After lunch we start our tour of New Delhi at the enchanting Laxmi Narayan Temple, and take a drive past The Presidents House to India Gate. We spend time enjoying the peace and tranquillity of Humayan's Tomb, and marvelling at the Bhai Temple (a perfect lotus-shaped temple) and Qutab Minar. The evening is spent at your leisure.
