Kashmir tours from Aurangabad
What a Kashmir holiday from Aurangabad actually looks like
Aurangabad flies north the long way: nearly every itinerary runs through Delhi or Mumbai, and that connection, not the distance, decides how day one looks in Srinagar. Marathwada travellers also move in groups, so we quote seats, rooms and the vehicle together for the whole party.
Departures use Aurangabad (IXU) with one change in Delhi or Mumbai, or the drive to Mumbai for the nonstop into Srinagar. Landing times decide the shape of day one for a tour from Aurangabad: we either head straight to the lake or hold the first night close to the airport road.
The Ajanta and Ellora season at home is dry and hot, and those same weeks are the best argument for heading north: June to August in Srinagar is twenty degrees cooler than Marathwada. Nothing on this Aurangabad page is a fixed departure. Give us your dates and the group size and we return a written tour plan with the hotel names, the vehicle and the inclusions, so you can compare before you commit.

If your dates are fixed, tell us early — the nonstop seats go first in the summer and snow season.
TrainTrain to Jammu Tawi, then the valley road

Best time to visit Kashmir from Aurangabad
- March – MayBlossom and tulips
Almond blossom opens in early March and the tulip garden runs through April. For travellers from Aurangabad this is the window with the mildest days at both ends of the journey — no heat on the plains, no snow on the pass.
- June – AugustSummer escape
June to August is why most Aurangabad families book: the plains are at their hottest while Srinagar sits in the high twenties, so a houseboat night and a Gulmarg meadow day do the work of an air conditioner.
- September – OctoberAutumn colour
The chinars turn copper, the summer rush thins and hotel rates soften. Aurangabad travellers who can move their dates usually get the best value of the year in this window.
- December – FebruarySnow in Gulmarg
Gulmarg holds snow from late December into February and the gondola runs over it. Srinagar is cold but usually clear, and a Aurangabad group chasing snow should keep one flexible day in the plan.
FAQs
Aurangabad to Kashmir: practical questions, answered
What is the best way to travel from Aurangabad to Kashmir?
Fly from Aurangabad Airport, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (IXU) to Srinagar (SXR): one stop through Delhi or Mumbai, or the drive to Mumbai for the nonstop. The flight itself is about 4h 30m with one stop. If you would rather not fly, trains reach Jammu Tawi in about about 34 hours, then a 270 km road transfer follows.
How many days do I need for a Kashmir trip from Aurangabad?
Count the travel days from Aurangabad first: once you are in the valley, 5 days covers the three main resorts and 8 days leaves room for Sonamarg, a slow lake morning or a Katra night. The cards below cover that full range.
What is the starting price of a Kashmir package from Aurangabad?
Published starting rates here run ₹15,500 to ₹25,000 per person on twin sharing. Flights from Aurangabad Airport, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (IXU) are quoted separately unless the confirmation includes them, and the total becomes final once the hotels and the vehicle are named in writing.
Is it quicker to fly from Aurangabad or drive to Mumbai for the flight?
Usually Mumbai. The expressway drive is about five hours, but the nonstop from BOM lands in Srinagar in under three. We compare both for your dates and quote the one that actually saves time.
Is a Kashmir tour from Aurangabad suitable for families?
Yes — a Aurangabad family usually takes the five- or six-night itinerary, with a houseboat night, the Gulmarg gondola and shorter drives between resorts. Send us the children’s ages and we will pace the days around them.
When is the best time to visit Kashmir from Aurangabad?
It depends what you want to see. Blossom and tulips run March to May, the meadows are green and cool from June to August, the chinars turn in September and October, and Gulmarg holds snow from late December into February. From Aurangabad the flight routing does not change with the season — only the packing does.

Yes. Give us the headcount and we book the seats, the rooms and the vehicle together, with the group rate and every inclusion listed in a single written quote.
What is included in the Kashmir packages from Aurangabad?
The package price covers the stay, the private vehicle and the listed sightseeing. Flights or trains from Aurangabad, entry fees, the Gulmarg gondola, pony hire and optional extras sit outside it unless your confirmation lists them, and the written quote settles that before payment.
