Kashmir tours from Gujarat
The Gujarat to Kashmir trip, planned around your dates
Gujarat sends us more summer bookings than any other state, and for an obvious reason: when Ahmedabad, Surat and Rajkot cross 40°C, Srinagar is in the twenties. The departure airport changes with the city, but the logic of the trip does not, and this page covers all four.
Fly from AMD, STV, BDQ or RAJ with one change in Delhi or Mumbai, or take the train to Jammu Tawi and drive up. Landing times decide the shape of day one for a tour from Gujarat: we either head straight to the lake or hold the first night close to the airport road.
June to August is the Gujarat window, and the Diwali break in late October or November is the other one, when the chinars turn and hotel rates have softened. The tour itineraries below are starting structures, not fixed departures: tell us your dates, your group and whether you want a houseboat night, a lake-view room or a Katra stop, and we rebuild the Gujarat plan and send a written quote before you pay.

Travel guide
Getting from Gujarat to Kashmir
Two ways to make the journey from Gujarat, and when the valley is at its best.
How to reach Kashmir from Gujarat
AirFly Gujarat to Srinagar
Fly from AMD, STV, BDQ or RAJ with one change in Delhi or Mumbai, or take the train to Jammu Tawi and drive up.
- Journey
- about 4 to 6 hours with one stop
- Best for
- Trips of 5 to 8 days
We plan the first night around your landing time, so nobody is driving to Gulmarg after a long flight.
TrainTrain to Jammu Tawi, then the valley road
Trains from Gujarat reach Jammu Tawi, the railhead for the valley. From Jammu the road climbs through Udhampur and the Banihal tunnel into Srinagar.
- Journey
- About about 30 hours, then a 270 km drive
- Best for
- Travellers who would rather not fly
We can pick you up at Jammu Tawi and break the drive at Patnitop if you want a softer first day.
RoadDrive from Gujarat
A private car from Gujarat runs north before the final climb through Udhampur and the Banihal tunnel into the valley.
- Journey
- Three driving days each way
- Best for
- Long holidays with stops on the way
If you drive, we can book the overnight stops and keep the Srinagar hotel flexible for a late arrival.
Best time to visit Kashmir from Gujarat
- March – MayBlossom and tulips
Almond blossom opens in early March and the tulip garden runs through April. For travellers from Gujarat 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 Gujarat 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. Gujarat 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 Gujarat group chasing snow should keep one flexible day in the plan.
FAQs
Kashmir tours from Gujarat: questions travellers ask
How do I get from Gujarat to Srinagar?
Most travellers from Gujarat fly Ahmedabad (AMD), Surat (STV), Vadodara (BDQ) and Rajkot (RAJ) to Srinagar (SXR). one stop through Delhi or Mumbai from any Gujarat airport, and the flying time is about 4 to 6 hours with one stop. If you would rather not fly, trains reach Jammu Tawi in about about 30 hours, then a 270 km road transfer follows.
Is 5 days enough for Kashmir from Gujarat?
The practical minimum from Gujarat is four nights, which is Srinagar, Gulmarg and Pahalgam at a sane pace. Give it 4 to 8 days if you can, because the drive days are the part people from the plains underestimate. Itineraries here run 5 to 8 days.
How much does a Kashmir trip from Gujarat cost?
Budget on a starting rate between ₹15,500 and ₹25,000 per person, twin sharing, before flights from Gujarat. Longer itineraries and higher hotel categories move the number up; the quote we send names every hotel and inclusion in writing.
Which Gujarat airport has the best connections to Kashmir?
Ahmedabad (AMD) has the most options, usually with one change in Delhi or Mumbai. Surat, Vadodara and Rajkot all work, but the connection is longer, so the day is planned around it.
Is Kashmir safe for families travelling from Gujarat?
It works well for families from Gujarat as long as the drive days stay short. We build the trip around a houseboat night, the gondola in Gulmarg and one relaxed day in Srinagar, and we keep the road legs in daylight.
What is the best season for a Kashmir tour from Gujarat?
March to May is the blossom and tulip window, June to August is the cool summer escape, September and October are the quiet colour months, and December to February is snow in Gulmarg. From Gujarat the flight is the same all year — the season decides the packing, not the route.
How many nights do Gujarat families usually book?
Five or six on average: two in Srinagar with a houseboat night, one in Gulmarg, one in Pahalgam and a travel day. Three-night breaks work from Ahmedabad because the flight is only a little longer than a domestic hop.
Are flights from Gujarat included in the package price?
Each package page lists its own hotels, vehicle, meals and sightseeing. Air or rail tickets from Gujarat, entry tickets, gondola rides, pony hire and anything marked optional are quoted separately, and all of it is confirmed in writing before you pay.
