Kashmir tours from Rajkot
The Rajkot to Kashmir trip, planned around your dates
The airport at Hirasar has widened the options, but Kashmir still means one change in Mumbai or Delhi. Saurashtra summer is brutal from April, so most families here travel in May or June, and five nights is the usual length.
Fly HSR with one change in Mumbai or Delhi, or drive to Ahmedabad for a wider choice of connections. A morning landing leaves the afternoon free for Dal Lake, so a tour from Rajkot puts the Shikara hour on day one instead of the last morning.
May and June are the Rajkot window, when the valley is twenty degrees cooler than Saurashtra, and the Diwali break is the second. 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 Rajkot plan and send a written quote before you pay.

Travel guide
Getting from Rajkot to Kashmir
How the journey works from Rajkot, and the months that make it worth the trip.
How to reach Kashmir from Rajkot
AirFly Rajkot to Srinagar
Fly HSR with one change in Mumbai or Delhi, or drive to Ahmedabad for a wider choice of connections.
- Journey
- about 5 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 Rajkot reach Jammu Tawi, the railhead for the valley. From Jammu the road climbs through Udhampur and the Banihal tunnel into Srinagar.
- Journey
- About about 32 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 Rajkot
A private car from Rajkot 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
Plan at least one full driving day each way and ask us to check tunnel and Mughal Road conditions closer to departure.
Best time to visit Kashmir from Rajkot
- March – MayBlossom and tulips
Almond blossom opens in early March and the tulip garden runs through April. For travellers from Rajkot 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 Rajkot 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. Rajkot 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 Rajkot group chasing snow should keep one flexible day in the plan.
FAQs
Kashmir tours from Rajkot: questions travellers ask
How do I reach Kashmir from Rajkot?
The straightforward route is a flight from Rajkot International Airport, Hirasar (HSR) to Srinagar (SXR), with one stop through Mumbai or Delhi; expect about 5 hours with one stop in the air. If you would rather not fly, trains reach Jammu Tawi in about about 32 hours, then a 270 km road transfer follows.
Is 5 days enough for Kashmir from Rajkot?
The practical minimum from Rajkot 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 Rajkot cost?
Published starting rates here run ₹15,500 to ₹25,000 per person on twin sharing. Flights from Rajkot International Airport, Hirasar (HSR) are quoted separately unless the confirmation includes them, and the total becomes final once the hotels and the vehicle are named in writing.
How do we get from Rajkot to Kashmir?
Fly Hirasar to Mumbai or Delhi and connect to Srinagar, about five hours of flying in total. Driving to Ahmedabad for a wider choice of connections is worth pricing too.
Can children travel on a Kashmir package from Rajkot?
It works well for families from Rajkot 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 Rajkot?
The valley has four usable seasons: blossom and tulips in March to May, summer from June to August, autumn colour in September and October, and snow from December to February. Rajkot travellers usually pick summer for family holidays and January for snow.
How many days does a Rajkot family need?
Five, usually: two Srinagar nights with a houseboat, one in Gulmarg, one in Pahalgam and the travel day. Add a night if you want Sonmarg as well.
What is included in the Kashmir packages from Rajkot?
The package price covers the stay, the private vehicle and the listed sightseeing. Flights or trains from Rajkot, 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.
