Some helpful tips for Tourists Visiting Kashmir
1. Accommodation in the quaint houseboats of Kashmir is purely for the experience. Unlike hotels, houseboats are faced with certain limitations such as lack of transportation between the houseboat and land, limited food menu, intermittent power supply and water supply, etc.
2. In Gulmarg, the horseman union does not allow any vehicle to drop or pick up guests at/from the gondola. All sightseeing tours are also prohibited by the union.
3. Aru Valley, Chandanwari and Betaab Valley at Pahalgam are not part of the itinerary (unless included) due to restrictions by the local transport union.
4. You have an hour each to enjoy the picturesque snow-clad mountains and the green valleys of Aru Valley, Betab Valley and Chandanwadi in Pahalgam. If you wish to spend more time exploring these areas, you would have to pay the applicable additional amount to the driver/taxi union.
5. Only vehicles allotted by the Local Unions of Pahalgam and Sonmarg can be used for sightseeing in the regions, and may not be as per the usual standards in other parts of India.
6. During winter, the road to Sonmarg remains closed and vehicles can only go up to Gagangir.
7. For Sonmarg sightseeing, our vehicle will take the guest to the Sonmarg taxi stand. From there, the guest needs to hire a pony/local union cab for sightseeing. Thajwas Glacier, Zero Point at Sonmarg are not included in the tour, due to restrictions laid down by the local union.
8. Due to a ban on new construction in Gulmarg, Pahalgam, and a few areas of Srinagar such as Dal Lake and Boulevard Road, some hotels may appear to be in a dilapidated state. Rest assured, these hotels provide excellent facilities and hospitality.
