The word Kashmir is derived from the Sanskrit word Kashmira. Kashmir is truly known as Heaven on earth with its alpine peaks and snow clad mountains. Kashmir has little of everything to offer to its visitors from unbelievably beautiful landscape, valley of flowers, serene lakes and amazing trekking trails. Looking to explore Kashmir on your next trip…here is a complete package for you.
Your Kashmir tour starts right from your arrival at Srinagar, the capital city of Kashmir. On arrival at the airport our representative meets you and transfers you to the pre-booked houseboat. Freshen up and relax and in the evening enjoy Shikara ride on Dal Lake to witness the marvelous beauty of the nature and the splendor of the sun-set painting the valley with its magical color, simply beyond scope of words to describe.

EXCELLENT 149 reviews Sourabh19 December 2024 Triund Trek Amazing experience. In addition to the mesmerizing views, all facilities at Camp Leta were excellent. Mr.Manu and Mr.Keval were a great help. Scott A28 November 2024 Trip of a life time We had the most amazing time with Manu Adventures. We went as a family of four, and our kids (8 and 10) had an incredible time. We did a 4 day and 3 night trek and Manu Adventures thought of everything. Our guide Ranu was lovely, keeping us informed, safe, and comfortable. When we arrived at our destination each day the tents were already set up and we were greeted with hot chocolate and honey/ginger lemon tea. The food was fabulous and they were able to easily accommodate a vegetarian diet and food our children would like. The trek was gorgeous, peaceful forest and amazing mountain views. It was the trip of a life time and we couldn't have been happier. Gianna R27 November 2024 Amazing experience!! My 4 friends and I had such an amazing time on this trek! The itinerary for ours was ~3000 meters up in 9km the first day, then trek 1/2 way down the second day, and all the way down the next morning! Manu was very helpful and attentive! He also had an amazing guide for us! When we flew in there was a driver to pick us up and take us to the Manu Adventures office. We then unpacked some of our heavy luggage and started the trek! The food was amazing and we were warm in our tents with the correct clothing. Make sure to bring layers as it gets pretty cold at night! Just as a heads up, the way up is relatively steep, so be sure your legs are in proper shape, and the way down can be rough on the knees. The views are so worth it! surbhi s24 November 2024 Great service Very Safe for female travellers and well managed camp site. Very friendly, polite and. Helpful. Loved the food provided.

J J19 November 2024 Great guiding by Ragu' on the Triund loop today. A bit of a tough start of the ascent but soon got more comfortable throughout and felt very well looked after by this absolute gentleman. Stunning route and was blessed with great weather too; highly recommended and always a good sign to see government issue certification in the office which is in date. Absolutely going to be my first port of call for guiding when I return to the region. Thanks gents 🙏 JLoad more
The best times to visit India generally fall between October to March, when the weather is cooler and more pleasant for traveling. However, the ideal time may vary based on the region you plan to visit.
India offers various modes of transportation, including domestic flights, trains, buses, and taxis. The Indian Railways is a popular choice for long distances, while local buses and auto-rickshaws are commonly used for short trips within cities.
Traveling in India is generally safe for tourists. However, it is advisable to stay vigilant, follow local guidelines, and take standard safety precautions, such as avoiding isolated areas at night and securing your belongings.
Train tickets can be booked online through the Indian Railways website or through various travel booking platforms. It is recommended to book tickets in advance, especially during peak travel seasons.
To fully experience Indian cuisine, consider dining at local restaurants, trying street food, and participating in cooking classes. Each region has its unique dishes, so be adventurous and explore the local flavors.
Hiring a local guide can enhance your travel experience by providing insights into local culture, history, and attractions. It is especially beneficial in cities with rich heritage and complex histories.
It is important to respect local customs and traditions. Dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites, and be mindful of local practices, such as removing shoes before entering homes or temples.
Before traveling to India, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional regarding vaccinations and health precautions. Carry a basic first aid kit and be cautious with drinking water and street food.
Credit cards are widely accepted in urban areas and major tourist destinations, but it is advisable to carry cash for small purchases and in rural areas. ATMs are available in most cities.
Pack lightweight, breathable clothing suitable for the climate, comfortable shoes for walking, and a travel adapter for electronics. Also, consider bringing a reusable water bottle and a basic first aid kit.
