Srinagar Travel Forum

I've been many years ago in the wonderful Srinagar, Kashmir. I would go back there and I'm interested to know how safe it's now... I mean not only the city, but also its surroundings, like the Srinagar-Kargil road.

Hi,

What is the best way to travel between Leh and Srinagar? What is the approximate cost and travel time?

Thanks!

im visiting kashmir on may 4th for a week and travelling to gulmarg,sonmarg,pahalgam etc

whats the weather like?
is it safe?
how long from the airport to dal lake?
are the deluxe houseboats nice to stay in?

My wife and I will be visiting Srinagar and Gulmarg at the end of Dec 2007. I heard that the Srinagar airport has very tight security and hope VT members can advise me on what to expect when we are there.

Also, am I allowed to hand-carry my digital camera onto the plane from Delhi to Srinagar, and on the way back from Srinagar to Delhi? This is because I think the Himalaya mountain scenery should be very beautiful during the flight and I intend to take some photos while on the plane.

Regards
Victor

Hello,
My father is planning for a trip to Amarnath. We are from Chennai. I will make arrangements for him to reach through flight from Chennai to Delhi and from Delhi to Srinagar.

If you could assist me in the trip details from Srinagar to Amarnath - it would be helpful . The payment details per person for the entire trip from Srinath to Amarnath and back to Srinagar, the probable dates - how many persons will be treated as group in a trip etc..

I will wait for your earliest reply - once i get your reply - i would like to immediately book it.
