Delhi to Kashmir tour packages

Delhi has the shortest flight to Srinagar of any major Indian city, plus a rail route via Katra. That makes 4 night trips genuinely practical — you lose almost no time in transit.

Delhi to Kashmir is the easiest trip to Kashmir from anywhere in India. The flight is under an hour and a half, departures run all day, and there are now three realistic ways to make the journey — air, the new rail line through Katra, and the NH-44 road. That choice is what makes a Delhi departure different from every other city on this site.

Which way to travel from Delhi

Fly if your time is short. A morning flight lands you in Srinagar before lunch, which means a 4 night trip really is four full nights in the valley — something travellers from further south cannot say. Airport pickup is part of every itinerary we run.

Take the train if you want the journey to be part of the trip. The Vande Bharat to Katra and the connecting service over the Chenab and Anji bridges to Srinagar turn a flight into a day of Himalayan scenery. It costs a day each way, so add a night to whatever you would book by air.

Drive only if the road itself is the point. It is a long two days, and the Jammu–Srinagar stretch closes often enough in winter and the monsoon that we would not plan a tight itinerary around it.

How long to book

For a first visit from Delhi, 4 nights covers Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonamarg without rushing — our Kashmir 4N/5D circuit is built exactly for this and is the package Delhi travellers book most. With a long weekend only, the Short Kashmir Couples Getaway or Budget Kashmir Escape fit around three days off work.

Delhi is also the one city where a winter snow trip is easy to fit in. Flights stay frequent through December to February and Gulmarg is at its best under snow. See our best time to visit Kashmir guide for how each month compares.

Package prices are land-only from Srinagar — hotels, private car, sightseeing, breakfast and dinner — so you book the flight or train yourself at whatever fare suits you, and we match the itinerary to your arrival time.

How to reach Kashmir from Delhi

By air

Delhi (DEL) → Srinagar (SXR), non-stop

About 1h 20m

The most frequently served route to Srinagar, with several departures a day in season.

By train

New Delhi → Katra by Vande Bharat, then Katra → Srinagar

Delhi to Katra is roughly eight hours by Vande Bharat; overnight trains also run to Jammu Tawi. From Katra (or Jammu Tawi) the Vande Bharat on the new all-weather line reaches Srinagar in about three hours. Book both legs on IRCTC.

By road

Delhi → Srinagar via NH-44 through Jammu, about 800 km

Two days in practice, usually broken overnight at Jammu or Patnitop. The Jammu–Srinagar stretch can close for landslides or snow — keep a fallback day.

Best time to travel from Delhi

Year-round. Delhi travellers often come in winter specifically for snow in Gulmarg, which travellers from further south rarely attempt.

Tips for travellers from Delhi

  • Early flights out of Delhi reach Srinagar before noon — worth the alarm, because it gives you an afternoon on Dal Lake on day one.
  • Srinagar airport security is heavier than Delhi’s. On the way home, reach the airport three hours before departure.
  • By train, book Delhi–Katra and Katra–Srinagar as separate tickets with at least two hours between them.
  • Delhi in May and June is above 40°C; Gulmarg the same week can be 10°C at night. Pack layers, not just summer clothes.

Questions from Delhi travellers

Kashmir is beautiful all year round. Spring (March–May) is ideal for tulip gardens and blossoming orchards. Summer (June–August) offers lush green valleys perfect for sightseeing. Autumn (September–November) brings stunning golden foliage. Winter (December–February) is magical for snowfall and skiing in Gulmarg.

Travellers from Delhi NCR

Our Kashmir honeymoon was absolutely magical. The houseboat was stunning, the shikara ride at sunset was romantic, and our driver was professional and caring throughout.
