Local taxi in Srinagar

A car and driver for the city day: the Mughal gardens, Shankaracharya hill, Hazratbal and the old city — at your pace, with stops wherever you want them.

A typical Srinagar local day

Most travellers spend one day on Srinagar itself. A comfortable loop covers Shalimar, Nishat and Chashme Shahi along the Boulevard, Pari Mahal for the view, Hazratbal on the north shore, and the old city mosques. Your driver waits at each stop.

Local hire is priced for the day rather than by distance, because city traffic, not kilometres, takes the time. Ask for a quote with your hotel location and the places you want to cover.

  • Shalimar Bagh, Nishat Bagh, Chashme Shahi, Pari Mahal
  • Shankaracharya Temple (phones not allowed beyond the checkpoint)
  • Hazratbal Shrine and Jamia Masjid
  • Shopping at Lal Chowk and Polo View
