Dr's 7 days trip to Kashmir

15 hours ago
We were received at the airport by Mr. Amir, who was very proactive and helpful in all aspects. He navigated us throughout the tour without any rush or delay at any place, and made us comfortable throughout our entire tour. Hotel Grand Sahara Hills at Srinagar was cosy and spacious, and we had a good experience. But they need to improve their room service. (4 stars) Hotel Supreme Resort at Pahalgam is not fully ready to receive guests. The hotel  construction is not complete. Basic facilities such as approach road are not yet built, and the generator is not capable of running heater or geyser. The location is also not great. Food served had limited choices, they had only jain food. (2 stars) Hotel Zahgeer at Gulmarg is very good and in a good location. Service and food was also good. (5 stars) On the last day we stayed in Blue Dolphin houseboat in Dal lake. While the houseboat itself is okay, it was too cold to utilise any of its space due to the extremely cold weather. It had a firewood based heater in 2 out of 4 rooms, which was not sufficient to warm any room up to a comfortable temperature. We should have been advised against staying in a houseboat in such a weather condition on the last day of a long trip. The tour co-ordinators were in communication and helped out wherever possible.

Tushar's 7 days trip to Kashmir

We recently visited Kashmir for the first time, and our 6-day, 6-night honeymoon trip, arranged through Breezy Travels, was an absolute dream come true! From the very beginning, our travel agent, Ms Arooj, was incredibly helpful, polite, and attentive. She took the time to understand our preferences and curated a perfect itinerary for us. The trip details were clearly explained, making everything easy to understand and plan. Every place we visited in Kashmir was a gem in itself—be it the breathtaking beauty of Gulmarg, the serene landscapes of Sonmarg, or the charming surroundings of Pahalgam. Each destination left us in awe. We stayed at three distinct hotels during our trip—OV, Lidder Spring, and Hotel Zahgeer Continental. Each of them offered something unique and memorable, enhancing our overall experience. Today, for our final night, we are staying at the stunning houseboat Anarkali. The name of the houseboat perfectly captures its beauty and the essence of Kashmiri hospitality, making this experience truly unforgettable. Our driver, Mr. Imtiaz, was more than just a driver—he was our guide, companion, and even our photographer at times! His kindness, politeness, and vast knowledge made the trip even more special. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience, always making us feel comfortable and cared for. Apart from the stunning landscapes, one of the highlights of our trip was experiencing the warmth and hospitality of the local people. Kashmir truly is heaven on earth, and the people here have hearts of gold. The food throughout the trip was consistently delicious and fulfilling, adding another layer of joy to our journey. This has been an unforgettable honeymoon, and we can't wait to return to Kashmir someday. A big thank you to Ms. Arooj and Mr. Imtiaz for making this trip so special. We highly recommend Breezy Travels to anyone looking to explore the beauty of Kashmir!

Ashish's 7 days trip to Kashmir

Srinagar Hotel staffs were supportive and helpful, however the hotel was not of 4-star standard. The service and rooms condition including the beds were not very good. Gulmarg hotel stay was small but was good. Pahalgam hotel and services were not so good. Complimentary breakfast and dinner were with a limited spread. Guided trip Kashmir should be more professional in terms of their communication and better coordination with the hotel in terms of customer expectations. They should be more engaging with customer to create excitement and mental comfort. Traveltriangle was helpful in just connecting to the local agent and their involvement was NIL

Dharani's 7 days trip to Kashmir

20 days ago
I recently (23Nov to 29th Nov-24) had the pleasure of visiting Kashmir on a trip organized by Oscar Tours & Travel, and it was truly a memorable experience! From start to finish, everything was seamlessly planned and executed by Irshad. The itinerary was well-balanced, giving us ample time to explore the breathtaking beauty of Kashmir—be it the serene Dal Lake, the majestic mountains of Sonamarg, Gulmarg, or the charming valleys of Pahalgam. Every destination was a masterpiece of nature. Multiple options of accommodations were presented by Oscar travels during the planning stage. The accommodations were top-notch, offering comfort and stunning views, and the local Taxi Driver (Mr. Harris ) more like a friend was very knowledgeable, friendly, and always ready to help. I highly recommend Oscar Tours & Travel to anyone planning a trip to Kashmir. They made my journey a beautiful and stress-free adventure! Thank you for a lifetime of memories!

My trip to Kashmir was a dream come true, providing a much-needed break from the hustle and bustle of daily life. This journey allowed me to reconnect with nature and truly relax. A special thanks to *Bazeela* for being an exceptional trip planner. She consistently checked in on us throughout our journey, ensuring everything went smoothly. Her attention to detail made a significant difference in our experience. During my 7D 6N trip, I explored several breathtaking locations: Srinagar: The capital of Jammu and Kashmir, known for its beautiful gardens and houseboats. Sonamarg: Famous for its stunning meadows and as a base for treks. Gulmarg: Renowned for its ski resorts and picturesque landscapes. Dooparthi: A lesser-known gem that offered serene views. Pahalgam: Known for its lush greenery and as a starting point for the Amarnath Yatra pilgrimage. Overall, this was one of the best trips I have ever had. Thank you once again to *Drip in Kashmir* and *Bazeela* for making this experience unforgettable.
