Tushar's 7 days trip to Gulmarg

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!
