Delhi to Kashmir Tour Package: How to Reach Kashmir from Delhi
By Flight (Recommended)
Direct flights from Delhi to Srinagar International Airport take roughly 1.5–2 hours, with multiple daily departures and fares starting from around ₹5,000 one-way in shoulder season. This is by far the most convenient and time-efficient way to start a Delhi to Kashmir tour package.
By Train
The Vande Bharat Express runs from New Delhi to Jammu Tawi in roughly 8–9 hours, departing on select days of the week. From Jammu, the onward journey to Srinagar is completed by road, since there’s currently no direct train service into the valley.
By Road
Driving from Delhi to Jammu covers around 820 km and takes roughly 16 hours, with the onward drive to Srinagar adding significantly more time. This route suits travellers who want a genuine road trip experience rather than the fastest way in.
