A well-planned Kashmir honeymoon package should feel unhurried — slow mornings on a houseboat, quiet viewpoints instead of crowded ones, and evenings built for two rather than packed into a group sightseeing schedule. This guide lays out our most-booked honeymoon itinerary: a 6-night, 7-day Kashmir honeymoon package covering Srinagar, Gulmarg, and Pahalgam, paced specifically for couples.
Travel Nerve Kashmir builds honeymoon trips around romance first, sightseeing second, and this remains the itinerary most couples come back asking for by name.
Kashmir Honeymoon Package: 6 Nights 7 Days Itinerary Overview
This itinerary covers Srinagar, Gulmarg, and Pahalgam, with a heritage houseboat stay bookending the trip and unhurried overnight stops at each hill destination. Pacing is deliberately relaxed — fewer stops per day, later starts, and time built in specifically for the two of you rather than a full sightseeing checklist.
Kashmir Honeymoon Package: Day-Wise Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival and Houseboat Check-In
Airport pickup, heritage houseboat check-in on Dal Lake, and a sunset shikara ride to start the trip slowly and romantically.
Day 2: Srinagar Sightseeing
A relaxed morning at the Mughal gardens — Shalimar Bagh and Nishat Bagh — followed by a free afternoon back on the houseboat.
Day 3: Srinagar to Gulmarg
Scenic drive to Gulmarg, checking into a hill-view hotel with the evening free to explore the meadow together at golden hour.
Day 4: Gulmarg Gondola Day
Morning Gondola ride toward Kongdoori, with the rest of the day left open for a quiet walk through the pine forest or simply resting at the hotel.
Day 5: Gulmarg to Pahalgam
Drive to Pahalgam via Srinagar, checking into a riverside hotel along the Lidder River, with an evening stroll by the water.
Day 6: Pahalgam Sightseeing
Betaab Valley and Aru Valley by local cab, with time built in for a quiet riverside picnic rather than a rushed multi-stop day.
Day 7: Departure
Drive back to Srinagar for departure, with a stop at a local handicraft workshop if time allows.
Kashmir Honeymoon Package: What’s Included

- Private transport for the full 7-day circuit

Kashmir Honeymoon Package: Romantic Touches Worth Adding

- A candlelight dinner arranged on the houseboat deck or hotel balcony
- Quieter, less-visited viewpoints instead of the standard crowded stops
