Honest Travel Advisory
Who this Kashmir Group Tour by Tempo Traveller itinerary is NOT for
- •Tempo Traveller Mountain Access: Tempo Travellers comfortably handle the main highways between Srinagar, Gulmarg, Sonamarg, and Pahalgam. For internal steep roads in Pahalgam (Aru/Betaab) and Sonamarg (Zero Point), local union vehicles are required under local transport laws.
- •Gondola Online Pre-Booking: Ensure all group members have Gondola tickets booked well in advance via the official J&K Cable Car website, as tickets sell out rapidly during peak seasons.
If any of these apply to your party, speak to us and we will adapt the route.
