Why Falcon Trails
Six reasons to book a Srinagar-based team directly, rather than a portal that forwards your enquiry to one.
Our founder started as a guide in Srinagar in 2010 and has hosted travellers from more than twelve countries. We plan Kashmir from the ground, not from a call centre.
Every quote shows what each night and each vehicle costs, and exclusions are written plainly. You pay only once the plan and the price are right.
Houseboat quality varies. We confirm the named stay, room category and inclusions in your written quote before you pay.
A private cab for your whole trip, and a straight briefing on the union taxis and fixed rates at Pahalgam, Sonamarg and Gulmarg.
One WhatsApp thread from your first message to your flight home. If a road closes or the weather turns, we change the plan with you.
Amarnath and Vaishno Devi with a guide who has walked the route, stays arranged around the official timings, and help with the paperwork.
What we do
Kashmir is home. From here we plan journeys across India, pilgrimages done right, fixed-date groups, trips for visitors to India, and holidays abroad.

Kashmir is open all year, and every season is a different trip. Here is the honest breakdown.
Mar – Apr
Almond and cherry blossom, and the Tulip Garden for a few weeks. Cool days, cold nights.
May – Jun
Meadows at their greenest and every valley open. Book early; this is peak season.
Jul – Aug
Warm days and the Amarnath Yatra. Pahalgam and Sonamarg are busy; Gurez and the north are at their best.
Sep – Oct
Clear skies, thinner crowds, and the chinars turning red and gold in October.
Nov
Quiet and crisp. The Gurez and Zojila roads start to close with the first heavy snow.
Dec – Feb
Gulmarg and Pahalgam under snow, skiing in Gulmarg, and Dal Lake in winter light. Dress warm.
