Kashmir Tour Package from Mumbai: Flights, Season and a 6-Night Plan
Swap Mumbai humidity for Himalayan air in under three hours. Direct flights, the best months for Mumbaikars, a 6-night route and what a package really costs.
Quick answerFrom Mumbai, take a direct flight to Srinagar (about 2 hours 45 minutes to 3 hours). A 6-night trip covering Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam and a Sonamarg day costs about ₹24,000–42,000 per person for a mid-range land package, plus flights. April–June is the classic escape from Mumbai's heat; October–November is quieter and golden.
Every Mumbaikar knows the feeling: it is May, the air is soup, and even the sea breeze at Marine Drive feels like a hairdryer. Kashmir is the antidote. Three hours after leaving Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport you can be sitting on a houseboat, wrapped in a shawl, wondering why you ever argued with an autorickshaw about the meter.
Getting there from Mumbai
| Option | Time | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Direct flight to Srinagar | About 2 h 45 min to 3 h | Several airlines fly the route daily. Morning flights let you start sightseeing the same day. |
| Flight via Delhi | 5–7 h with the connection | Useful when direct fares spike. |
| Train to Katra or Jammu, then on | About a day and a half to Katra, then about 3 h to Srinagar by Vande Bharat | Scenic and good for adding Vaishno Devi. Check current trains on IRCTC. |
Fares jump sharply for May–June and the Diwali and Christmas weeks. Booking six to eight weeks ahead usually saves more than any discount code.
Best time to go from Mumbai
- April–June: the big escape. Tulips in early April, green meadows by May. Busiest months, so book early.
- July–August (Mumbai monsoon): Kashmir is green and pleasant, but the Amarnath Yatra makes Pahalgam and Sonamarg roads busier.
- October–November: clear skies, chinar trees turning gold, and Diwali holidays that line up nicely.
- December–February: snow in Gulmarg. Pack properly; Mumbai "winter clothes" are not Kashmir winter clothes.
