Travel Tips for Kolkata Travelers Visiting Kashmir
- Pack for cold — Kashmir is nothing like Kolkata: Even in summer, Gulmarg and Sonamarg evenings drop to 8–12°C. Kolkata travelers are used to humidity and heat — carry a fleece jacket, light woolens, and a windcheater regardless of season.
- Book Durga Puja flights by June–July: Kolkata to Srinagar flights during Durga Puja are among the most booked in India. Waitlists start forming 3–4 months before the holiday. If you wait until September, you will either not find seats or pay 3x the price.
- Howrah to Jammu trains for budget travel: Book Himgiri Express or Jammu Tawi Express from Howrah Junction at least 45–60 days ahead on IRCTC. 3AC is the recommended class for a 36-hour journey — Sleeper gets crowded.
- Book Gondola tickets online before flying: Visit jammukashmircablecar.com before leaving Kolkata. During April–June and October (Durga Puja), Gondola tickets sell out by 9 AM at the counter. Online booking guarantees your slot.
- Carry cash — ATMs limited in Gulmarg and Sonamarg: Carry ₹3,000–5,000 per person in cash for union cabs, pony rides, and local snacks. UPI works in Srinagar city but connectivity is spotty in high-altitude areas.
- Try authentic Kashmiri food — not Bengali: Yes, you can find bengali-style food in Srinagar. But don’t. Kashmiri Wazwan — Rogan Josh, Gushtaba, Yakhni, and Dum Aloo — is a once-in-a-trip experience. Ask our drivers for the best local restaurants away from tourist traps.
- Carry government photo ID: Aadhaar card or passport required at hotel check-in, some tourist checkpoints, and the Gondola booking counter.
