Pratiksha Naik's Trip to Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam

5 /5

(Written on 02 Mar, 2025)

What's Good: Our trip to Kashmir was truly memorable one. This time we were travelling with our 7 year old son so were a bit worried about safety and over all the entire arrangement. But honest (Read More)ly, we did not had to be bother about anything. The trip was so well planned by Mr Pervaiz and his team. We stayed in some of the best hotels and houseboat in srinagar, pahalgam and gulmarg. All 3 places r equally charming, and we could complete all the sight seeing within time because of the well planned trip. Mr Pervaiz was careful about our safety through out the trip. He had been in touch with us personally everyday, enquiring about our whereabouts. We were carefree and enjoyed to the fullest. We were blessed enough to have one of the most experienced guide cum driver. Mr Mumin was a native of srinagar and was very knowledgeable about all the places. He helped us a lot and gave the best possible advice with regards to local food, activities and its rates, shopping places etc. He was quite playful with our child and kept him entertained throughout which is most difficult when travelling with a child. Overall, I would highly recommend Explorus travels to anyone who wants to travel to Kashmir and enjoy the serenity without worrying much about the arrangement. You will get the most organised, well curated itinerary here for the best price. I would like to specially mention the open minded approach of Mr Pervaiz towards all the last minute changes I requested him due to changes in our schedule and he did it all on just one phone call. Most travel agencies do not entertain this. He had been very humble, honest and ground to earth with us till the end of our trip.
What's Not Good: There was hardly anything that I could complain about. Had great time in kashmir.

They are the best into whom all I have enquired about the Srinagar tour. Specially guidance provided by Afreen Bhat, she helped us to better plan the trip in and complete the tour in just Two and hal (Read More)f day. She was available all the time on call during the tour, provided best suggestions. the driver assigned with us i.e. Mr. Sahil was very good with very good driving skills. When originally booked hotel have had some issues, Afreen has provided with us better hotel i.e. Hotel Su Casa. the hotel was very good. Hotel staff was very supportive and cohortative specially Zuber and Basarat. We had a situation on last day just before the departure, then he offered and assured us that he will drop us to the safe point or if required to the Airport and by talking Local police somehow he manages that our taxi and Sahil reach to the Hotel.
