An unforgettable journey awaits
Embark on the deeply sacred Amarnath Yatra, one of Hinduism's most revered pilgrimages, on this 9-day escorted journey from London through Delhi and the breathtaking Kashmir Valley. The spiritual highlight is darshan at the Holy Amarnath Cave at 3,953 metres, where the naturally formed ice Shiv Lingam draws thousands of devotees of Lord Shiva each year — reached conveniently by included return helicopter from Baltal to Panchtarni, followed by a short pony or doli journey to the cave. Beyond the yatra, enjoy the serene beauty of Srinagar with its Mughal gardens, Shankaracharya Temple and a tranquil Shikara ride on Dal Lake, and a full-day excursion to the alpine meadows of Gulmarg. This is a physically demanding high-altitude pilgrimage requiring stamina and acceptance of basic mountain accommodation (tents at Panchtarni if required). Your fare includes international flights from London Heathrow, internal flights to Srinagar, 3-star accommodation where available, daily breakfast and dinner, and the services of an experienced Tour Manager (subject to minimum group size).
