The Pahalgam cost model
Pahalgam is a base for the valleys rather than a place to see in itself, so the cost has two parts: the nights in the town, and the local vehicle for the day or days in the valleys. The first is in the package. The second is paid on the spot.
| Part | Basis | In the package? |
|---|---|---|
| Pahalgam hotel nights | Per room per night | Yes |
| Your own cab to and from Pahalgam | Per vehicle per day | Yes |
| Local union vehicle for the valleys | Per vehicle, paid locally | No |
| Ponies and entries | Per ride or per entry | No |

Kashmir Classic has one Pahalgam night and the others have two. A second night gives a full day in the valleys without moving on, at the price of another night’s room. The plans also differ in other places, so look at the overnights as well as the totals.

Splitting the local vehicle
Because the local vehicle is per vehicle, a group shares its cost: more people in one vehicle means a smaller share each, up to the seats it has. Ask how many seats it has and how many days you will use it, then divide. We do not give a total here.
Questions This Article Does Not Answer Above
Why can’t my own cab go to the valleys?
The valleys are visited by a local union vehicle, and your own cab does not enter them. Ask us how your day would be arranged.
Is the local vehicle charged per person?
It is charged per vehicle, paid locally. A group shares it.
Do I need two nights?
Not necessarily. Two nights give a full day for the valleys without moving on. One night suits a shorter route.
Are ponies included?
No. They are paid separately.
