Chakar Trave Adventure Journeys
Our Story

Crafting Extraordinary Kashmir Journeys

For over a decade, Chakar Travels has turned wanderlust into lifelong memories — handcrafted itineraries, local expertise, and 24/7 care across the valley of Kashmir.

Our Story

Born in Kashmir, Built on Trust

What began as a handful of families guiding curious travelers through Srinagar's backwaters has grown into Kashmir's most loved travel house. Chakar Trave was founded by locals who grew up among these mountains — we know every orchard, every shikara stand, and every hidden meadow worth your time.

Today we handcraft bespoke itineraries across the valley — from the tulip gardens of Srinagar to the high-altitude passes of Ladakh — always with private guides, handpicked stays, and a 24/7 on-trip concierge who answers within minutes.
