Being in Travel Trade Business from the times immemorial, as our ancestors have been Legendry Pioneers in the Travel Trade Since 1887 with just one barrage (Water Transportation) as there were no means of automobile transportation in Kashmir and in fact the trade route was through rivers only and also the Carts were also the sources of transportation as well, but it took long time to bring things from one place to another. It was also difficult to use carts during winter times because of our winters the roads used to remain snow bound for months together. The Barges were being used to carry Provisions, other stock items of daily use through rivers, lakes & streams.

Our Company is being managed by a team of professionals having vast experience in Travel trade. Our business is Inbound and Domestic Tourism.
