Once outside, you can hire a prepaid cab which will cost you around 2500 one-way from Srinagar to Gulmarg. It is a 2-hour drive with the most magnificent view once you get close to Tanmarg.
Shared taxis are also available that are the cheapest way to go. However, if you are constraint on time, shared taxis are not a viable option as they stop everytime someone needs to get in and out of the taxi. Shared taxis are also often crowded and travelling with a luggage bag and a carry-on can be quite difficult.
Therefore, we recommend booking a taxi in advance to ensure smoother arrival. You can then stop in Srinagar to pick up essentials that might not be available in small towns.
