A Srinagar to Kargil tempo traveller is a 12 seater Force Traveller with an experienced local driver, and Happy Jacks Tours and Travels arranges it for groups crossing into Ladakh. The route covers about 200 km and takes roughly 7 hours, running through Sonamarg and over the high Zoji La pass before reaching Kargil. This is a scenic but demanding mountain drive, so groups usually book the tempo traveller as a full day journey with an early morning start. Many travellers use Kargil as an overnight halt on the way to Leh. Fares start from Rs 5,000 per day and are confirmed on WhatsApp based on your dates, pickup point and whether Kargil is a stop on a longer Ladakh trip. Our Srinagar based drivers know the Zoji La road well and time the drive around the pass.
A Srinagar to Kargil tempo traveller starts from Rs 5,000 per day for the 12 seater Force Traveller with driver. The final fare depends on the season, road status at Zoji La and whether Kargil is part of a longer Leh itinerary. We share a clear per day or per route quote on WhatsApp.
Kargil is about 200 km from Srinagar and the drive takes around 7 hours in the tempo traveller. The time depends on conditions at Sonamarg and the Zoji La pass, along with any convoy or road work delays.
The Force Traveller seats 12 passengers with luggage space, which suits groups touring Ladakh together. For very large groups we can arrange a larger 17 seater tempo through trusted local partners.

The fare covers the 12 seater Force Traveller, fuel and an experienced local Kashmiri driver. Meals, stays in Kargil, parking and any permits are extra and easy to arrange with our team.
The best time to travel Srinagar to Kargil is roughly May to October, when the Zoji La pass is open. The pass usually closes in deep winter, so we plan Kargil and Ladakh trips within the open season.
