Uber Introduces Uber Shikara Uber Introduces Uber Shikara: India’s First Water Transport Service in Srinagar’s Dal Lake Uber has introduced its first water transport service, called Uber Shikara, in India’s Srinagar, Dal Lake. This programme enables tourists to book rides in advance using the mobile application. It introduces a new segment for the startup , focusing on water transport rather than just land services. The service aims to enhance travel experiences while supporting the local economy and cultural preservation. Seamless Booking Experience Uber Shikara offers an easier booking model for rides between 10 AM and 5 PM. Each Shikara can accommodate up to four passengers and the ride lasts approximately an hour. Passengers can reserve their rides 12 hours to 15 days before through Uber Reserve in the app. The service helps travellers avoid last-minute rush and hustle, ensuring smooth tours around Dal Lake. Prabhjeet Singh, Uber India & South Asia’s President, shared the company’s aim to blend technology and tradition. “At Uber, we strive to make mobility magical and effortless for all our valued travellers,” he said. “Uber Shikara blends technology with tradition to provide a seamless experience for Shikara rides in Kashmir.” He added that the initiative enhances accessibility and promotes tourism in Kashmir’s breathtakingly picturesque landscapes. The service is expected to significantly boost tourism while improving accessibility in the stunning Kashmir region.
