Itinerary
Welcome to Ladakh. You will meet our tour representative at the airport who will assist you during your vacation in Ladakh. You will be transferred to the hotel to rest and acclimatise. It is important to give your body some time to adjust to the high altitude.
After lunch, you may visit the famous Shanti Stupa. It is a white Japanese Pagoda built for world peace by Indian-based Japanese monks. Shanti Stupa was inaugurated by His Holiness Dalai Lama in 1985.
Get back to the hotel for dinner and an overnight stay.
Give your morning a beautiful start with a delicious breakfast at the hotel. You will be picked up from the hotel to reach the Indus and Zanskar River Sangam.
Continuing the day tour, our next stop will be Gurdwara Pathar Sahib Ji, constructed to honour the first Sikh Guru, Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Seek blessings and then proceed for a magical experience at Magnetic Hills. Here you can feel the vehicles moving uphill, against gravity.
Our last stop for the day is the Leh Hall of Fame. Visit the Kargil War Memorial, built to pay homage to the brave soldiers who fought for the country. It was built by the Indian Army in memory of brave martyrs who lost their lives during the Indo-Pak war.
As the day comes to an end, you will get back to the hotel for dinner. You will stay the night at Leh.
Begin your day early with a scrumptious breakfast before checking out. Today, we will drive through the highest motorable road, Khardung La Pass, to reach the enchanting terrains of Nubra Valley. Khardung La Pass is known as the gateway to Siachen Glacier, from where you can witness the surreal beauty of the mountains enveloped in the blanket of snow.
Offer your prayers at Deskit Monastery, founded by Lama SherabZangpo in 1420 A.D. As you reach Nubra, check in at the hotel or camp and get ready to take in the untouched beauty of Ladakh. Our next stop will be Hundar village, where you can enjoy the Bactrian camel Safari in the dunes.
As the day sets, you will be dropped back at your accommodation in Nubra for dinner and an overnight stay.
Welcome the beautiful morning at Nubra with a delicious breakfast, and get ready for an unreal experience at Turtuk. The region was occupied by Pakistan, but after the Indo-Pak war in 1971, it came under the governance of the Indian Government. Turtuk is now open for tourists, offering them a unique experience.
The landscape of Turtuk is different from that of Nubra. There is lush greenery with apricot trees lined along the villages. One can see the majestic Karakoram Range from Turtuk.
Towards the end of the day, you will be dropped back at the hotel/camp in Nubra. Have your dinner and stay overnight.
The morning at Nubra feels magical. You will have breakfast at the hotel before proceeding on the day's journey. We will cover the pristine Pangong Lake, driving through Shyok and onto Tang Tse. The quote- 'It's not the Destination, It's the journey', seems true as the route to Pangong is all about scenic vistas that appear unreal.
Reaching Shayok village, you will find a big village, nothing less than a postcard destination, perched beautifully between the barren mountains.
Continuing the journey, we will reach Pangong Lake to witness its mysterious colours. Pangong Lake changes its colours from blue, and green, to gold, pink and red in a day, which makes the lake look like a fantasy.
You have the time to soak in the beauty of the surroundings. Dinner will be served at the camp where you will stay overnight.
Enjoy the morning views at Pangong with your breakfast. Today, we will take you to the most beautiful and sacred lake- Tsomoriri Lake. The route is filled with many captivating sights, making the journey beautiful. Passing through the Changthang Valley, Hot Sulphur Spring, and the quaint villages, you will reach Korzok. Do not miss to capture the beauty of Nomadic camps housing Pashmina Goats, yaks, and sheep.
Reaching Tsomoriri, you will check in at the camp, and the day is yours to plan. Explore the nearby places, take in the panoramic beauty of the lake, and have a perfect leisurely experience.
Enjoy dinner and stay overnight at camp in Tsomoriri.
Enjoy your breakfast amidst the surreal views of Tsomoriri Lake, and check out. We will drive you back to Leh, enroute to the Pug Sulphur Mine, Tsokar Lake, and Tanglang La Pass. At an elevation of 17585 ft, it is the second-highest motorable road in the world.
Along the way, we will stop to explore Hemis Monastery, the largest monastery in Ladakh. Then, visit Thiksey Monastery, perched on a hillock, offering breathtaking views of the Indus Valley. Thiksey Monastery is known for its seated statue of the Maitreya. In the assembly hall or Dukhang, there are several prayer books stacked between wooden covers and bound in silk.
Proceed your journey to admire the beauty of Buddhist stupas, and you will see Shey Palace, the former summer residence of the King of Ladakh. Don't miss the visit to the 3 Idiots School Campus and Sindhu Darshan.
You will reach Leh by the evening, and the time is yours to explore the market, shop, and enjoy local food.
Have your dinner and spend the night at the hotel in Leh

Ladakh
Ladakh, the land of high pass, is home to the surreal beauty of nature.

Residing at 11,000 feet above sea level, this union territory of India is a living paradise on Earth.

Everything has beauty, be it the river flowing through the roads or the pious air breezing through the mountain ranges. Devotees flock from around the world to visit the Buddhist monasteries- Hemis Monastery, Diskit Monastery, Gurdwara Patthar Sahib, and Shanti Stupa.
Spending a holiday in Ladakh is an eclectic mix of experiences. You can go camping under the stars in Nubra Valley, witness the magical colours of Pangong Lake, and ride up the highest motorable pass, Khardung La.
