8 Nights / 9 days Delhi - Manali - Sarchu/Keylong - Sangam - Pangong Lake - Khandrungla Top – Nubra Valley - Leh – Delhi

Tour Overview

Ladakh, accessible only in summer, is a territory reserved for those who neither fear altitude sickness nor large open spaces. Its lunar landscapes are crossed by the mighty Indus River, which with its turquoise waters sets the soundtrack to this trip with the snowy peaks of the Himalayas always in the background.

In this story scenario, we will know the impressive monasteries that Buddhism built away from any worldly temptation and, in addition to peace and meditation, we will also discover colorful music and dance festivals as well as entertaining traditional markets.

Back in Delhi, we will meet the other three great Indian religions: Hinduism, Islam, and Sikhism.

  • Drive the scenic Manali–Leh Highway via Rohtang & Baralacha Pass.
  • Explore Leh’s monasteries – Hemis, Thiksey & Shey Palace.
