Day-by-day itinerary
Arrive Leh · Rest · Leh Palace & Shanti Stupa — Our representative meets you at Kushok Bakula Rimpochee airport in Leh, which is at about 3,500 m, and takes you to your hotel in Leh, 3–4 km away. Rest in your room first so your body can adjust to the altitude, because this is essential in Ladakh. Later, visit Leh Palace, a nine-storey former royal palace built by King Sengge Namgyal in the 17th century and modelled on the Potala Palace in…
Sham Valley · Alchi, Likir · Hall of Fame & Magnetic Hill — After breakfast, set out on a full-day tour of the Sham Valley. Visit Alchi Monastery, one of the oldest monasteries in Ladakh, known for its well-preserved 11th- or 12th-century wall paintings in an Indo-Himalayan style. Continue past Uleytokpo to Likir Monastery, first built in the 11th century and rebuilt in the 18th, which has a 25-foot (7.6 m) gold-covered Buddha statue. On the way back,…
Leh to Nubra Valley over Khardung La — After breakfast, drive from Leh to Nubra Valley over Khardung La, about 39 km from Leh. The supplier gives its height as 5,602 m (18,390 ft), which makes it one of the highest motorable passes, and on a clear day you can see the Zanskar range to the south and the Saser massif to the north. The air at the top is very thin, so keep your stop short. This is a long mountain drive. Nubra, also called…
Hunder dunes · Diskit · Nubra to Pangong Tso — After an early breakfast, check out and see the sand dunes at Hunder, a high-altitude desert with snow-capped mountains on the horizon. You can ride a double-humped Bactrian camel here at your own cost. Stop at Diskit, the headquarters town of Nubra, for a stroll through the bazaar and a visit to Diskit Monastery, around 500 years old, on a hilltop facing the whole valley; entry fees are your…
Pangong Tso to Leh over Chang La — After breakfast by the lake, drive back to Leh over Chang La, which the supplier gives as 5,360 m. This is another long drive on mountain roads, so keep warm clothes and water handy for the pass. The plan has no other sightseeing stops today. Check in at your hotel in Leh and stay overnight.
Departure from Leh — Have breakfast at the hotel and check out. You are then transferred to Leh airport for your onward flight. Flights are not included in this package. The tour ends here.

Good to know
Leh is at about 3,500 m, so day 1 is mainly for rest; avoid rushing around on arrival and drink plenty of water.
The Inner Line Permit (about Rs 700 per person) and the Ladakh environment fee are needed for Nubra and Pangong and are not included.
Monastery, palace, museum and other entry fees, the camel ride at Hunder, rafting, a guide and oxygen are not included.
Days 3, 4 and 5 involve long mountain drives over high passes, and some road stretches between Nubra and Pangong are very rough.
Transport is a private vehicle with driver for the whole tour.
Nubra and Pangong nights are in camps or cottages of the category you choose, and the Leh nights are in hotels (3-star in the headline price; Standard to 4-star are in the price table).
Breakfast and dinner are included daily, except dinner only on day 1 and breakfast only on day 6.
If anyone in your group has heart, lung or blood pressure problems, speak to your doctor before booking a high-altitude trip.
Questions travellers ask
Why is the first day kept light?
Leh is at about 3,500 m, and your body needs time to adjust to the thin air. You rest first, and Leh Palace and Shanti Stupa come later in the day.
Is the Inner Line Permit included?
No. The Inner Line Permit costs about Rs 700 per person, and the Ladakh environment fee is extra too. Both are needed for the Nubra and Pangong routes.
Is the camel ride at Hunder included?
No. You can ride a Bactrian (double-humped) camel at the Hunder dunes on day 4, but you pay for it yourself.
Is oxygen provided in the vehicle?
Oxygen is not included in this package. Resting on day 1, drinking enough water and keeping stops at the high passes short will help.
What kind of stay do we get at Nubra and Pangong?
You stay in a camp or cottage that matches the hotel category you choose, one night in Hunder (Nubra Valley) and one night near Pangong Tso. Breakfast and dinner are included.
Which days have long drives?
Day 3 (Leh to Nubra over Khardung La), day 4 (Nubra to Pangong, with some very rough road patches) and day 5 (Pangong to Leh over Chang La) are long road days.
Do we visit the '3 Idiots' school?
No. Druk Padma Karpo School (Rancho's school) is not part of this itinerary. You will, however, spend a night at Pangong Tso, which became widely known through the film.
Are flights included?
No. The package starts and ends at Leh airport, and you book your own flights.
