Tour overview

Ladakh is a high-altitude desert of staggering scale. This private journey takes you from the monasteries around Leh over one of the world's highest passes into Nubra, then on to the surreal blue of Pangong Lake.

Because Leh sits at 3,500m, we build in acclimatisation and arrange all inner-line permits.

  • Crossing the Khardung La pass
  • Bactrian camels on the Nubra dunes
