Once you arrive at Leh Airport, our representative will greet you and guide you to your hotel. A refreshing welcome drink should lift your spirits up. High altitudes require some biological adjustments and we recommend that you take complete rest before you begin your adventure on the next day. Stay the day and night at the hotel in Leh as you enjoy your arrival and get accustomed to the weather and height. Overnight stay Dinner Breakfast

We recommend a hearty breakfast before we embark on a long journey of about 39 kms between Leh, and Nubra Valley via Khardung La on road. Khardung La is the highest motorable pass and lies at 18,380 feet above sea level. A popular attraction, you can alight at this highest point and feel the chilly yet calm wind blowing, enjoy the expanse of Leh right below the valley and feel the power of the altitude. For most visitors this is a memory never to forget. Explore Hunder Village, the rest of the valley, a ride on the Bactrian camel in the sand dunes and inspect the Diskit Monastery. We should once again be back at camp in Leh by sundown. Alternatively, enjoy a great evening at a hotel in Nubra.
