Himalayan Explorer Tour

Leh, the capital of Ladakh, is a high-altitude desert city nestled amidst the majestic Himalayas. It serves as the gateway to the region’s stunning landscapes and ancient Buddhist monasteries, making it a popular destination for adventure seekers and spiritual travellers alike.

The main attractions in Leh include the historic Leh Palace, the iconic Shanti Stupa offering panoramic views of the city, and the bustling markets of Leh where travelers can shop for local handicrafts, jewelry, and souvenirs.

Nubra Valley often referred to as the “Valley of Flowers,” is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes, lush green oasis villages, and high-altitude desert terrain. Travellers flock to Nubra Valley to experience the unique camel safaris amidst the dunes of Hunder and Diskit, visit ancient monasteries like Diskit Monastery, and soak in the serene beauty of the region

The best time to visit Leh, Nubra Valley, and Pangong Lake is during the summer months from May to September when the weather is pleasant and the roads leading to these destinations are open for travel. However, travelers should be prepared for cold temperatures, especially at night, even during the summer season due to the high altitude of the region.

At Pangong Lake, visitors can enjoy activities such as camping by the lakeside under the starry night sky, taking scenic walks along the shoreline, and indulging in photography sessions to capture the ever-changing colours of the lake. Adventure enthusiasts can also opt for kayaking or boating experiences on the crystal-clear waters of the lake.

Pangong Lake, one of the highest saltwater lakes in the world, is famous for its mesmerizing blue hues and stunning reflections of the surrounding mountains. It gained international fame after being featured in the Bollywood movie “3 Idiots.” Travellers visit Pangong Lake to witness its ethereal beauty, go on lakeside picnics, and capture breathtaking photographs against the backdrop of the Himalayas.

Besides camel safaris, visitors to Nubra Valley can explore attractions such as the towering Maitreya Buddha statue at Diskit Monastery, the enchanting Yarab Tso Lake, and the picturesque villages of Sumur and Turtuk, known for their apricot orchards and traditional Balti culture.
