Frequently Asked Questions
Is 4 days enough to experience Ladakh?▼
While Ladakh deserves more time, our 4-day package is designed to give you the essence of Ladakh - Leh city, Khardung La, and Nubra Valley. Perfect for those with limited time who still want the core Ladakh experience.
Can I visit Pangong Lake in the 4-day package?▼
Due to time and acclimatization constraints, Pangong Lake is not included. We recommend our 5-day Pangong Special or 7-day Magical Ladakh package for the Pangong experience.
Will I face altitude sickness in just 4 days?▼
Day 1 is dedicated to acclimatization. We take you to Khardung La on Day 3 only after your body has adjusted. Follow our guidelines - stay hydrated, avoid alcohol, and do not overexert.
What if my flight to Leh is delayed?▼
Leh flights are often delayed due to weather. We have buffer time in the itinerary. If significantly delayed, we adjust the schedule to ensure you do not miss the highlights.
Is the Nubra Valley trip a day trip or overnight?▼
In our 4-day package, Nubra is a long day trip returning to Leh the same evening. For overnight Nubra experience, consider our 7-day packages.

This was my third Ladakh trip but first to Tso Moriri. Why did I wait so long? It's even better than Pangong!
Honeymoon trip that exceeded all expectations! The lakeside camp at Pangong was so romantic - we even saw shooting stars at night. The planning was perfect and we didn't have to worry about anything. Thank you for making our first trip as a couple so special.
The interaction with young monks at Hemis was heartwarming. Their simple life is so inspiring. Life-changing experience.
Comfortable trip for seniors. Ground floor rooms were helpful. Food was soft and easy to digest. Minor suggestion - more rest stops.
Photography heaven from start to finish! The changing landscapes kept my camera busy throughout. Must-do road trip.
The most Instagram-worthy destination in India! Every frame looks like a painting. Cannot recommend this package enough.
We even got to see a snow leopard from a distance! The wildlife experience at Tso Moriri was unexpected bonus.
From landscapes to portraits of locals - got incredible variety. The hidden spots known only to the guide were gems!
Excellent luxury experience. Private guide, premium vehicle, top hotels. Only minor issue was one hotel below expected standards.
Started our married life with the most incredible trip! Ladakh is magical for couples. Highly recommend this package.
