🚨 LAST CALL FOR LADAKH! Is it safe? YES. Is it epic? Also YES.


🚨 LAST CALL FOR LADAKH! Is it safe? YES. Is it epic? Also YES.

Hey there,

We’ve had a lot of questions lately about the upcoming Ladakh road trip – and it’s time we clear the air.

Here’s the deal:

❄️ Ladakh ≠ Kashmir

1️⃣ Ladakh is a separate Union Territory
It has its own administration and a completely different ground reality.

2️⃣ Pahalgam to Leh is over 500 km away
That’s a 14+ hour mountain drive — a different region altogether.

3️⃣ No history of unrest in Ladakh
There's been no history of disputes and attacks.

Don't just take our word for it. The Indian Association of Tour Operators (IATO) has officially confirmed:

🕊️ Peace has been restored across the region
✈️ Border airports are now open
🏨 Tourism infrastructure is up and running smoothly

Travel across India is absolutely safe — and we’re back in action.

🛣️ But That’s Not All — We’re Taking the Scenic Route

This year, to keep your journey even more secure and unforgettable, we’ve rerouted the Ladakh trip via the stunning Zanskar Valley instead of Srinagar.

We’re talking untouched Himalayan beauty, sacred peaks like Gonbo Rangjon, remote mountain villages, and roads most travellers never get to see.

This isn’t your average holiday.
It’s an adventure through some of the rawest, most surreal landscapes in India.

  • The turquoise waters of Pangong Tso💙
  • The surreal dunes of Nubra Valley🏜️
  • The quiet charm of Turtuk, India’s northernmost village 🏡
  • The sacred stillness of Gonbo Rangjon 🏔️
  • The remote peace of Tso Moriri 🧘‍♀️
  • Of course, the mighty Khardung La and so much more!

🌟 What Makes This Trip Special:

Pick your vibe – Bike, SUV, or your own car🚗
Comfortable stays at 13,000+ ft — warm, clean, cozy🏕️
Support vehicle + backup crew — breakdowns, first aid, luggage, we’ve got it🔧
Experienced trip leaders who know the mountains inside out👥
Itinerary tracking – quick adjustments, zero stress📍

🛣️ Chandigarh to Chandigarh (Full road trip via Zanskar)
🗓️ 5 June – 16 June

✈️ Leh to Leh (with Tso Moriri)
🗓️ 7 June – 15 June

See you in the mountains!

Swipe Right on Ladakh: Perfect Roads, Wild Views, Zero Red Flags Last year, I hiked to Annapurna Base Camp solo—no guide, no group, just me, my backpack, and a whole lot of dal bhat. 🥾I tracked every rupee, and yep, it turned out way cheaper than an organized group tour. But here’s the thing: DIY trekking only works if you’ve done a few already, know how to plan, don’t panic easily, and can handle altitude sickness..For first-timers or not-so-seasoned adventurers, paying that extra money for...
