Ladakh   (View All Batches)

Overview

A specially crafted tour for the discerning traveler in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, this tour specifically emphasizes on you regaining your peace of mind by going back to nature and thus helping you indulge in the pristine natural therapy, and at the same time keeping the cost way below our regular fees. Ladakh is one of the safest places to be in right now! Need a better reason to come?  

Ladakh, India’s crowning glory (pun intended), without any shred of doubt, has some of the most unreal and scenic views in the country. You will be stumped and hypnotised by everything surrounding you. The sun-kissed mountains that are capped with spotless snow, the clear lakes that look like giant, blue crystals and the untouched, pristine greenery radiates such calmness, that it all becomes a part of you. The moment you step here, you feel like you have stepped into a magical land which you never want to leave.

A staggering experience of wild, untamed beauty, monumental scale and a hushed, haunting silence symbolises Ladakh. Perhaps, the most mysterious of all Indian districts, Ladakh is a wonder-world of the raw forces of Nature, forces those haven’t been disgraced by the deeds of men. A photographer`s favourite, Ladakh can't help but throw up landscape stunners all year round. But, it’s in the summers that the region really sparkles, with pristine, blue lakes which look like paintings and surrounded by silvery, gray mountains that conjure up images of the moon!

In Ladakh, they say, never put the camera away, as vistas after vistas of breathtaking charm and grandeur unfold before your eyes! This arduous journey takes you right through the heart of Ladakh, the land, where, as the sun rises, beauty in its most complete form descends upon the ground embracing everything within sight!

The magnificence of Nature at every turn and corner is so palpable that it might make you cry happy tears, just at the thought of being at such a fascinating place. No artist could capture the beauty of this place, or do justice by their trials. And it just seems apt, that you too give it your best shot. And if you think that a part of you was left behind, don’t worry, you’re not the only one!
