5.0Complete Ladakh in 6 Days!
The 6-day tour was perfect! Tso Moriri was the highlight - pristine and peaceful compared to crowded Pangong. The itinerary pace was excellent - we never felt rushed. Our driver Tashi was exceptional - knowledgeable and safe driver. The camps were comfortable considering remote locations. Highly recommend this over shorter tours.

4.5Family Adventure of a Lifetime
Traveled with husband and 2 kids (12 & 15). The tour was perfectly paced for family. Kids loved camel safari and camping. Acclimatization was handled well - no altitude issues. Tso Moriri was challenging but worth it. Food was simple but good. Driver was patient with kids. Recommend carrying snacks and wet wipes for Tso Moriri stay.
