Monasteries, Moonscapes & the Roof of the World
“Leh, Nubra Valley and Pangong Tso”
Built around altitude and mountain silence, this high-altitude Himalayan journey traces Leh, the Khardung La pass, the Nubra Valley’s sand dunes, and the ethereal blue waters of Pangong Tso. Ladakh is priced differently to the other seven trips because of how remote and flight dependent it is. We reconfirm exact costing before any advance payment is taken.
Trip trajectory & transit passages
Leh & acclimatisation
Acclimatisation is medical, not optional, so this trip always includes a mandatory rest day in Leh before any sightseeing begins, regardless of how fit travellers are. Discuss altitude medication with a GP well before travel. Pricing is our own estimate given the route’s remoteness and flight dependency, and we reconfirm exact costing before any advance payment is taken.

Paid in the UK, in pounds
We’re a small UK-based team. When you book, you pay us directly in pounds, so there’s no overseas transfer to arrange and no separate agent to chase.
Shape it with us, before and after you book
Swap a city, shift your dates or change the service tier while we plan it together: nothing is fixed until you choose to book. After that, we’ll still help with changes, and tell you what’s possible and any cost before you agree.
A person replies, within one to two days
Every enquiry reaches a member of the team directly, with a personal reply within one to two days, by whichever contact method you prefer. Questions are always welcome.
Every enquiry becomes a dossier
We don’t just email back a price. Within one to two days, we send a first proposal: suggested dates, your chosen module swaps and an indicative land price. Hotels, dates and the final price are confirmed with our ground partner before you book.
Ready to make this yours?
Tell us when, how many of you, and any swaps you have in mind. A real person replies within one to two days. Nothing is fixed until you choose to book, and questions are always welcome.
Not sure this is the one?
Five questions, no typing required. We'll match you to one of the eight routes: this one, or another.
Getting there

Primary hub: Leh (IXL)
Fly into Delhi first, then take the connecting morning flight to Leh: there is no way to reach Ladakh by air without transiting Delhi. Depart the same way in reverse.
Build real slack around both ends of the Leh flight: it operates mornings only and is genuinely weather-dependent, so a same-day international connection in Delhi is not advisable. Rooetd does not require your international flight to match our itinerary exactly.
