Start your Ladakh adventure with a flavorful street food tour. Visit the local markets and try local delicacies like momos, thukpa, ting-mo, and more. We recommend starting with a visit to Leh Market, which is lined up with street food vendors serving traditional Ladakhi food. Enjoy the food while taking in the stunning mountain views of the surrounding landscape.
Take a break from the city and visit the beautiful Alchi Monastery. Afterward, we suggest visiting the nearby organic farms where you can learn about local farming techniques and try organic fruits and vegetables grown in the region. Taste the freshness of the produce and enjoy the scenery of the surrounding mountains.
End your Ladakh adventure with a traditional Ladakhi meal experience. We suggest visiting a local family-run restaurant and trying traditional dishes like skyu, phirni, and butter tea. Afterward, head to the beautiful Shanti Stupa, which offers incredible panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and valleys.
To get around Ladakh, we recommend renting a car or motorcycle with a trusted rental company. Public transportation options are limited, and taxis can be expensive. All the recommended locations are accessible by road. The estimated total transportation cost for three days is around INR 7500.
If you have more time in Ladakh, we recommend visiting the Pangong Lake, Nubra Valley, or Tso Moriri Lake. For adventurous activities, try trekking in the Hemis National Park or river rafting in the Zanskar River. If you have less time, you can skip the organic farms visit and spend more time exploring the local markets for foodie experiences.
Ladakh's main airport is Leh Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport (IXL), located around 2.5 miles from Leh city center. The airport is well-connected to major cities in India like Delhi, Mumbai, and Chandigarh. From the airport, you can take a taxi to reach your hotel or preferred mode of transportation.
