About this trip
Ladakh sits high in India's north, a landscape of bare mountains, Buddhist monasteries built into hilltops, and old palaces that still look out over the valleys below.
This 9-day fully guided trip takes you through Leh and out to the region's high-altitude lakes, where the ground changes from cracked and rocky to sudden, sharp green.
It's a sightseeing and culture-led trip, easy to do as a family or group, built around the region's monasteries, history, and scenery rather than adventure sports.
