The Incredible Zanskar and Nubra – 11N/12D Package

Day wise Itinerary

• Day 1 : Acclimatization and Local Visits

  Pick up: We will pick you up at the world’s second highest Airport (if by air) or the Taxi Stand (if by road). Since Leh is at a very high altitude, you won’t be able to explore much, because if you do, your other 5 days might get wasted. But do not worry, we will not let the day get wasted.
  Breakfast: We will provide you with a great breakfast of your choice.
  Leh Market: You will then be visiting Leh Market. It is the ancient market of Leh, which has been evolving into a modern market, but it is pollution-less and vehicle less. The Leh market is interesting because it is an amalgamation of the traditional Ladakhi market and modern markets.
  Leh Palace: We will then take you to Leh Palace. The Leh Palace is said to have a very unique architectural style that has very less similarity to other ancient and medieval structures of India. Leh Palace in itself is a very beautiful building, which has a great history behind it. By evening, you will have a great view of the sunset from the Palace. Also, from the top of the Palace, you will have a great view of Leh town extending till Stok. A perfect start for your trip.
  Shanti Stupa: We will take you Shanti Stupa. This amazing Stupa is said to have been built by Japanese people. This beautiful architectural piece has more than 500 steps if you are a fitness freak and love to climb. But do not worry, you can also go around by a car to the top. Shanti Stupa also has a great view of the whole town of Leh.
