This carefully orchestrated high-altitude pilgrimage takes you progressively deeper into Spiti’s sacred geography, each day revealing new layers of Buddhist culture while your body acclimatizes to rarified air and your spirit adapts to profound mountain wisdom. Experience the world’s most remote living monasteries, then contrast them with landscapes so stark they reshape your understanding of Earth’s creative power.

We did a 6-day package to Leh Ladakh and it was wonderful! Everything was very well organized and we thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The driver was fantastic and knowledgeable. The communication with the agent was always fast and professional. Highly recommend.
