After breakfast in the morning, proceed for an excursion downstream along the Indus River from Leh. En route, visit Gurudwara Pathar Sahib, located deep in the Himalayas.

After about 4 kms, visit Magnetic Hill, a natural wonder that appears to defy the law of gravity. Continue driving through a picturesque landscape to reach the confluence of the Indus and Zanskar Rivers.

Before Saspul, take a right turn to visit Likir Monastery, one of the most active monasteries in the region. A recently installed colossal gilded statue of Maitreya Buddha in the open is one of the most impressive sights in Ladakh.

After visiting the monastery, continue your drive towards Uleytokpo or Tingmosgang along the Indus River. En route, visit Rizong Monastery. Those interested may opt for a short walk up to the monastery. Hidden at the end of a steep valley, the first view of the monastery is truly dramatic.

After a lavish breakfast at the hotel in Leh, check out and proceed to Nubra Valley via Khardung La Pass. From the pass, you can enjoy breathtaking views stretching south over the Indus Valley to countless peaks and ridges of the Zanskar Range, and north towards the towering Saser Massif.

Nubra Valley, also known as Ldumra (the Valley of Flowers), is located in the north of Ladakh between the Karakoram and Ladakh ranges of the Himalayas. The average altitude of the valley is around 10,000 feet above sea level.

Upon arrival in Nubra Valley, our driver will transfer you to your pre-booked hotel. Check in and relax. If time permits, take a walk around the nearby villages to experience the local lifestyle in this remote part of Ladakh.

After breakfast in the morning, proceed to Hunder, where you will have the opportunity to enjoy a ride on a Bactrian camel (double-humped) amidst the sand dunes of this high-altitude desert, with snow-capped mountains on the horizon.

Between Hunder and Diskit, you will come across sand dunes along the roadside. In isolation, these dunes resemble those of the Thar Desert in Rajasthan. It is indeed an unusual sight, as rocky mountains typical of the Ladakhi landscape lie on one side, while snow-capped peaks can be seen in the distance.

On your return, stop at Diskit, the headquarters of Nubra Valley. Stroll through the local bazaar and observe daily life. Diskit is famous for its 515-year-old Buddhist monastery, beautifully situated on a hilltop overlooking the entire valley.

After completing your sightseeing and camel ride in Nubra, return to your hotel, check out, and drive back to Leh via Khardung La, following the same route. Upon arrival in Leh, transfer to your hotel for an overnight stay and enjoy dinner at the hotel.
