Tips for Choosing the Perfect Leh Ladakh Tour Package for your Trip

The most common and first thing is accommodation which has hotels, guesthouses, homestays depending on the budget you want to spend on. This also includes private vehicles for airport pickup and drops and local sightseeing. Some packages include bikes or SUVs for an adventurous road trip. When you visit any remote areas then breakfast and dinner options are also included.  Explore places like Nubra valley, Magnetic hill, Thiksey monasteries in this package.

Select the Right Duration for Your Trip: The duration of your trip plays a vital role in choosing the right Leh Ladakh package. Short packages of 4-5 days are ideal if you want to explore Leh and its nearby attractions like Magnetic Hill, Leh Palace, and Pangong Lake. If you have more time, weeklong packages (6-8 days) offer the chance to visit Nubra Valley, monasteries, and other high-altitude spots, with time allocated for acclimatization. If you wish to extend your days then you will get a chance to cover other places like Tso Moriri, Lamayuru. 

Choose the accommodation options: This is a very important part of the trip as after a hectic day it is important to have a good stay and rest for the night. If you want a budget stay then you can choose for hostels, homestays where you get all the basic amenities. For a luxury budget you get to stay at boutique hotels, resorts with high class amenities like pool, spa and inhouse dinner options as well. Also some packages include camping near the Pangong Tso and Tso Moriri. 

Look for Acclimatization Days in the Itinerary: After reaching Ladakh it is very essential to take rest and acclimatize to the high altitude of around 11,500 feet. This causes acute mountain sickness if you start traveling instantly. Our packages include a one day rest after arrival in Leh so that the body can adapt to the higher elevations before you travel to places like Nubra valley or Pangong lake. Proper acclimatization ensures that you enjoy the trip without health concerns affecting your experience. 

Flexibility and Customization Options: Many travel companies offer flexibility and give the option to customize the itinerary according to the requirement of the traveler. Options like extending your stay, if you can add some activities that are not included in the package, if the trip is planned to allow some free time for exploration, check these possibilities with the company.  Also some packages offer free breakfast options as well, it is advised to check well in advance and do the booking. Negotiate and ask for some discounts and complimentary as well.

Permits and Travel Insurance: Many areas in Leh Ladakh, such as Nubra Valley and Pangong Lake, require Inner Line Permits (ILPs). It must be included in the Leh Ladakh package to avoid any last minute inconvenience. Also you must check to select packages that offer travel insurance if you are planning to go hiking or any other adventure activities. Travel insurance provides coverage for potential issues such as altitude sickness, cancellations, or medical emergencies, giving you peace of mind during your journey.

Travel Style: Adventure vs. Leisure: Whether you are traveling for adventure or for leisure purposes, here in Ladakh you can find both. If you want to do activities like mountain biking, river rafting, camel safaris in Nubra Valley, or trekking to Stok Kangri and Markha Valley then choose the adventure package. But if you want to go to monasteries, sit and relax at Pangong Lake and do camping or the night then choose leisure packages. 

Compare Package Prices and Inclusions: Comparing prices and inclusions across different Leh Ladakh packages is essential for finding the best deal. While some packages may seem inexpensive, they could have hidden costs or offer fewer services. Look for packages that provide good value by including meals, sightseeing tours, permits, and other essential services. Make clear about the extra charges being asked or later the company adds any charges after reaching there.
