FAQs

Is Ladakh suitable for first-time travelers from the South of India?

Yes, Ladakh is suitable for first-time travellers, but it’s important to be mindful of the altitude. We recommend acclimatizing in Leh on Day 1 to avoid altitude sickness. If you're travelling from the southern regions like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, or Karnataka, ensure you carry warm clothes, as Ladakh’s temperatures can be quite chilly, even in summer.

How can I travel from Chennai/Hyderabad to Leh?

To reach Leh from South India, you’ll need to take a flight from major cities like Chennai or Hyderabad to Delhi, and from there, take a connecting flight to Leh. Most airlines offer direct flights from Delhi to Leh, which take around 1.5 hours. It’s recommended to reach Leh a day earlier for acclimatization.

What is the best time to visit Ladakh?

The best time to visit Ladakh is from May to September, when the weather is relatively mild and most of the roads are open. The summer months offer ideal conditions for sightseeing, camping, and adventure activities. For those interested in snow, November to February is the winter season, but temperatures can drop drastically, making travel challenging.

How can I reach Leh (Ladakh)?

You can reach Leh by flight from major cities like Delhi, Mumbai, or Srinagar. Leh’s Kushok Bakula Rimpochee Airport is the main airport with regular flights. Alternatively, you can also travel by road via the Manali-Leh Highway or Srinagar-Leh Highway, which opens during the summer months.

Are Inner Line Permits (ILPs) required for this tour?

Yes, Inner Line Permits are required for certain areas like Pangong Lake, Tso Moriri, and Khardung La. The necessary permits will be arranged for you as part of the package, but you’ll need to carry a valid government ID (such as Aadhaar, Voter ID, or Passport) for permit processing.

Is Ladakh a family-friendly destination?

Yes, Ladakh is suitable for families, offering a peaceful and scenic environment. The Ladakh Serenity Sojourn is designed to provide a mix of relaxation, cultural experiences, and mild adventure, making it an excellent choice for family trips. However, it is important to ensure proper acclimatization, especially for young children or elderly family members.
