        Amazing Ladakh and locales which are amongst the most scenic in the world!
        We had a wonderful trip to Srinagar and Leh Ladakh. The entire trip was for 12 days and during that time we had very good experience from the start to finish . Dorzay and his team are knowledgeable about the locales and also set expectations on what to expect in each of the places we had been . Especially remote places like Tsomoriri, the landscape is amazing , other than that it is a very remote place, we know what to expect ! The team is very patient , and worked with us to meet our needs and adjust schedules too. We were little nervous about the acclamatization initially , Dorzay came to meet with us on the day we arrived in Leh to boost our confidence . Overall the trip was very good and special shout out for drive Ali for making the journey very safe and enjoyable.The only area to improve for Active adventure and Dorzay would be to share a detailed and confirmed schedule atleast 2 weeks prior to the trip! Finally will strongly endorse Dorzay and team for folks visiting the region!

        Family tour to beautiful Ladakh June-July 2024
        We two families visited Ladakh on June end to July first week 2024. We visited Leh, Khardung La, Nubra valley (Diskit, Hunder, Turtuk), Pangong Tso, Hanle and Tso Moriri, for total duration of nine nights ten days. Based on few prior research I contacted Mr. Thinlays Dorjay of Active Adventures. My travel, stay and foods were arranged by Active Adventures over phone call and WhatsApp chat. We all the travelers thank Mr. Dorjay for excellent arrangement of tour. Our driver was very friendly and we all really enjoyed his assistance for nine days. All the arrangement of hotels and homestays are up to the mark. I recommend Active Adventures for tour arrangement at Ladakh.

        Amazing host Mr. Dorjay. Just a request and he caters to them without any hesitation. Special mention to mr. Lundup, our guide cum driver. One of the best travel service provider within Ladakh. Highly suggest to contact them for your next trip to Ladakh.

        5 Stars to Active Adventures!
        I found Active Adventures on TripAdvisor with good reviews & decided to use them & what a great decision it was. With a terrain like Ladakh one needs a good Travel Agent with in depth info on the local conditions. Dorjay, the owner provided us with a car & driver Ali right through our 9 day trip of Ladakh & was always available on call. We started off in Leh through Khardung La to Nubra Valley from where we visited Turtuk, the last village before Pakistan. We then did Tso Pangong, Hanle & Tso Moriri each spectacular in its own way. The altitude in the last 3 places are not the easiest to visit, so good hotels are required. Dorjay made sure we had the best possible accomodation under the circumstances. Even though it was summer the day time temperatures to the night time could vary like crazy...by 15°. The landscape was picture perfect with Pangong Lake the icing on the cake....simply mesmerizing. Our driver cum guide Ali was very good @ his job & a good human being too, ever ready to help fellow travellers stranded or broken down. Dorjay fav phrase ' No problem Sir'

        Trekking in Ladakh
        We managed to book five days trek with homestay from this company, and we are also lucky to have excellent guide and good car driver. We enjoyed the local food and good time with the local. I recommend Stanzin and his team !

        Experiential trip curated by Dorjay
        Julley! We just returned from 10 days of less commercial, unseen Ladakh trip arranged end to end by Mr. Dorjay, now a good friend. Our trip included interactions with local communities and exploring the extremes of the Ladakhi culture. Dorjay was very flexible, approachable and recommended some of the best experiences to make the most - we visited ancient monasteries, base camp, stayed at local homestays, met some local visionaries and drove through some tough terrains alongside border. A plus was also to witness untouched serene wildlife on our way through nomadic villages. We never felt the hardship of the long distances thanks to our exceptional driver, Sonam, he told us so many stories about the Ladakhi lifestyle and history. We would definitely visit again and recommend Active Adventures whole heartedly for your Ladakhi adventure.

        Best hiking trip
        The trip was very beautifully crafted and we explored the most beautiful parts of Ladakh. Me and my wife are both hikers and love to explore the wilderness. And there’s nothing like exploring the far flung villages, uphill monasteries and colurful prayer flags waving on top of the higher passes. Our Ladakh tour was the most amazing so far among all our trips around the world.

        First trip to Leh Ladakh
        Mr. Dorjay made our first trip to Ladakh the most memorable. He made the best arrangements for us in terms of driver, cars, hotels. Our drivers Mushtaq and Lotus were just the best! They took care of us and were experts on these tricky roads, knew all the right places to stop by for food and toilet breaks. Overall the itinerary prepared by Active Adventures was brilliant. It did not exhaust us and the whole week felt like a breeze. We did experience some AMS symptoms on the second day in Leh, and Mr. Dorjay was so sweet that he came down to our room to meet us and see how we were holding up. He motivated us and asked us to keep our spirits high for the trip. We got well the next day and carried on with the trip. That’s just amazing service, something I have not seen before. I highly recommend planning with Active Adventures if its your first time in Ladakh!

      We had a dream to go to Ladakh since 2018 and the trip was repeatedly getting postponed due to no proper planning and other reasons. During our planning in 2023 we have cross checked with multiple trip organizers however most of them denied in customizing a trip for us especially during Winters. Then we identified Active Adventures who is organizing the ladakh circuit well . they provided us a proper with a proper stay, good driver who can talk English well and they have also frequently enquiring us on our stay and trip on a day to day basis. Thanks to Mr. Dorjay who has successfully organized a trip for us in December 2023 especially in WINTERS.
      Thanks to Active adventures in making our dream come trip without any issues. I would strongly recommend this organization for your trip to ladakh who can cover most of the places in a good budget.

      Decided to travel to Ladakh for the first time but was afraid of the high altitude. Found a few local tour agencies that can bring me around based on my requirements but decided to go with Dorjay’s service. Eventhough most tour agencies here offer the same services, I am really touched by how sincere and attentive he and his crew can be.
      The crew is very responsive and flexible in arrangement, and they put tourist safety and wellbeing at the top priority. When travelling with them, you feel extremely safe
      He personally came to my hotel to check on me when I was having altitude sickness, and helped me to recover by day 2 so that I can visit all the places that I want. His crew Tsewang is also very knowledgeable about the history of Ladakh, and gave me a very good understanding of the culture here. Throughout my 4 days there, I visited so many beautiful landscapes and monasteries, probably my best trip in awhile! The hotel he arranged for me is also extremely satisfactory, I really enjoyed my stay.
      If you are looking for a local tour or guide with reasonable rates, do engage their services!

      My friend and I only had about 3 days in Ladakh to spend and had to plan our trip somewhat last minute. Thinlay Dorjay was an incredible service to us as he 1) helped us plan an amazing trip that was specifically tailored to our interests, 2) included activities in our trip we hadn’t thought of previously that were unforgettable and 3) arranged an amazing driver for us and Thinlay served as our private guide for two day treks. Thinlay will make whatever kind of trip to Ladakh happen and will make it better than you thought it could be.
      He and our driver showed us two prominent monasteries around Leh and thoroughly explained the spiritual significance of all the different parts of the monasteries/temples. This was truly an unbelievable experience as we got a genuine preview of the local philosophy and culture. The importance of compassion in Buddhist philosophy definitely shows through Thinlay and his service - he genuinely seems to enjoy teaching visitors about the local culture and environment.
      Thinlay also served as a private guide for us and helped immensely in planning which treks to do. We had to makeshift our own hikes because we did not have enough time to do full treks. Thinlay helped us choose two different day treks that would give us a great preview of the unique landscapes of Ladakh. He ended up planning portions of the sham valley trek and stok trek for us, which were both phenomenal.
      Overall, Thinlay and his driver gave us an unforgettable experience at a very very fair price. His service is coming from a very genuine place of wanting each visitor to enjoy Ladakh to the fullest. This was evidenced by his great effort to make sure we got to do everything we set out to in Ladakh with limited time. If I or anyone I know is visiting ladakh again, I will make sure they have his number and use his service. I hope to return and plan another trip with Thinlay and his group again as soon as I can!

      We spent a week exploring the wonders of Ladakh with a car and a driver provided by Active Adventures.

      We were so lucky to have Tashi as a driver: he was so professional, kind and a very skilled driver! We always felt safe with him, even on the most steep roads!

      And our guide Jigmat provided a great added value to our trip: he told us everything about Ladakhi traditions, local habits and spirituality. A great human experience we will suggest to everyone!

      I am grateful to Active Advenntures for the above and beyond wonderful service that they rendered to me and my family. They had provided two Toyota SUV s at our disposal for the entire trip. So the long drives through the days were very comfortable. Our drivers acted as our tour guides. It was amazing to see their knowledge of not only local topography, geography and small nice eateries, but also their ability to read the clouds and weather. This prevented us from getting caught in cloudbursts and getting stranded.

      Last but not the least, I am. ever grateful to them for saving my son's life. It was our guide/driver Thinles who identified with oximeter that my son was suffering from hypoxia when we were up in the high altitude of Pangong Lake. Each of the cars was well equipped with oximeter and a huge oxygen cylinder. That is how we got him down to Leh and on his advice, straight to the government hospital.

      Both the owner of Active Adventures and his guide Thinles were with us there in the initial stages of getting him admitted and running around and getting necessary medicines.

      The support and expert guidance that we received from this tour operator was outstanding. I think the best part of Ladakh, is not the majestic mountains and its ethereal beauty. The jewel in this paradise are its people as we found the in the Active Adventures.

      We book a private taxi for our trip - the taxi driver was amazing, very calm and nice, helpful in everything. He knew also a lot about the places that we wanted to visit, on the way told us many interesting stories about Ladakh district and the way of life of the people. He took us to the sunrise Puja to the Thiksey monastery very early in the morning, and didnt have any problem with waiting for us while we were doing our meditation. Active Adventures organized also permits for us, and helped us to prepare for the trip, giving us advice. We were extremely happy with our choice, and next time that we are in Ladakh - we will defintely want to have them as our agent! :)

      We took a customised private tour and Dorjay planned it for us. His price was the most competitive compared to other local operators. Aside from a hotel change that was not communicated to us on our last night in Ladakh, Dorjay did a great job.
      Our driver Lundup on the other hand is an excellent, safe and patient driver. Being native to Ladakh, he knew all the places very well and could give us some historical background as well. Lundup went above and beyond to make our trip memorable and I'll highly recommend him. Ladakh itself is gorgeous and a top must visit place.

      We did a road trip from Chandigarh to Manali to Jispa to Gya to Leh to Hunder to Panamik to Panggong Lake and back to Leh. Mr Dorje was simply great in responding to our needs. He was very helpful throughout or journey and provided oxygen tanks in the car and ensured that the hotels and food was good. The drivers provided were also very good and were able to communicate in English. Mr Dorje even helped us with arranging a birthday celebration of one of us. He checked on us all the way. We would certainly recommend Active Adventures for your Ladakh tour.

      We are also planning another trip from Leh to Kargil to Srinagar next year and will certainly use Active Adventures again.

      Keep up the good work Mr Dorje!

      Absolutely fantastic time in Ladakh. Active Adventure made everything smooth with supported pickups and a great driver and perfect guides and the sites. Amazing experience and so safe, considering the troubling times, the local people as so genuine and I truly wish other can travel and get the same experience. I thoroughly recommend their services.

      Couldn’t speak highly enough of the service the team gave me, right from sorting the trip via email to being dropped back at the hotel in Leh. Dorjay and Tswang were fantastic and I’d have no hesitation going away with them again. I recommend though if you’ve never experienced great altitudes before spending 48 hours in Leh before tackling a hike.
