If you're thinking about visiting Ladakh for the first time, I would highly recommend Ladakh Backpackers to ensure you have a safe and wonderful time.
Fida was exceptionally helpful in curating our tour; we visited Leh, Nubra Valley, Turtuk and Pangong Tso, experiencing breathtaking scenery, historical sites, and interaction with locals in the villages. Fida's commitment to our experience didn't end with planning; he remained in contact throughout the trip to ensure everything was running smoothly, and provided updates on things we could see and do as new information became available. For example, although it was not originally in the itinerary, we were able to attend the Gustor Festival at Diskit Monastery in Nubra Valley.
With Ghulam behind the wheel, we felt completely at ease on mountain roads that might have otherwise felt daunting. He’s also a wonderful person with lots of information to share and seems to know everybody within a 300-mile radius.
Ladakh is a transformative experience, and I can’t recommend this company enough.
