Terms and Conditions
Acclimatization is key
Leh is situated at an elevation of 11,500 feet above sea level, making it difficult for your body to adjust to the lower levels of oxygen as soon as you arrive. Day 1 in Leh can make or break your tour. Do not underestimate the importance of acclimatization at any cost. It is important to take your time and not try to do too much too soon on Day 1. Drink plenty of water to help your body adjust to the altitude. Avoid alcohol, smoking, and caffeine, as they can interfere with your body's ability to acclimatize.
Luxury is not a thing in Changthang
Destinations can vary in terms of the levels of luxury and comfort they offer. Leh and Nubra Valley are moderately comfortable in terms of accommodation and amenities. Pangong Tso, Hanle, and Tso Moriri are harsh and rustic. Please do not expect even an ounce of luxury in these places. Getting to sleep on a bed with a mattress, an attached washroom with running cold water, and a bucket of hot water upon request is what luxury could sound like in Changthang. We intend to help you set clear expectations.
Airport pickup will happen in groups of three or four. You might have to wait for fellow group travelers to arrive before getting transferred to the hotel.
Aadhaar card and Driving license are mandatory for drivers. Pillion riders need to furnish an Aadhaar card upon arrival.
On Day 1, the arrangement of a cab to the main market from the hotel will NOT be free of cost. Standard charges will be applicable.
