Highlights of Our Ladakh Self-Drive Tour
✅ Manali to Leh Highway – Gateway to Adventure
Starting from the lush green valleys of Manali, this route takes you across Rohtang Pass, Baralacha La, and Tanglang La—each offering stunning views and adrenaline-charged drives. Our guides ensure safety and acclimatization stops to prepare you for high-altitude transitions.
✅ Leh – The Cultural Capital
Leh is not just the capital city—it’s the soul of Ladakh. Explore Leh Palace, Shanti Stupa, and local bazaars, and savor Ladakhi cuisine before heading into deeper Himalayan territory. Our expert coordinators help you understand the local culture and hidden gems.
✅ Nubra Valley – Desert Amidst Snow Peaks
Crossing Khardung La, one of the highest motorable roads in the world, you descend into the surreal Nubra Valley. Camel rides on Hunder’s sand dunes, bonfires by the Shyok River, and stargazing nights under a billion stars await.

No Ladakh journey is complete without witnessing the changing hues of Pangong Lake. With InpritivalBharat, you’ll camp at exclusive scenic spots—far from tourist rush—where silence speaks louder than words.

We take our expeditions further than most—deep into Changthang Plateau to explore Tso Moriri, Hanle Observatory, and Nyoma, places rarely seen by tourists. It’s here you’ll feel the true isolation and magic of the Himalayas.
