Great experience overall
Loved Leh and the cultural experiences. The Thiksey Monastery was amazing! Only complaint - wished we had more time at Nubra Valley. 7 days felt a bit rushed.

Ladakh is pure magic!
The Pangong Lake, monasteries, mountain passes - everything was breathtaking. Our tour guide was excellent and the Hemis festival was mesmerizing. Can't wait to go back!
