SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR TOURISTS VISITING LADAKH
Ladakh is a very safe, tourist-friendly and cheering place, but still, you need to take care of some preparations which can make your tour even better and memorable:
– Only post-paid mobile phones work in Leh-Ladakh, preferably BSNL, Airtel and Jio. As phones may not work in many places, keep your family members informed well in advance not to worry if they fail to contact you.
– You would hardly find any cellular network in most of the areas in Leh. BSNL works better here, however, you would find Airtel and Jio signals also at some places (Leh, Hunder and Diskit).
– Don’t expect high-speed internet in Ladakh.
– Keep ready a pair of woollen (not heavy) with you as temperature may dip as low as 5 degrees any time even during summer months.
– Carry good Sun Screen lotion, sunglasses (goggles), cap with you to avoid sunburn as sun rays are direct and can burn your skin.
– Don’t forget to carry photo id with you. Driving License, Passport, Voter Cards, and Aadhaar are valid photo IDs.
– While travelling on the mountains, keep drinking water and eating healthy food and fruits to avoid high altitude sickness and dizziness due to curvy roads, low air pressure and dry air.
– Carry headache, stomachache, anti-vomiting tablets with you.
– You may consume diamox at least 7-8 hours before arrival at Leh (preferably before falling asleep) and may also take before boarding plane to Leh. The medicine is optional. Having rest and drinking enough water for some hours after reaching Leh is advised.
– Leh has some ATM machines where you can withdraw cash. These machines witness long queues of customers during peak season and run out of cash many times. Non-connectivity is another issue. So carrying enough cash is advisable.
– Please respect the Buddhist and Muslim culture of Ladakh. People of all communities here believe in brotherhood and harmony and respects the tourists. The residents expect the same from the tourists.
Tour Reviews
The Covid fear has ruined my plan of visiting Ladakh for second time this season. I did this trip last year in first week of October. Amazing trip, amazing landscapes and amazing people. I will suggest rather doing this trip from Srinagar and ending in Manali or Delhi or in reverse direction i.e starting from Delhi or Manali and ending at Srinagar. I’ll be back guys.. wait for me.
Good trip package, well executed. Enjoyed every second of the trip. hotels were good. Only one suggestion to tourists that if you want to visit Ladakh from Jammu by road, don’t do it both way. Travelling time is too much. It took 3 days to reach leh and same time to return back to jammu. Road journey is sometimes expensive than flight tickets. You can make it Jammu-Srinagar-Ladakh and take flight from Leh airport. Or, you can go to Manali and then Delhi by road. This way you need not to travel through the same route again and again. Otherwise, our trip was great. Thanks.
When will Jammu Leh road open. Kindly send me ladakh tour package details from jammu.
Nice tour package.
