Leh Tour Packages

Get to know more about Leh before booking your tour packages

Leh is the capital of the newly formed Union territory of Ladakh. It is flanked by the two of the highest mountain ranges in the world - the Himalayas and Karakoram, which are easily visible when you are on your Leh tour package. In ancient times, Leh was an important pit stop on the trading routes along the Indus Valley that connected Tibet, modern-day Pakistan, India, and China.

The terrain of the town is primarily mountainous, and it has a cold desert climate. Due to climate and other environmental changes, the old town of Leh has been included in the World Monuments Fund list of 100 endangered sites to protect it from further damage. The town of Leh is surrounded by a variety of terrain which has given birth to many natural wonders that attract scores of tourists on Leh packages.

The towering snow-capped mountains make you wonder about the futility of keeping time for they seem to be here forever. At Sangam, where the Zanskar and Indus Rivers meet, you wonder if these rivers do not care about man-made boundaries and continue their merry flow.

Things to Do in Leh

 Although this place is perfect to just gaze out the window for hours on end, with a bowl of steaming momos or butter tea (a speciality), there are many things to see around this picturesque town.

• Leh Palace: We doubt you would find a more unique palace that seems to rise like the sphinx in the middle of nowhere. Built in the 17th century by King Sengge Namgyal to be used as a royal residence, the towering 9-floor edifice is visible from Leh’s main market. The location of the palace is also quite strategic as it offers an undisturbed view of the Zanskar Mountains as well as the Stok Kangri in addition to the town below. Tragedy struck in the 19th century when the Kashmiri army vandalized the palace and forced the royal family to flee. The ruins of the palace with many artefacts, paintings, and household items still tell the story of the grandeur of the age to the tourists visiting here on their Leh package.
  
  
• Magnetic Hill: It would be a rarity for a tourist on a Leh package to miss the mystery of Magnetic Hill. It is said that the magnetic property of the hill is such that vehicles continue to move upwards without any force being applied, defying gravity. Whether it is an actual phenomenon or an optical illusion, it is a great stopover to have lots of fun. So, make sure you include this place in your Leh tour itinerary.
  
  
• Spituk Gompa: Built in the 14th century, this striking Gompa overlooks the Indus Valley. It is a spiral stairway that takes you to the three-tiered shrine called Latho. Gonkhang (protector chapel) is supposed to be the protector of the guardian deities of the monastery. While designing your Leh sightseeing package, make sure you include this place.
  
  
• Sangam: No Leh tour package is complete without this place. How would you like to see two mighty rivers, so starkly different from each other, converge at a stunning location before going their separate ways? The Zanskar and Indus rivers meet here, amid the cold desert. The Indus Valley Civilization, given birth by the Indus River, is regarded as one of the most advanced in human history. While the Indus River can be seen as shiny blue, the Zanskar River is dirty green and the meeting point looks quite remarkable due to the colours, and it leaves you spellbound on a travel package to Leh.
  
  
• Leh Old Town: Being a major highlight of most Leh travel packages, a visit to the old town of Leh lets you discover the simple lives of these simple mountain people. The maze of narrow lanes is part of the allure. The house is built in such a way to withstand the extreme climate of the region. Most of the houses are brick houses and some are a few centuries old but are surprisingly well-maintained.
  
  
• Hemis Monastery: Hemis monastery is situated in Hemis village and is spread over a huge area. This is where the famous Hemis festival takes place in June-July (make a note of the dates beforehand if you are keen). The complex also has a museum that encapsulates the life and times of the people in the region through the ages. While looking for Leh travel packages, check out for this place as well.
