Day - Wise Itinerary
Day 1
An Ameliya Private Guide will meet you at the Delhi airport as you fly together to Leh. After a short flight (1.5 hrs), you will arrive in Leh, a beautiful paradise nestled in the Himalayas. A short drive will take you from the airport to the hotel. Due to the high altitude, we recommend that you take the rest of the day to relax and acclimatize.
DAY 2
Spend the day visiting beautiful landmarks like the Shanti Stupa, or exploring charming villages of Lato, Gya, and Meru, or opt for a heritage walk through Leh’s bustling old market, marveling at local crafts and soaking in the vibrant atmosphere. A drive through the mountains outside Leh also offers the opportunity for wildlife sightings like the Blue Sheep and the Tibetan Partridge.
Day 3
Check out from the Leh hotel and embark on a scenic 3-hour drive to the lodge. The route boasts breathtaking landscapes and a chance to spot the majestic Urial. Reach the lodge by lunchtime. Post lunch, you will have some time to unwind and take in the scenery from the deck. As the sun sets and evening rolls around, join your Ameliya Private Guide for a pre-dinner briefing where you’ll learn what to expect during the next few days, and the wildlife you can see in the area. The orientation is followed by a chef-prepared, authentic Himalayan dinner before turning in for the night.
DAY 4 - 9
Rise with the sun and embark on exciting adventures based on real-time intel from our expert spotters. Explore the beautiful mountains surrounding the lodge, or take short drives to promising locations based on potential snow leopard sightings. Some days might involve waiting for long hours, so be prepared for some patient observation as we wait for opportunities to witness these elusive, magnificent creatures in their natural habitat.
Day 10
After a final heartwarming breakfast, transfer to the Leh airport, followed by a flight to Delhi and onward international transfers from New Delhi.
And head back to Leh where you’ll spend the night.
