Questions
About Ladakh.
Can I join the motorcycle tour without my own bike?
Yes. Bikes are hired for the ride; tell us your riding experience and whether you want to ride or sit pillion.
Is Ladakh right for a honeymoon?
It is on our own honeymoon poster. Take the slow plan: Leh, Nubra, Pangong, with a rest day, and skip the long bike days.
