Arrive at Leh airport, dramatically located at 3,505 metres above sea level. On arrival, guests are warmly received and assisted with a smooth transfer to the hotel. The first half of the day is reserved strictly for complete rest and acclimatisation, allowing the body to adjust comfortably to the altitude—an essential step for senior travellers.
Post lunch, if health and comfort permit, proceed for a gentle visit to the serene Shanti Stupa, a white-domed Japanese pagoda symbolising world peace and offering panoramic sunset views over Leh town. The calm surroundings and spiritual ambience set the tone for the journey ahead.
