Any other advice is extremely welcome. Travel companions are welcome.
Thanking you,

Hey Sudhir
I'm looking for a trip to Leh as well this June end. But the problem is that my dates aren't very flexible. My trip has to start after 22 June and end by 4 July.
I could join you on day 2 at Manali and continue with you till day 11 or 12 and then fly out from Leh.
How are you planning this trip? Will you book the itinerary or just go along with whatever is available? haven't done such a trip before so I was looking at travel agents.
Do let me know what your plan is.
Cheers,
Rakesh. Reply to this
