We spend a month living, working and adventuring in Leh Ladakh and here is everything you need to know if you are planning a trip there. Whether it is for holiday or as a digital nomad.
The Himalays, especially the Indian side, is surprisingly affordable and convenient with access to anything you can imagine. But the high altitude is not for the faint hearted and careful preparations and precautions has to be taken to adjust safely to the high altitude.
The capital city of the Ladakh region, Leh, is situated at 3500m and if you will be adventuring around here you'll go up to 5500m above sea level. This video will help you prepare for the adventure of a lifetime that you can enjoy without getting sick and worrying.

I don't know why people consider Delhi and Mumbai as the main tourist spots of India while there are such beautiful and clean places in the country! Thank you so much for showing what India is and what India can provide.
Agree, and it’s sad that the media always only portrays India as Delhi. There’s so much more to it.
@@KinfolkTravels Because they won't get a ton of views by showing the clean India, all they want is TRP.
Yes, tourists should avoid them completely. They are overcrowded and highly polluted cities.
Partly it is due to lazy government officials too who have been promoting same Agra Delhi Jaipur circuit for decades and themselves have never travelled.
Delhi and Mumbai are business hubs, however there is still lots to do in nearby locations of Delhi and Mumbai. Alwar is a beautiful hill station near Delhi while if you are in Mumbai, do visit to Mahabaleshwar, Khandala, Alibaug and nearby surroundings instead of visiting Main cities
After ladakh must visit Andaman and nicobar islands of india for best beaches, and for other sea activities like snorkeling n scooba diving.
That is so high on our bucket list!! Have heard the most wonderful things about those islands! 🏝️
Yeah, I have Visited There 3 Times!! What a Wonderful Place
@@KinfolkTravels you american? Why do a mericans t arget ind ia?when will n ative Americans get to control their nation usa?
Lakshadweep is more beautiful @@KinfolkTravels
@@KinfolkTravels Visit Lakshadweep and puducherry also
Zanskar, Pahalgam, Sonamarg, Parvati Valley, Spiti Valley, Lahaul Valley are awesome places, kinda like Ladakh. Also, consider checking out India's eastern Himalayas like North Sikkim, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, or the islands like Lakshadweep Islands, Andaman, and Nicobar Islands. They're pretty amazing too
Hey!! Thank you for these great recommendations!! India is amazing! 🤩 We have to go back so many times to see all the incredible places.
I’ll save your list for when we go back. Thank you!! 🤗
Welcome to India mam . We love to see your vlog videos❤👍🙏🙏🙏♥️🇮🇳🇮🇳
What you mean like ladakh zanskar is in ladakh
@@Ne-yaKhoj thank you!! 🤗
I'm not sure about other places but last I checked North Sikkim was only open to Indian Citizens.
India is a very huge and diverse country in the world 🌏
28 state + 8 union territory = India (36) 🇮🇳
And many more indian island like Andaman Nikobar, Lakhyadeep etc..
Would have to travel back many times to see it all!
😢 Special status for a citizen from others will make Manipur like rioting situations 🙏 a broad minded and mature leadership will never give special status for its citizens 😇❤
India has everything like - Sand Desserts, Snowy Mountain, Rivers, Seas, Oceans, Islands, Forest, Fields, Lakes, Valleys. Etc in one country, India is gifted by god to this world ❤
Like a whole world in one 🤗
I love how you use correct map of India one subscribe for you ❤❤❤❤
Ah yes, im so glad! I was not aware that there was issues with the map, around which area is it? So I can make sure to always use the correct one. Thank you for pointing it out
@@KinfolkTravels You can see at 0:15 that map doesn't show ladakh in India but 2 sec later another map has ladakh in red
I had gone to Ladakh a decade ago; thanks for taking me back :D
I’m so glad could take you back to one of the best places on earth! Hope you can visit again!
India is like World within a World...!!!
India is so diverse in all aspects...✍️🙏
Agree 🤗
India is a beautiful country, visit once in a lifetime ❤
Agrreee!! Would have to visit many times in a lifetime to see it all 🥹
@@KinfolkTravels yeah 😇
Incredible India ♥️
It truly is incredible 🤩
Try Spiti Valley tour from Shimla to Kaza and nearby villages, Its heaven, with world’s most dangerous roads, btw great video, I wish I could work from ladakh, Pangong tso is on top of my bucket list
Oe, just googled that. Looks great!! I really want to do the Himachal Pradesh area still, so that would be perfect.
Those roads to scare me though 🥹
Thank you, I appreciate it. 🤗 we planned to only be in Ladakh for a week but then working from there was so easy we ended up staying a month.
Pangong will be in the next video. I really hope you can go there soon!
Incredible video! Never been to Leh or Ladakh, but your video has me itching to visit ASAP. The visuals are stunning. Thanks for sharing this.
This video feels like an invitation to an unforgettable adventure!
Wow! Thank you this comment just made my weekend! 🤗 I am so glad you enjoyed it and hope you can visit it soon. Thank you for watching! 🤗
We 🇮🇳use U.P.I(Unified Payments Interface) so no need for A.T.Ms. We don’t carry cash even in LEH. Even small shops have QR.Enjoy your time.❤
I heard it's Not easy if u don't have Indian Bank A/C
India is quite surprising sometimes with its adnavcements in technology.
Unfortunately the mobile payment apps often don’t work for foreigners :(
@@KinfolkTravelsyou can use UPI by loading your own currency($,£,€) into the wallet application and pay using upi to any vendors. This facility (pine labs kiosks)available in IGI New Delhi Airport and other airports in India. Hope this information helps you another time.
lovely video enjoy your india trip you are most welcome and lots of love from india you guys are doing good keep it up 🥰
Thank you for the kind comment and watching. Can’t wait to go back to India! 🇮🇳 stay safe!
sis don't forget to come Uttrakhand [Auli] ☺
Thank you, it’s on the list have heard great things!
Valley of flowers
Thanks so much for this video. We're in Rishikesh now and trying to figure out our next steps, so your video was super helpful! Just subscribed. 🥰
Oh my goodness! No way! That is awesome, so glad it could help!
I think it’s quite snowy there right now, but there will be a few places open. I’ve heard Kashmir is really beautiful right like a little Switzerland and can go ski.
Hope you guys are having the best time!
Wel come....best wishes for good journey. ..sister❤

Pls visit meghalaya and sikkim also ( nortb east india 🇮🇳) ❤️❤️pls
I. From uttarakhand ,you can visit uttrakhand too its also Himalayas
That sounds goood!! Will do!
Really enjoying your travel vlogs sis...INDIA is really so diverse that even Indians can't explore it in their lifetime 😂I belong to a state called Chhattisgarh(literally translates to 36 forts), if you ever want to visit and experience tribal culture, village life and spend some time in deep green forests( you can stay in literal forest camps but ofc with group), and not to forget the NIAGRA falls of india "chitrakote falls".....I know many people don't know about this state, but you will get to know a completely different side of India here😊🙏
Thank you for watching and so glad you enjoy it!
Wow, your home sounds amazing! Would love to visit that area, have actually never heard of it before. Tribal culture and village life sounds exactly up our alley, I’ll definitely keep it in mind for the next visit 🤗
All of India is magical, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, from Rann of Kutch to Arunachal ♥️
Keep exploring!
If you are still here, then would leave you guys a few recommendations.
Have wanted to go to Kashmir! I don’t know the other places you mentioned. Will give them a look! Thank you!!

We indians definitely make you reach 1 million subscribers soon😅
Yayy!! Im glad you liked it and clicked on it.
Hoping to come back to India again soon, the love is incredible ❤️
Whole of Delhi is NOT a Slum, only some parts where you stayed cheap (Mahipalpur) perhaps, And this is common in Europe as well - Every city has it's share.
100% agree. That was only our experience and we didn’t explore any of Delhi. That was just our experience going to the mall and back. I’m sure there are beautiful areas.
This video is about to boom 😂 Domination of indian netizens on Social media.
Enjoy your journey ❤
I love how supportive Indians are ❤️ they love sharing and encouraging. Really the most selfless people we’ve ever met.
Nc vlog. I watched without any break. Knowlageble❤
This makes me soooo happy!!! I have the biggest smile right now! 😄
I am so glad that you enjoyed it and found it valuable. 🤗🤗

Thank you! Absolutely love India, the food and its people 🤗
Everyone thinks that India is an overcrowded dirty country but im reality India is very different and diverse and it's naturally very beautiful.
Agreee! It’s a few countries in one if you look at all the different landscapes and cultures!

@@abhayaswal6233 oohhh okay, everybody says must visit it!
Leh Ladakh ❤❤ beautiful ❤️❤️ place in Bharat 🇮🇳🇮🇳
It is!! ☺️
In a few years time, I don't think you would even find ATMs in India with the deep penetration of UPI in payments. Hence, there is no going back to ATM being everywhere from here on. If anything, it could become zilch or minimum number of ATMs.
So impressed by Indias technology, this country is really one to watch.
Thanks for using the correct map 👍
I’m so glad! Someone else also mentioned it. I was not aware that there were discrepancies on the map. May I ask what the differences are with the maps as I wasn’t aware. :)
We recognize POK(Pakistan occupied kashmir) as indian part, so we want to be align with indian map although pok is controlled by pakistan but we are committed to take it back and we reserved parliamentary seats for POK people
Hope you will enjoy your journey and must visit uttarkashi (my hometown) uttarakhand
🇮🇳❤️🙏🕉️
U should visit ladakh Leh, kashmir, Shimla, Manali, Rishikesh, udaipur, jodhpur, Jaisalmer, pushkar, Goa, Kerala, Bangalore, hampi, meghalaya, Darjeeling, Sikkim, Andaman and Nicobar islands in India 🇮🇳❤️
Can’t wait to visit the south and môre of the north!!❤️
quite informational
Glad it was helpful and thank you for watching! 🤗
@@KinfolkTravels want to travel there but it might be hard as even the change in air pressure of long flights are a problem for me(mild)
India) State of Kerala🌴 must visit places:
-Aleppy backwaters ('Venice of the East')
-Vagamon ('Scotland of Kerala')
-Munnar hill station ('Kashmir of South India') home to tea plantations, spice garden, tasty homemade chocolates and different wildlife
-Varkala Beach and Kovalam Lighthouse beach
-Fort Kochi attractions with Jewish synagogue, Dutch Palace and Portuguese church alongwith the European influenced streets
-world's first water metro also try the land metro
-Kerala is a major football hub and has got featured in FIFA channel
-Athirapally waterfalls ('Niagara falls of South India')
- Lulu International Mall (largest malls of South India in Trivandrum and Kochi)
-Jatayu largest Bird Sculpture
-Do interact with the locals they are really sweet and helpful
-This state has the highest literacy rate
-Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews etc.. all live in peace and harmony♥️
-It is also the home of Ayurvedic medicine
-The Kerala cuisine consists of non-veg including beef and pork and seafood.Also try the traditional meal served on banana leaf 😍
Avoid Kerala and come to odisha is better lowest crime rate. Lot's of historical temple
Why not both it's our country support both @@crazyboy19934
Wow! This is amazing!! Thank you so much, have heard great things about Kerala so this list is so valuable. Thank you so much!! Really appreciate it.
Will give Odisha a look, thank you!
Ellore Caves, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Uttarakhand, Ram Mandir must visit these places.
Thank you for the recommendations. Nagaland looks really interesting!
U can visit south India u can see variety of different foods temples heritage and culture especially Kerala and Tamil Nadu it's amazing Kerala, munnar, kochi, wayanad
Oh wow! Looks beautiful! Some of those I’ve never hear of and it’s beautiful! Especially Munnar and Wayanad! ❤️
Thank you for feeding the animals ❤
Thank you for watching! 🤗
First of all, heartily thank you both for visiting India.🎉How was your trip to India, especially Ladakh? next time you welcome to spiti vellyannf🎉and your videos is vry interesting 🌟🌟🙏
First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to watch the video and write us a message 🤗
Our trip to India was great! Ladakh was definitely the highlight and also really liked Rajasthan.
Delhi and Agra was quite a bit hectic 😅
Can’t wait to go to Spiti!!! So much to do in the North, north East and south still.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤗
Good Job
Thank you and thank you for watching!
Wow amazing guys
Thank you!
Welcome to india
Thank you! Love India! 🇮🇳❤️
Beautiful😍
Thank you!! 🤗
You won't keep strays in your countries but come and increase strays here. And that's your selling point. Wow.
We unfortunately have so many strays in our country too 🥹
Hell you get a Subscriber for the showing the Correct Map!
Yayyy!!!
Hey there, i would say give Himachal pradesh , uttarakhand and sikkim a shot before leaving
Will definitely when we come back again! 🤗
India 🇮🇳❤
Love India!
There's no place as beautiful and stunning as Ladakh...This coming from someone who has travelled about 14 countries across Europe, Asia and Africa
It’s truly magical ✨
Very underrated 😢😢😢
Looooove Ladakh. Want more people to know about it but also don’t want to so it stays not as crowded and so special.
Jay shree ram Welcome in India🚩🕉️🇮🇳
Thank you!
Thanks for an honest review of Delhi. Most people sugarcoat it. Also, Delhi Airport lacks modern equipment which can check everything inside the bag. So you have to open the bag and expose everything.
That is the most funny thing I've heard. Of course, Delhi the city is quite crazy. But, "the modern equipment" in Delhi airport is called "X-Ray". Even small airports have it. At the Delhi airport, they ask you to unpack your electronics and some other items (in addition to X-Ray), because we are surrounded by crazy countries.
@@rextro4799 and a few crazy people who support them inside as well.
Delhi was quite an experience. Love India! But I don’t think Delhi was one of our favorite places in India, but surely an experience.
Hahaha, our bags were such a mess after packing our every single cable every time 😅 but rather safe than sorry.
Thank you for watching!
Rather safe than sorry. It’s effort, but if it ensures safety then all for it and glad they do it.
@@KinfolkTravels I think Delhi has its charm too. Especially the monuments and old Delhi street food. Plus, for many logistical things, Delhi is required. But, yeah, in no way it represents the totality of India and a couple of days are more than enough for Delhi.
I'm your new subscriber 😊❤
Yayyy!!! Thank you so much!
Have a visit to northeast though u will love it here specially meghalaya and arunachal ♥️
Would love too!! Thank you will add it! :)
Amazing video
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️
Bus to Leh bus via Himachal will give you views that you can't get on a flight. You don't have to do it at one go from Delhi.
You can spend time in Manali and Lahaul in Himachal and then take the bus for 10-12 hrs Max in one go.
I can imagine the views must be incredible!
Really want to go to Manali still. 🤗 heard it’s beautiful!
@@KinfolkTravels Manali itself is crowded... Go ahead and explore Lahaul Region which is on the way too.
@@travellingslacker ah close to Spiti?
Nice video
Thank you and thank you for watching!
i travel a lot and come across a lot of foreigners while travelling and seeing your travel style i can say you guys are pretty rich foreigner😅
That’s cause we aren’t on holiday, we work full time and travel so we need proper internet and relatively comfortable places to stay to work properly and have meetings :)
Hope you will visit Kerala & Goa these are very good place for digital Nomad
Heard such good things about it! Can’t wait to visit!
Which drone did you bring and any issues at the airport or in Ladakh?
Hi! The DJI Mavic 2 Pro.
Had no issues at Ladakh airport, did have issues when landing in Delhi from Ladakh and Mumbai landing from Delhi 🤷🏼♀️
But it got sorted and we kept the drone.
Nice👏👏😊😊😊
🤗
My dream place 😢
Agreee!! It is one of the most magical places on earth 🌍✨
Thank you for watching! 🤗
A Postpaid SIM card from Delhi will work in Ladakh. Only prepaid SIM cards are restricted.
Ahhh good to know. I don’t think tourists are able to get those though?
Do visit south India Immaculate compare to north india.
silicon city valley Bangalore ❤❤❤❤ enjoyable city
Have heard such good things about the South! Can’t wait to visit!
❤❤
☺️❤️
Y so less subscribers ? Video quality is nice.
I don’t knowwwww 🥹
You guys are showing true tourism of India instead of showing cities like Delhi and Mumbai. ❤🙏🇮🇳
Yayyy!!! I’m so glad, I hope people can watch these videos and see there’s a lot more to India than what the media portrays of crowded Delhi and slums of a Mumbai. India is so diverse with many amazing places to see ❤️
Sis don't forget to come kerala.. Coastal state india.. 🌊🏖️
I want to!!
Super affordable for folks earning in stronger currency than INR. Within India, the return flights to this place are more expensive than flights to Thailand. I feel some adjectives should be used carefully. Can be misguiding when people are generally browsing for information/
Thank you for highlighting this, noted and will be sure to choose my words better :)
I do agree with you that the flights are quite expensive to and from Leh 😅
1:10 If one goes to the Netherlands, sign boards read "Do not piss"😂
Every country has its thing 😂😅
#exploreindianislands
That is so high on my list right now, want to try and do it this year still. The pictures, the things people have said about it. Sounds like paradise!
Welcome to Leh Ladakh
Thank you! 🤗
U should visit Turtuk Village in ladakh, pangong lake in ladakh
We visited Pangong lake, incredible! Coming up in the next video.
We planned to visit Turtuk but they mentioned that a lot of times foreigners can’t really enter or go very far in so it’s not always worth the effort and drive for foreignersp
nice
Thank you!
hii.. as an indian, i can say that your video is very informative .. but i request you to use the indian map which is shown at 0:18 and not to show the map which is shown at 0:15 .. hope you visit again 💖💖
Hi! So sorry about using the incorrect map there 🙈 an honest mistake.
Thank you for pointing it out and being so nice about it
Glad you enjoyed the video and can’t wait to visit again!! 🇮🇳🤗
Come to santinal Island one most isolated island of India
That looks very interesting! But are visitors allowed to go there?
@@KinfolkTravels No sis...no one's allowed there....but you can explore neighboring islands😊Do visit cellular jail there
❤ from great 🇮🇳🙏
You have an exceptional country 🤗
I think if you don't visit Munnar in kerela then you will regret this about your india tour...i hope you do come to Munnar
Plan to visit it when we come again sometime! 🤗
You gotta visit the following places
1- BANJAR/JIBHI - KULLU, HIMACHAL
2- SHIMLA - HP
TRUST ME YPU WON'T REGRET IT
Thank you!! Adding them to the list!
Instead of hotel you should try to stay at homestay there you will get to know the true culture of ladakh
And most of shopkeepers seller travel agencies etc are not ladakhi people they come here for business thats why you wont find the true culture of ladakh
Thats why I recommend you to stay at a guest house
That is so true! Will do that next time :) the last hotel on the list felt very much like a home stay with the family :)
Try Manali to Leh bike ride. You won't regret it at all
I want to but the road sounds quite dangerous?
You also should visit Andaman Nicobar and Lakshadweep islands ❤❤
I want to!! Never knew of it before everyone in India recommended it!
@@KinfolkTravels May God bless you.... wish you have beautiful days ahead 💐🇮🇳🙏
@@stone9126 thank you! Same to you 🤗
1:55 or you can use UPI enable apps to do digital transactions.
It doesn’t work that well for foreigners with non Indian bank accounts :(
@@KinfolkTravels I saw Karl rock using it in his videos. That's why I Suggested it. 🙂

Thank you!!
Heloooooo if time permits, do visit Northeast India also . Thank you 😊
Will try to next time! It sounds great from all the recommendations!
