Do i have network coverage during my ride?
Yes! Since 2023, telecom services have improved significantly, so now around 70%-80% of your ride will have internet access. If you find yourself in an area without coverage, our crew will provide personal hotspots for everyone.
Can i charge my phone, camera, etc.?
Absolutely! You’ll have access to power during most of the ride. However, in places like hundar, tsokar, and purne, electricity operates on a schedule. Your guide will give you a heads-up each day.
Does my home sim card work?
It will only work if you have a postpaid plan. If you’re on a prepaid plan, you’ll need to buy a local sim card when you arrive.
Will the support car be in front of us or follow us?
The support car will mostly follow to ensure no one is left behind. However, if you prefer, you can ask the team to position it in front—it's flexible.
Can i buy a sim card if i’m a foreigner?
Yes, you can! It takes a bit of time: you’ll need to fill out some forms, show your passport, and take a photo etc

Definitely! But only bring it if you’re confident in flying it, as we prioritize safety.
How can i reach ladakh or manali?

Airlines like air india, jet airways, and goair have daily flights from delhi, while flights from jammu and srinagar operate twice a week. During the summer, you can also reach leh by road from srinagar (april to november) or manali (may to october). manali: the nearest airport is in bhuntar, about an hour’s drive from manali. The road to manali remains open year-round, and buses run daily from delhi/chandigarh.
Where will i meet the team?
Riders and participants will meet at the designated hotels/guesthouses for the manali-leh tour, where our team will greet you. For custom tours and other trips, our representative will be there to welcome you at the airport. If you're unsure, you can always call us at 9622978941.
I want to get to ladakh, srinagar, or himachal early—can you help me find a hotel?
Of course! We can arrange extra nights for you before or after the tour. Just let us know your needs.
When’s the best time to visit ladakh?
Each season has its own charm. April is a bit chillier. The prime time for riding is from may to september, with temperatures around 20°c to 25°c. October starts to cool down, and from november to march, it’s the off-season with no riding.
