View rideFour things we never compromise on, whichever journey you choose.
Every route climbs gradually, with rest days built in and oxygen and oximeters in every vehicle.
Drivers, guides and hosts from the regions you visit — who know the roads, the weather and the families.
Private journeys on your own dates, or small groups of eight to ten at most.
We tell you about long drives, cold bathrooms and road closures before you book — not after.
Long light, green fields and every road open. Private journeys run on your dates; small groups leave on fixed departures.

Plan this rideEach valley has its own season, culture and pace. Start with a place and we'll shape the route around it.
Monasteries above the Indus, high lakes and the cold desert of Nubra.
A remote valley of barley fields and cliff-hung monasteries beyond Pensi La.
Thousand-year-old monasteries and fossil villages in Himachal's cold desert.
Tea gardens, orchards and wooden temples — the gentle gateway to the high valleys.
Fortress-monasteries, prayer-flag passes and quiet, terraced valleys.
When the high passes close, the valleys of Bhutan and Kangra are at their clearest. Two journeys and two treks to start with.
