Taxi booking, self-drive rentals and complete tour packages for the Chandigarh–Manali–Leh road trip — covering Pangong Tso, Nubra Valley, Khardung La and Tso Moriri, with experienced high-altitude drivers and full permit assistance.
Chandigarh to Ladakh is a Chandigarh-based travel operator focused entirely on one route: the Chandigarh–Manali–Leh–Ladakh road trip. Since 2013 we've planned taxi trips, self-drive rentals and multi-day tour packages for travellers heading into the high Himalayas, across Rohtang, Baralacha La, Tanglang La and on to Leh, Pangong Tso and Nubra Valley.
Because we only work this corridor, our drivers understand the altitude, the seasonal road closures, and the acclimatisation stops that make the difference between a rough trip and a memorable one. Whether you want a chauffeur-driven SUV for the whole circuit, a self-drive rental, or a fully planned tour package with permits sorted for you, we build the itinerary around your dates.
From a chauffeur-driven taxi to a fully self-planned bike trip, here's how we help travellers cover the Manali-Leh Highway safely.

"Did the full Chandigarh to Leh circuit with them, including Pangong Tso. Driver handled Baralacha La and Tanglang La without any issues and permits were sorted before we arrived."
"Took the self-drive SUV option. The route briefing before we left was genuinely useful, and their support line answered even from Sarchu."
"Booked a bike trip for our group of 6 with a backup vehicle. Mechanic support meant one flat tyre near Nubra didn't slow us down at all."
