Very comprehensive tour of Ladakh, including the wonderful Hemis Festival at the Hemis Monastery. The scenery and places visited were outstanding. The local team was very good and attentive with special reference to the excellent drivers, who had to drive for hours, sometimes in very tough conditions, but always with a smile. With a few additional tweaks, this tour will be perfect. Thank you Rixin and team. Lisa, Portugal
