Ladakh and Kashmir

This region’s cuisine is as diverse as its landscapes, blending North Indian cuisine with flavors from the Himalayan region and Central Asian influences.

Popular dishes like rogan josh (a flavorful lamb curry), yakhni (a yogurt-based curry), and dum aloo (spicy potatoes) are served with rice or rotis. The region is also famous for its elaborate wazwan—a ceremonial meal featuring a variety of meticulously prepared dishes served during special occasions. The use of saffron, dried fruits, and yogurt adds distinctive flavors and richness to the dishes

Guest Experiences

Served over 23000+ happy travelers

Our three-week trip with our five-year-old son took us first through the tropical south in Kerala and then along the 'Golden Triangle' in the north, including detours to several national parks. This enabled us to get to know two parts of the country that were very different in terms of culture and landscape and to experience at least some of India's diversity. We will always remember the impressions of the lives of the people and nature. Despite the intense experiences, we were able to relax thanks to the accommodations (oasis of peace) that were well-selected by the travel agent. The conversations with our two drivers and the people in the host families were enriching. We hardly came across any Western families. With a little travel experience, however, even small children are no obstacle to traveling to this exciting country.
