Even though Ladakh is a safe and welcoming tourist destination, you still need to make certain preparations that will make your trip even more enjoyable and memorable:

In Leh-Ladakh, only post-paid mobile phones, ideally BSNL, Airtel, and Jio, are supported. It's best to let your loved ones know ahead of time that they shouldn't be concerned if they can't reach you since phones may not operate in many locations.

The majority of Leh does not have a mobile phone service. BSNL is more reliable in this area, however you may also discover signals from Airtel and Jio (Leh, Hunder and Diskit).

Internet speeds in Ladakh aren't what they used to be.

As temperatures may fall as low as 5 degrees even in the summer, it's a good idea to have a light pair of woollen pants with you at all times.

Carry sunscreen, sunglasses (goggles), and a hat to protect your skin from the sun's direct rays, which may cause sunburn.

Do not forget to bring your identification card. Passports, visas, voter registration cards, and Aadhaar are all acceptable forms of picture ID.

While travelling in the mountains, be hydrated and consume nutritious food and fruits to prevent dizziness and high altitude sickness due to curved roads, low air pressure, and dry air.

Make sure you have painkillers for headaches, stomachaches, and vomiting on hand.

At least 7-8 hours before arriving in Leh, you may take diamox (ideally before going to sleep). You may even take it before boarding the aircraft to Leh. The medication may be taken or not. Recuperating for a few hours and drinking enough of water is recommended after arriving in Leh.

There are ATMs in Leh that let you to withdraw money. During busy periods, these machines see large lines of patrons and often run out of money. Another problem is the lack of connection. You should always have enough cash on you.

The Buddhist and Muslim traditions of Ladakh should be respected. Brotherhood and peace are values held by all residents in this community. The same is expected of visitors by the locals.
