Experience splendid isolation in the lap of luxury at the exclusive Chamba Camp at Thiksey in Ladakh, a region renowned for its dramatic scenery, colourful culture and breathtaking landscapes. Set between the Kunlun Mountains and the Himalayas, this new glamorous tented camp offers the ultimate nomadic camping experience.
Individually designed, the 14 Maharaja-style tents are exquisitely furnished and feature ornate king-size beds, signature camp furniture, en suite bathrooms with hot showers and a butler service. Each tent is air-conditioned and includes a private deck offering stunning views.
The concept of the camps is to take you far off the beaten track, yet have a base that offers all the luxury you want. By day you can visit the ancient city of Leh and the Thiksey monastery, watch a game of polo, raft along the Indus River or enjoy a picnic. Afterwards, return to the camp for evenings by the fire, talks from experts and gourmet cuisine served under the stars.

Chamba Camp at Ladakh is glamping at its best; just lay on your bed and you’ll be rewarded with views of cobalt blue skies, snow peak mountains and wild flowers. While here I highly recommend a hike up to Thiksey Monastery, which is located beside the camp, to experience the morning prayers and to listen to the monks chanting. It begins at around 6:30am and is a magical experience not to missed.
