Key Considerations
Most operators require a refundable security deposit for the motorcycle, ranging from $120 to $200.
Prices usually do not include international/domestic airfare to Leh, lunch, personal travel insurance, or fuel (though some premium all-inclusive packages may include fuel).
If you prefer a private room rather than sharing with another rider, expect to pay an additional $350 to $500 depending on the length of the trip.
