About this ride:
In July, 2017, I had the opportunity to join the second leg of the 14th edition of the Royal Enfield Himalayan Odyssey. This ride, organised by Royal Enfield, has (over the years) grown to become an iconic journey through the Himalayas. I joined a group of over 50 motorcyclists at Leh, and together, we rode through some of the most scenic and challenging routes in Ladakh and Spiti.
I got to ride the Royal Enfield Himalayan on this trip and really put it through its paces in the terrain that it is truly meant to be ridden.
Route: Leh - Khardung La - Hunder (Nubra Valley) - Khardung La - Leh - Upshi - Tanglang La - More Plains - Lachungla La - Baralacha La - Sachu - Keylong - Gramphoo - Chatru - Kunzum La - Kaza - Nako - Kalpa - Narkanda - Chail - Solan - Chandigarh

Toll Free Traveller awesome video sir really touch my heart sir thank you for this kind of video sir
Hi Ashok !! We own the same bike (RE Himalayan).. its just that you seem to be doing a lot more with yours than I do with mine :) Great Video was looking forward to this post..
EDIT: My bad. I just figured after watching the whole video that you rented it and had to return it .. what do you think of the Himalayan though? Want to hear it from a guy that really put this thing through what it was built for in the first place..
Binoy Vudi should i take RE HIMALAYAN OR DOMINAR 400
I have come to realize that your purpose in life(or atleast one of the purposes) is to fill peoples hearts and souls with unexplainable feelings through your vlogs. I hope you never have to stop and wish you luck 🤓 😀
it was a worth waiting bro.. such a beautifully captured video and the way you explain your journey is simply awesome.. would love to join you in your future journey.
You make really good videos that i always enjoy, and once again your country is lovely.
Thanks a lot, Glenn!
Thank you for liking India
There is this guy who just has 17k subscribers and MNikhil has 4.5 lakh and what he shows in motovlogging ...tea ,coffee breaks 😓 this guy deserves more followers
Nithin shetty You forgot Shanice bro
Vinay Kumar hahaha...aaj kal ke vids me bahut😂😂
Thats why I unsubscribed him.
Vinay Kumar yea 😂 and that female has 50k subscribers.. I don't mind if they have followers or they are growing,content must be good ..they post shit that sound he makes while having tea 😖 unsubscribed
With the support and help of all of you watching and sharing, I'm sure the channel will grow. The journey has been fun so far and I'm sure it will only get better. Thanks, all of you.
I spent 5 days in my motel room with the runs, 5 days only taking fluids, lost 8kg in weight. But I still will never forget the amazing Himalayan s.
This is the difference between a stereotypical motovlog and a proper motorcycle adventure. Love your work brother, love that you take time to actually explore.
Thanks a lot! :)
@@TollFreeTraveller can you tell how you got a bike on leh for rent to ride....is it available whole year or it was a special occasion
I have been collecting videos on the RE Himalayan; I own 5 bikes, but fell in love with the Himmer! I clicked on your video (one of 47 videos on my playlist) and had NO IDEA that I was about to watch a piece that is a work of art.
Congratulations on your adventure, and thank you so much for all your hard work in bringing this video to the world!
Who all liked the video by just opening it and will watch it later 😎😬🙌
Rohit's video, i get notification, i watch it, or i wont be at peace...

Great adventure! That river crossing with the truck looked hard..! Greetings from Norway :)
It was nerve-wracking. Steep drop on the other side.

Excellent video. You captured the essence of adventure riding well. Spectacular place on Earth, and choice of music and tone of voice make it very pleasant to watch.
Thanks so much, Peter. I appreciate your words of encouragement.
Excellent video, really felt I was experiencing the journey (I wish!). Great advert for the Himalayan too!
17:35 Children welcoming 😍 love it.
They were so happy and friendly.

Hi Naveen. The Himalayan Odyssey is a ride organised by Royal ENfield. If you keep track of the "Rides" page on their website, you will get all the information about their requirements for participation. Yes, couples can go too.
Toll Free Traveller Thank you so much for replying...... I did look into the page and found the price but is this price with or without the bike?
Naveen Shivaprakash what is the price frnd?
Exelent filming
Love those mountains and India (stunning)
michael fraser thank you!!

Man.... You deserve many many more subscribers.. You bring happy people into videos. God bless you.
Thanks a lot! :)
Hi Rohith, I am a recent subscriber to your channel! I am truly amazed by the kind of motovlogging that you are doing... I have watched tons of Leh-ladakh motovlogs..right from Nikhil to Raj and many more.. But I must say that the way of narration is different and THE BEST from what I have seen on other channels.Also, seeing you reply to all the comments is great!! You are truly being an inspiration for me to take up the Himalayan Odeyssey Womens edition 2k18
All the very best to you for your future rides.
and btw, why didnt you take your thunderbird??
*clicking the bell icon righhhht away*
Thanks a lot, Vaishnavi. It's great to have you here following my content. You totally should go for it in 2018. I think it will be a life-changing experience for you. All the best, and thanks again for the support!
Hi greetings from yaakob 🇸🇬 👍💕💪 CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU GUYS 👍👍👍💪💪💪
Whatta poetic narration...!! ♥ Never seen such a gentle human being so far.
I have been watching all your videos in one go!!!
Keep up the awesome work Rohith.

Your new Sub
MN... Makes me wanna run to the mountains..⛰️
But lock down is killing it 😶
Together let us OVERCOME this epidemic.. Just like the riders in this video 🤞🤞
Focusing on work when I see your notification is quite tough. Gotta blame you if my reports are not ready on time. 20 min video, but makes a person think and dream for the next 20 hrs.
Hahaha. What's life without a few good dreams! Hope you got that report in on time :)
Glad I watched this. Nice job.
*Hey I see your video of himalayan of America to alaska. Great man, when I see adventure and biking videos I had goosebumps and feel jealous that I want to do something badly*
I really enjoyed this video. Great narration. Looking forward to seeing more
17:24 most exciting and wonderful part of this video. I usually watch this over and over again for this part.
17:30 hello bhaiya!!! aaahh..!!soo sweet. happy innocent faces😘😘
Hahaha. Cutest kids!
Toll Free Traveller exactly 😍
Awesome experience mann ! You nailed it..... I also dream of this ladhak tour. So excited to watch this video. #tollfreetraveller you really a motivation of other riders, i keep enjoying your videos (THANKS FOR SHAREING YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH US)
Your Big FanBUNTY SINGH
Thanks a lot, Bunty :)
From your camera places look more beautiful compared to other vloggers..Keep it up sir :)
Thanks for watching and supporting, Sandeep
Your content stands atop most of vlogger I have come across so far, I follow a lot of Indian and foreign motorcycling channels and I speak from experience, you are desi gem in motovlogging. Your filming, story telling, editing everything is top notch.
Never change your style. This is what separates you from mediocre vloggers.
Keep the wheels rolling rohith...
Yeah, I have also come across some motovloggers and they have subscribers in millions but I found them overrated. This guy is a gem. I just discovered(for me) him today😄
9:58 i was like woooo hooooo noooooooooo ! rohith man..this is freaking scary dude !
awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee episode ! i so want to travel like this !
and plz dont say sorry for posting late ! best things come late...
Hahaha. It did get quite exciting. Glad I captured those moments and was able to share them with all of you.
I'm new to your channel and watching your initial videos. Tbh, you're the finest and sweetest narrator I've seen in motovlogs. Keep inspiring ❤️
Thank you. It's good to have you here
13:20 u guys have balls of steel !
Brings back memories.I did a solo ride to both ladakh and spiti this may. Spiti sure is much more adventurous than ladakh and more enjoyable(for me).I miss it already.
Oh wow. That must have been quite something.
a journey worth watching ( as always ) , lovely !
Thanks a lot!
hie..I saw your vblog.. and it's amazing.. the experience you shared on himalAyan odisey was just short and sweet..hope u explore more and come up with some more good blogs. all the best for your next expedition.
Thanks a lot!!
Hey man your videos are great. Fresh of breath air when it comes to moto vlogs. Camera editing and your passion of course amazing. Would love to meet if possible. Thank you the video was really good
Thanks a lot. I'm sure we will meet someday.
I just loved your video... it was crisp with some very good edits making it more interesting. This season I have been viewing quite a few riders to Ladakh and would like to appreciate that your video is one of the best till date.
Thank you for sharing this great trip. Loved the filming, narration and scenery.
Thank you for watching!!
nice video man! I am from Austria, and just bought a Himalayan, cant wait to get her up into the mountains!
Its always great to see u hit the roads...the more i see ur videos the greater the urge arises to be part of those mountains...thanks as always for all the inspiration
Hope you do trips of your own soon. Thanks, Amit
What an exciting trip. Pretty tough motorcycles to take that kind of abuse.
It definitely was exciting. The motorcycle took a heavy beating, but the core held up well.
Those were surely the worst water crossings ever caught on video, need to be a brave rider to undertake that journey!!
They really were quite tough!
I was shivering and shaking just watching that water crossing with the lorry on the right and the drop on the left. That was as brutal and hardcore as I've ever seen. And your friend was still smiling while dragging the bikes through ice cold water! Outstanding video, one of the wildest motorcycle rides ever.
You will be the Top MotoVlogger soon enough man! Even if you don't get them subscribers, Those who will follow you, Will be your hardcore followers! Love your quality!
Thank you. Hope you guys all share and help my content reach more people too. Thanks for the support
Such an amazing wonderful journey...thanks a lot for sharing such a divine visual treat with all of us...Stay Safe,,, Ride Safe.....
Thanks a lot, Sampad!
bro!! i've been eagerly waiting for your video.... ;)
I have watched videos of other vloggers who participated in himalayan Odyssey.. and I was thinking whether u r there in d Odyssey or not....I m glad to see your video bro.. ;)
Hahaha. Yeah, but I only did the second leg. Thanks for watching :)
Tollfree Traveller U Da Man! I love your narration and your down to earth and sincere style without gimmicks. Beautifully done just like your other videos.
awesome experience..I am very happy as kids in the video 😊😊
Thank you. THose kids were really sweet!
Rohit! This Vlog showed the true essence of the great Himalayas. I wonder how difficult it is for our country men to maintain the petrol station at the highest altitude. Kudos to your great work on the video mate.
Thanks, Vamsi. The people in the mountains go through a lot more effort for even the most basic things. It's amazing to see how they adapt and survive.
One more mind blowing video, best moto vlogger in india
GOVINDA GUPTA do check mumbiker nikhil bro he is also awesome
+Ameer suhailks I'm nikhils subscriber since he had only 10k subs, m a big fan of his too, but toll free travellers I find him little bit better
GOVINDA GUPTA fine bro both of these guys r nice
Ameer suhailks lol mumbiker nihkil is just fucked up egoistic kid with some dads money. these are the real moto vloggers of india. more subscribers doesn't mean he is the best. I don't evem consider him motovlogger. he tries to be so innocent in front of camera and most of time he succeeded fooling his viewers but only those people knew what's his personality when they met him on unexpected occasion.
Thanks for the support, Govinda!
It's been a pleasure to watch your adventure, especially since, when the Covid virus allows, I will be travelling many of these same roads.
What month did you travel? And did you go at the best time, or is there another time of year that is better for taking a motorcycle along those roads?
I was there in July, which is not a great time because of the rains. June is good, otherwise towards the end of August. Way much nicer then
Watching this video made me feel like i was part of Himalayan Odyssey, thankyou for making the video.
Nice video journal..I love it!..I've never seen this model before (Royal Enfield). anyway you guys are awesome. Wish to ride there one day
Thanks a lot :)
Probably you inspire more guys to seek adventure than anybody else keep doing the way you are are doing your usp is your language and your fantastic poetic description of what s around you.BTW how is the Himalayan ? would you trade it for your Thunderbird?
THank you. That's a tough one. DO read my blogpost comparison of the two on www.tollfreetraveller.com
What a great vlog enjoyed every bit of it,eagerly waiting for more videos from you and sharing it on my fb page. you for sure deserves billion likes,views and subscribers....Wonder when i get a chance to ride like this ...lots of love from uae.
Much kind of you. THanks for the support and for sharing!
This is most awesome ride of yours. One of my favorite video among all. Real adventure.
Thank you. It was quite an adventure
I was waiting for this video. Ladakh is every biker's dream but not everyone's cup of tea. Watched 11:12 to 12:00 twice. It feels great to see different places from your angel and listen to your travel stories.
Thanks, Arati. It's true. Ladakh is quite something and Spiti is a whole different level
17:30 SMILES ON EVERYONE's FACE
True that!
Liked it before watching! I knew it will be something different and beautiful than the rest of those travel vlogs you see every now and then.
Thanks for the faith, Harsh
ur vlogs reflect what u are brother... a real passionate biker.. watching ur 15-20 min vlogs gives me a greater joy n satisfaction than watching any of my favourite full length movie.. keep riding ✌
That's really kind of you, Praveen. Thanks for the encouragement!
Great videolog. Good videography and easy to understand narration. This video is what I expect motorcycle travel videos to look like. Thanks for sharing.
17.25 WHEN THE KIDS GREET U MAN ! THAT MELTED MY HEART !!! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL JOURNEY BROTHER ! THANKS FOR SHARING
That was a lovely moment!
Refreshing to see someone from India actually touring the Himalayas instead of simply being part of a “Support” team.
Great job mahn......Simply the best i ve seen so far.
Thank you :)
Great ride!👍like from Latvia🇱🇻
Brother, looks like we're swallowing faster than we can chew.. we are already getting impatient for your next vlog.. PLEASE POST SOMETHING ANYTHING>. lol
New vlog is up, Binoy :)
Thank You.. I got a notification on my TH-cam Homepage :) Thanks a ton Rohith.
Loved it Rohit. This one of your's should actually get more than a million views. I mean it bro.
Thanks a lot. Hope that happens someday!
17:30 movement was Just Awesome 😍
I saw Karthik Bandi without his vandi
Aaj din Accha jayega
Hahaha.
+Toll Free Traveller miss those chai moments with you. haha
Hahaha. Good times :)
the view is magnificent man. I got goosebumps just watching this. I can only imagine what you feel when you're actually there
It's amazing, to say the least. Really unlike any other place in India.
himalayan VS thunderbird .. which one you find better ?
ktm
ktm are powerful but not comfortable for long rides
Do read my blogpost about this on my website. Here's the link - tollfreetraveller.com/royal-enfield-thunderbird-500-v-re-himalayan-my-thoughts/
If u want tourar then Thunderbird but if u want all in one then it's definitely Himalayan I have Himalayan it's awesome bike believe me brother u will love that bike and plz don't worry about performance it's very very good bike it has speed upto 140km ability on extreme off-road and a good Highway tourar
HIMALAYAN
Hi Rohith! Absolutely mesmerising experience!! Your videos are always those no nonsense ones, very professionally made and focussing always on what it is about "Riding". Waiting for you to upload videos always pays off !! You are the only rider who has also covered the beauty when you rode and not just blabber about how difficult the tarmac was. Would love to ride with you sometime !!
Very kind of you, Pranav. I'm glad that you are enjoying the content.
Hey if possible Review the Himalayan Motorcycle also.
I will do that at some point. For now, you might find my comparison of the Himalayan and TB an interesting read - tollfreetraveller.com/royal-enfield-thunderbird-500-v-re-himalayan-my-thoughts/
Your vlogs are calm and pleasant to watch and enjoy. Keep up the good work bro:)
Thank you, Raj :)
The best thing about your videos is that their is a sense of calmness in them...may be an extension of your own self, if m not wrong. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot, Aniruddha
Stumbled upon your vid. Lovely stuff bro. I am considering getting a himalayan and such videos really give me the confidence to bite the 'bullet'... So to say. Cheers.
A really well put together and narrated video. Scenery and camaraderie superb. That was one spectacularly abandoned truck at 07:00!
First rate, thank you.
Been thinking about getting a Himalayan now that they are in the U S. Excellent video. Thanks!
Great video, some good roads some bad, but that's part of the ride.... keep the video's coming.
Best video I've seen on RE Himalayan of what's capable of?
good video but does not need cheap background music, we need to hear the exhaust sound of Himalayan more.
Good quality content here. That stretch near that truck looked brutal! Subscribed.
I've been sick and stuck at home for the past couple of days. Watching your travels gives me the added boost to get well and get out to life asap. Love your work, keep rocking!!
Hahaha. THat's awesome. Hope you've recovered by now. Thanks, Vivek.
we took our duke 390 and could relate to each steps you followed through the difficulties. made us a better rider in the end :)
Ótimo vídeo.
Essa moto é fantástica.
E agora que tá vindo ao meu país (Brasil) Se Deus quiser logo comprarei uma dessa
Fantastic video, great scenery, the bike looks like its doing a good job! i hope to reach the Himalayan mountains some time soon.
A brilliant video. Looks like an amazing adventure.
Really loved it when those kids were jumping out of excitement..!! Literally happy tears came... !
Hahaha! :)
Fabulous! That's a great video, my friend 👍
Wow! Wonderful video story and great commentary too! Well done!
After i watched this video something happened in my heart and especially the childrens coming to you and their smiles
One more superb Vlog. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful videos.
One request, could you please prepare a comparison video of 'Himalayan' & 'Thunderbird'.
Since you have ridden both the bikes in similar terrain; your observations will be very valuable.
Thanks
Thanks, Sandeep. I wrote a blogpost doing just that. You can read it on my website using this link - tollfreetraveller.com/royal-enfield-thunderbird-500-v-re-himalayan-my-thoughts/
9:52 Really its OMG try
Suudenly stuck by this video and now you gained 1 sub .
