There is no direct bus running from Delhi to Leh. You have to change buses about three times. Firstly, you have to take a bus from Delhi to Manali, then from Manali to Keylong and then lastly you have to catch a bus from Keylong to Leh. It will be a long journey so you can even stay for a night at Manali and Keylong from where you have to change the buses. This will also help you in better acclimatization.
