Highlights:
One of the most popular tours to Tibet is this 8 day package, where we start with a spectacular overland journey on the 920km stretch of road, known as the Friendship highway between Kathmandu and Lhasa. The overland trip is one-way, as the return trip concludes with the breathtaking Trans-Himalayan flight from Lhasa to Kathmandu.
The trip offers an amazing insight into the life and culture of the friendly Tibetan people. The journey encompasses visits to the ancient monasteries where monks continue traditional chanting, many temples and stupas, and culminating at Lhasa, the most stunning architectural wonder of Tibet. During this journey, natural wonders abound of mountains, rivers, and lakes including the tranquil shores of the Turquoise Lake (Yamdrok Tso).
This trip departs early morning from Kathmandu to Nepal-Tibet border at Kodari, a distance of 116km, and takes about 5 hours drive. After completing immigration formalities on the Nepal and Tibet/China side, our Tibetan associates will meet us and take care of our tour arrangements until our departure from Lhasa to Kathmandu.
