Tibet Tour

Known as 'the Rooftop of the World', a chance to experience the unique culture of the Tibetan plateau is the highlight of many traveller's trips to China. Living high up in the Himalayan mountains, the people of Tibet remain dedicated to their ancient customs and Buddhist faith, and their friendliness and warmth will make you feel at home.

To get to Tibet you can either fly or take the train. We can arrange all kinds of budget tours for you as long as you tell us all the places you want to visit in and around Lhasa. We have 8 years experience organising Tibet Tours and most of the staff have been to Tibet so we can make a detailed plan for your requirements with a reasonable price.

Notice: It is not possible for a Personal Permit. The only way to get to Tibet is to join a tour. For more information, please ask at reception.

Please book your train tickets 10 days in advance, then we can make sure you get it. Softer sleepers are very difficult to buy, because there are only 36 softer sleepers on the train.
