    Trip Itinerary

     

    Explore Tibet’s treasures: Everest, Kailash, Mansarovar, colorful monasteries and the amazing Tibetan landscape

    Tibet Tour with Everest Base Camp and Kailash is an incredible trip that starts in Lhasa where we explore the architectural wonders of the Potala and Norbulingka palaces, which are both former homes of the Dalai Lama, tour prime monasteries and the busy Barkhor Bazaar. We continue our drive across the arid Tibetan plateau to Shigatse, Sakya and Rongbuk exploring the towns’ fascinating monasteries and fortresses. Located at the foot of the mighty Everest, Rongbuk Monastery is the highest monastery in the world.
    This all-encompassing Tibet tour also takes us to the base camp of Mt. Everest, the highest mountain on earth. Our next stop is at Mansarovar Lake which is a beautiful sacred lake shrouded in Buddhist and Hindu legends. However, we won’t start our Kailash kora until the tenth day of our trip which then lasts for three whole days. By the end of our ‘Tibet Tour with Everest Base Camp and Kailash’ we will have had a chance to marvel at the extraordinary Tibetan landscape, the rich culture of its people, and the deeply embedded spirituality that makes Tibet so mysterious and fascinating at the same time.
