Tibet Tours & Packages
From a quick Lhasa break to the classic overland run to Everest Base Camp — every tour includes permits, an English-speaking guide, and a private vehicle beyond Lhasa.
Everest & Namtso (8 Days)
Lhasa · Yamdrok Lake · Gyantse · Shigatse · Everest Base Camp · Namtso Lake
Tibet's three icons in eight comfortable days — the holy city of Lhasa, the north face of Everest at base camp, and the heavenly lake of Namtso.
Nyingchi, Everest & Namtso (10 Days)
Nyingchi · Lulang · Basom Tso · Lhasa · Yamdrok Lake · Gyantse · Shigatse · Everest Base Camp · Namtso Lake
Tibet's fullest highlights, eased in gently from the east — fly into green Nyingchi to acclimatize, then Lhasa, the north face of Everest, and Namtso Lake.
Kailash & Guge (14 Days)
Lhasa · Yamdrok Lake · Gyantse · Shigatse · Everest Base Camp · Saga · Mount Kailash · Manasarovar · Guge / Zanda
The full pilgrimage to Tibet's far west — Everest, the three-day kora around sacred Mount Kailash, holy Lake Manasarovar, and the thousand-year-old ruins of the Guge Kingdom at Zanda.
Holy Lhasa (4 Days)
Lhasa · Drepung Monastery · Sera Monastery · Potala Palace · Jokhang Temple · Barkhor Street
The shortest trip that still does Lhasa properly — the three great Gelug monasteries, the Potala, the Jokhang and the Barkhor kora, at a pace that lets you acclimatise instead of race.
Everest Express (4 Days)
Lhasa · Yamdrok Lake · Gyantse · Shigatse · Everest Base Camp · Shigatse · Lhasa
Everest in four days for travellers who have already done Lhasa — straight out along the Friendship Highway to base camp at 5,200m, a night under the north face, and back.
Lhasa & Everest (7 Days)
Lhasa · Yamdrok Lake · Karola Glacier · Shigatse · Rongbuk · Everest Base Camp · Shigatse · Lhasa
Lhasa to the foot of Everest in a week: two days in Lhasa to adjust to the altitude, Yamdrok Lake and the Karola Glacier on the road west, a night below the north face, and Tashilhunpo on the way back. A shared group that leaves on fixed dates.
