Tibet tours main page

Delight in the successes of the Panda Breeding Sanctuary and discover Chengdu's ancient tea houses or explore the religious centers of old Kathmandu before visiting a very special area of central Tibet and make the classic overland journey across the Roof of the World.
In the heart of central Tibet the great temples, monasteries, forts and palaces of Lhasa, Gyantse, Shigatse and Sakya are powerful testaments to a long and volatile history and to the spiritual and artistic traditions of Tibetan Buddhism.

Skirt the turquoise lake of Yamdrok Tso, cross mountain passes topped by prayer flags, pass glaciers, barren hillsides and fertile valleys. Stunning views of Qomolangma (Mt Everest) and a trip up to base camp are a fitting finale to this incredible journey before we leave the Tibetan Plateau behind, plunging abruptly into a lush green world as we descend almost 2000 meters in just 30kms to the border town of Zhangmu.

The historic cities of the Kathmandu Valley reveal a vibrant world of color and life. The markets, bazaars and narrow streets are home to holy men, sacred cows, bicycles, street sellers… you name it, it is here.
