Overview

This 7-day small-group overland tour travels from Lhasa to Kathmandu via the Sino-Nepal highway, including a visit to Everest Base Camp (EBC). The tour begins with a pick-up from Lhasa airport or train station at designated times. From Lhasa, the route passes through the Tibetan countryside and visits the historic cities of Gyantse and Shigatse, where travelers see important religious and cultural sites reflecting Tibetan heritage. The tour includes a bus trip to Everest Base Camp, located at the foot of Mount Everest, providing views of the Himalaya and reaching the highest base camp on Earth. Transportation is by comfortable van or minibus with an experienced local driver. Accommodation is in 3-star hotels based on twin-sharing or guesthouse dormitories. Breakfast is included each day. Entrance fees to all listed tourist sites and the Everest Base Camp Echo bus are covered. Oxygen is provided in the vehicle to support health at high altitudes. The tour includes Tibet Travel Permits and other necessary permits, as well as an English-speaking local Tibetan guide. Drinking water is provided during the trip. Insurance for accidents or casualties is included. A Chinese visa invitation letter can be provided if needed. A Tibet handy map and platform service fee are also included. Lunch and dinner meals are not included. Transfers from the Nepal border to Kathmandu, a distance of 130 kilometers, are not part of the tour and must be arranged separately. Guests must provide photocopies of passports and Chinese L visas at least 20 days before travel to allow time for Tibet Travel Permit processing. Booking must be made at least 12 working days in advance to secure permits. Guests flying from Kathmandu to Lhasa should not apply for a China L visa in advance but obtain a Tibet Group Visa through the China Embassy in Kathmandu with assistance from the tour supplier. Guests flying or taking the train to Lhasa from within China must apply for a China L visa from their home country. A valid passport and visa used for the Tibet Permit application must be carried during travel. Hotels are based on double occupancy; single room supplements apply if a private room is requested or sharing is unavailable.
