Sacred lakes, Buddhist monasteries, Tibetan towns and Everest Base Camp: experience the trip of a lifetime traveling from Lhasa to the border with Nepal on this seven-day tour. Unmissable!
On the first day of your tour, you'll be picked up from Lhasa Airport or the main train station and transferred to your hotel in the Tibetan capital, where you'll be left to relax ready to explore the fascinating region of Tibet over the coming days.
After breakfast at your hotel, your guided tour of Lhasa, which has been Tibet's religious and administrative capital since the 17th century, will begin. You'll head to Potala Palace, the former winter residence of the Dalai Lama, where your expert English-speaking guide will reveal the history of the royal complex. At the same time, you explore the White Palace and the Red Palace.
Continue your discovery of Tibetan culture and history to the next stop on your tour: Jokhang Temple. Here you'll find yourself in the spiritual heart of Tibet, and you'll have the opportunity to watch pilgrims performing Buddhist religious rituals.
You'll then delve into the nearby Barkhor district, a lively area of Lhasa known for its popular old market and for being an important site on the pilgrimage route to Jokhang Temple. Immerse yourself further into Lhasa's vibrant culture sampling a traditional Tibetan tea alongside the locals.
At the end of your second day, you'll enjoy a welcome meal in a local restaurant, for a delicious introduction to Tibetan cuisine. Mouth-watering!
After recharging with breakfast at the hotel, we'll embark on a drive to the picturesque ancient village of Dadong, considered one of the most enchanting villages in Lhasa. Upon our arrival, we'll explore the Nyimatang Monastery, a remarkable 11th-century structure.
Then, we'll meander through the village's quaint streets and have the opportunity to meet a local family, gaining insights into their way of life. To cap off this immersive experience, we'll share a traditional meal with them.
Our next destination is the Sera Monastery. While here, apart from marveling at the grand Buddha painting on rock and the intricate sand mandalas, you'll be treated to an engaging debate among the resident Buddhist monks. It's a sight to behold!
As the day winds down, we'll return to our hotel in Lhasa, where you can unwind and relax.
On day four of your tour, you'll say goodbye to Lhasa after breakfast, setting off for Shigatse. This city is nicknamed the "Gateway to Everest", and you'll soon see why as your journey takes you through the magnificent mountain landscapes of the Himalayas. You'll pass over Gangbala, a towering mountain pass at 16,400 feet (around 5000 meters), where you'll have a picture-perfect view of Yamdrok Lake and the sacred mountain of Nyenchen Khangsar.
Continuing through the Tibetan countryside, we'll arrive at the historic town of Gyantse, which welcomes us with a view of the Korola Glacier and Manak Dam Lake. Here, you'll visit Palcho Monastery or Pelkor Chode, and its famous Kumbum, a multi-tiered stupa containing many Buddhist chapels.
Finally, enjoy a brief guided tour of Shigatse before settling down for the night at your hotel.
Following breakfast, you'll explore the Tashi Lhunpo Monastery, founded in the 15th century by the first Dalai Lama. Did you know this important religious complex is home to the best-conserved statue of the Jampa Buddha?
After exploring the monastery, you'll leave Shigatse behind and head towards Lhatse, where you'll rest and have lunch before returning to Mount Everest Nature Reserve. You'll be captivated by the incredible views of the Himalayas from the Gawula, or Pang-La, Mountain Pass.
Spend the night camping in Rongbuk, a unique experience thanks to your location right next to Base Camp of the world's tallest mountain!
Today, you'll enjoy one of the most magical experiences of the tour and probably of your entire life: watching the sunrise over Mount Everest.
You'll then visit Rongbuk Monastery, which is said to be the highest-elevated monastery in the world, before making your way to Everest Base Camp itself, a trip you'll never forget.
Having made the most of your time at Mount Everest, you'll head back on the road. Drive past snow-capped mountains like Shishapangma and beautiful lakes like Paikutso in the direction of Kyriong, a town located near the border with Nepal, where you'll spend the final night on your tour of the Himalayan Mountain Range.
On the last day of your tour, you'll be taken to the border between Tibet and Nepal, where your 7 day excursion will end (border crossing not included).
