Tibetan Expeditions staff at Lake Manasarovar
The Tibetan Plateau offers myriad possibilities... It is a world like no other and our specialty is designing tours specifically to suit your interests.
We offer a variety of package tours for private groups including the highlights of Lhasa, Everest Base Camp, Mount Kailash, Qomolangma National Park, Lake Namtso - and combining Tibet with China & Nepal if you wish -
or we can tailor a tour or trek specifically to your needs - just let us know how long you have, how many people in your group, when and where you want to go.
We also recommend some of the Tibetan areas outside the Tibetan Autonomous Region - these are fascinating areas which have rarely accepted the political authority of Lhasa. Very strongly Tibetan and are not subject to permit restrictions.
Authorities have announced they are again issuing permits for foreigners to enter Tibet after April 01.
SPECIAL: Kailash & the Guge Kingdom for Saga Dawa (May 10-28) - Group departure is confirmed!
A vast, diverse, ancient and complex land - a world of infinite variety and infinite possibilities, encompassing some of the world's most ancient traditions and longest history along side the most advanced technology and modern architecture.
Geographically China offers everything from beaches to rice terraces; vast deserts, barren plateau, forests, alpine lakes and the fertile heartlands crossed by the great Yangzi and Yellow Rivers.
Huge, modern metropolis' and tiny rural villages. The food, the people and the cultures are as diverse as the landscape - the possibilities are endless.
The “Land of the Thunder Dragon”, jealously guards its lifestyles and traditions.
Nestled deep in the eastern Himalaya, unknown to much of the world, it is a land of magnificent mountains, lush valleys, thick forests, a serene lifestyle and traditions unchanged for centuries. Towns are little more than villages, with quiet streets lined by decorative shops and houses. Colorful prayer flags highlight natural and man-made features of the landscape, adorning houses and bridges; standing atop ridges and mountain passes and in forest clearings. Our Bhutan tours and treks introduce you to a new world.
Explore the natural and cultural wonders of Mongolia, one of Earth's last remaining wilderness frontiers. Largely inaccessible to western travelers until recently, Mongolia offers a rare glimpse of an ancient nomadic culture that has changed little over the centuries. Discover in this untouched land the rare combination of ancient Buddhist traditions, a nomadic horse-based culture and an incredible natural beauty - high mountains, vast grasslands, volcanic lakes and the expanses of the harsh Gobi Desert.
The lure and romance of Nepal comes from its very remoteness. Nestled high in the Himalaya the kingdom was closed to the outside world until 1951. Since then it has become one of the premier tourist destinations of the world.
To trek in Nepal is to walk at your own pace along well-established village trails. It is not a test of endurance, but a stimulating way to enjoy magnificent scenery, a rich and ancient culture and make contact with villagers whose life styles have remained unchanged for generations.
