My friend and I am currently organising a trip to Tibet. Tentative dates are: 13 Oct (sat) ~ 27 Oct (sat), for 15 days. We are still looking for 2 more persons to join us
We are currently getting quotes from tour agencies in China... Exploring getting into Lhasa either via train from Xining or flight from Chengdu. The exit route will be either train to Xining, flight to Chengdu or overland to Kathmandu.
Main places covered in the itinerary:
Within Lhasa
Namtso Lake
Yangbajing Hot Spring
Yamdrok-Tso Lake
Gyantse
Shigatse
Rongphu Monastery / Everest Base Camp (tibetan side)
The final itinerary, cost and entry/exit routes are not firm yet, pending replies from the tour agencies in China. Transport within Lhasa will definitely be on 4x4.
