Tibet is situated on the Tibetan Plateau, the highest land in the world. East Asia encompasses modern China, including Tibet. Tibet represents barely 0.2% of the Chinese population. Tibet is an independent region of China that offers an exciting and adventurous mountain tour. Because of the high geographical location, the majority of the inhabitants work in animal husbandry and farming. Because the entire region is the hub of Buddhism, tourists may find a large number of monasteries in various locations, each with its historical significance. Aside from that, other religions, such as Hindus, Jains, and Bons, are warmly welcomed.
No doubt it is the ultimate adventure seeker’s destination, full of enchantment and tantalizing mystery. Tibet is surrounded by mountains, mysterious monasteries, and blue-green lakes, which enhance the beauty of Tibet to the next level.

Mount Kailash tour
Mount Kailash is the most unique trek that passes through Tibet’s Mount Kailash and Lake Mansarovar. Among Hindus, Buddhists, Jain, and Bon people, Mount Kailash is considered sacred. The site attracts pilgrims from around the world every year. Taking a sacred dip in Lake Mansarovar and completing the three-day Kailash Kora are top priorities for everyone.

Kharta Valley Trek
The Kharta Valley Trek is a difficult but rewarding adventure that takes you through steep valleys, high hills, and beautiful glacial lakes. The Himalayas provide some of the most amazing scenery in the world for trekkers. A highlight for many travelers is the remote Kangshung valley, known as the “Valley of Flowers.” The Lingam La (5320 m) is the highest peak reached on this incredible trek. On a clear day, the view from this vantage point is breathtaking. Many massive snow peaks can be seen to the south, such as Makalu, Chomolonzo, Lhotse Shar, and Lhotse. On our route back to Lhasa, we can stop by the North Everest Base Camp.
Everest-based camp
This is our most physically demanding, non-technical tour program. It is more difficult than climbing Kilimanjaro, Rainier, or Everest Base Camp (Nepal side). The advanced camp above Everest’s North Base Camp (EABC) on the Tibetan side is possibly the highest spot on the planet accessible without mountaineering abilities. Over 4300 meters (14,000 feet), you will spend over two weeks. With that said, we should highlight the fact that three people in their 50s, two in their 60s, and one in their 68s completed the 2004 EABC expedition. This vacation is designed for physically healthy people, who enjoy hiking and traveling and have no underlying health conditions that could be exacerbated by the high altitude over time. Despite the altitude, the walking is relatively gentle.
Cho Oyu Expedition
The amazing mountain located between Nepal and Tibet is Cho Oyu, which, at 8000 meters, is another renowned summit. Cho Oyu is the world’s sixth-highest peak, located approximately 70 kilometers west of Everest. The shortest but most picturesque route to the peak is from the Tibet side, which is also the simplest and oldest. The path has a low avalanche danger and this makes it more appealing to many climbers. In terms of geography, Cho Oyu is massively covered in glaciers and snow slopes.
The Cho Oyu Expedition begins in Kathmandu, with time allotted for paperwork and permissions, before traveling into Tibet. The trek to Cho Oyu base camp may be made by flying to Lhasa or driving over the Rasuwagadhi border. Our major goal is to help you reach the summit of Cho Oyu safely while also providing you with the most personal fulfillment and delight possible.
Lhakpa Ri expedition
Lhakpa Ri is becoming a more well-known expedition in Tibet as It provides excellent climbing in Tibet. It is pretty near Everest and was first climbed in 1921 by George Mallory as part of the Everest Reconnaissance Expedition. The expedition departs from Kathmandu via Tingri and the 5200-meter Everest Base Camp (also known as the Lhakpa Ri Base Camp). There are several choices for returning to Kathmandu after summiting the mountain. Either through Shigatse and Lhasa or directly back to Kathmandu. This new path will recall the exhilarating and lovely sentiments of a wonderful journey.
