Get ready for a fantastic adventure with our Glimpse of Nepal and Tibet Tour! It’s not just a quick look; it’s a chance to step inside the vibrant world of Kathmandu, the peaceful beauty of Pokhara, and the jaw-dropping mountains of Tibet. You’ll see dazzling peaks that touch the clouds, ancient temples whispering stories of the past, and friendly faces that welcome you with warm smiles.
Imagine Nepal and Tibet as two chapters in a book connected by the mighty Himalayas. This mountain range is home to the tallest peak in the world, Mount Everest! Even though they’re neighbors, these two countries are more different than they are alike. Their customs, religions, landscapes, and even the way they travel are unique.
In Nepal, you’ll wander through bustling markets filled with colorful spices and find peace in hidden temples draped in prayer flags. Then, in Tibet, you’ll stand in awe of vast, empty plains and explore ancient monasteries high in the mountains. But even with all these differences, there’s one thing that connects them: the kind spirit of the people. Both Nepalese and Tibetans are known for their generosity, their warm hospitality, and their passion for their traditions.
This shared spirit brings people together in the most remarkable ways. You might share a cup of tea with a local family, watch a lively dance performance in a village square, or even find yourself joining in a prayer chant that echoes through the mountains. Nepal and Tibet are like sparkling kaleidoscopes, waiting for you to explore their hidden corners and discover the magic they hold.

Important Travel Note
In accordance with a recent directive from the Chinese Government, specific travel restrictions are in place. Travelers who enter Tibet from Nepal by road are not permitted to depart from Lhasa via a flight. To accommodate this regulation, we have curated the Tibet Overland Package as an alternative to flying back from Lhasa. It’s important to note that, at present, no direct flights are operating between Lhasa and Kathmandu.
As a result, your revised itinerary will be as follows:
Day 01: Arrival in Kathmandu
Day 02: Kathmandu Sightseeing
Day 03: Drive to Pokhara
Day 04: Pokhara Sightseeing
Day 05: Drive back to Kathmandu
Day 06: Kathmandu to Kerung
Day 07: Kerung to Tingri
Day 08: Tingri to Shigatse
Day 09: Shigatse to Lhasa
Day 10: Lhasa Sightseeing
Day 11: Lhasa Sightseeing
Day 12: Return to Shegar
Day 13: Return to Kathmandu
Day 14: Departure
It’s important to note that should the Chinese Government introduce a direct flight route from Lhasa to Kathmandu in the future, we will offer the option of a Lhasa to Kathmandu flight instead of the overland tour. Your flexibility and understanding in this matter are greatly appreciated, and we will keep you updated on any developments regarding the travel arrangements.
