For
centuries Tibet has fascinated man-kind. This
land of mysteries was “forbidden land”
not only by man but also by nature. This land
beyond the mighty Himalayas on the highest plateau
of the world has appealed to so many explorers,
scholars, pilgrims and adventures in the past
hoping to find a real Shangri-La. Ever since
Tibet was opened to the world in 1985, Nepal
has become an easy and attractive gateway from
which to explore Tibet. We organize some regular
tours such as drive in-fly out or vice versa
8-day up to Lhasa, fly in-fly out 4-5 days.
Beside these we arrange treks and program of
your choice to Mt. Kailash, central Tibet, Everest
