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 Base Camp trip and etc.
