Do you have any departures other than May? Do you have anything closer to September? What would be the cost only for the tour with no international flight as I am coming from Canada?

there is only that one departure for this tour. If you are flexible you could join our 25 days tour in Tibet inlcuding Western Tibet and Mount Kailash departing on 9th July.

Would NOT need to flights from and to Germany, I would arrange my own transport to the starting point and also from the exit point. Is that possible? Can you be that flexible or not?

It's too late to join that trip. It's better to get in touch with us at least 2 months before as we need to handle visa and permit issues.

Do you have this same tour with an English speaking guide?

Our German speaking guides also can speak English. Furthermore we will have a local Tibetan guide on our side who speaks English.

I am Australian with little German language skills but I would love to join this tour if you don't limit it to German speakers. I always wanted to travel the G318 after visiting Litang on a Kham tour. Amazing mountains. Please advise.

China has opened up to foreign tourists in march. Since then we do not receive that much inquiries to make our tours run in this year. Therefore I suggest to keep an eye on it for next year. You are very welcome to join.

  If interest changes and the September trip progresses I would like to know. Getting the visa and travel permits takes time.
