    Asked on July 14th, 2025

    I am looking for 27th September to join your tour as a single traveller. 1. I plan to arrive 21/22. September in Kathmandu. Would this be enough for the Visa? Do I need a Chinese Visa as well or is this Visa enough? 2. are there enough people for the tour at this date? 3. I would like to go back by land. How is the time frame on the end of the tour? On day 7 in the description there are sights in Lhasa, I doubt that it is possible to go back in just one day (day 8). please tell me more about it. 4. unfortunately I will know in 3-4 weeks if I can book this tour. Is this still ok? 5. are there any additional costs but single room (195) and visa fee (125)?
