- JHJane· January 9th, 2025My husband and I recently completed the Lhasa Tour from Kathmandu, and overall, it was an incredible experience. The tour was well-organized, and everything went smoothly from the moment we were picked up in Kathmandu. The arrangements, including transportation and guides, were top-notch, ensuring we could fully enjoy the breathtaking landscapes and cultural experiences. The accommodations were basic but manageable, which is typical for the region. One thing to note, however, is that restroom facilities along the way were in very poor condition—this is beyond the control of the Peregrine. I highly recommend carrying hand sanitizer and being prepared to use open toilets when necessary. This small inconvenience was easily outweighed by the stunning scenery and unique cultural experiences. Despite these challenges, the tour provided a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore Lhasa’s spiritual and historical landmarks. The visits to Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple were unforgettable highlights. If you’re prepared for a bit of adventure and some rustic conditions, this tour is an amazing way to experience the heart of Tibet. Highly recommended!Show more

- AAnonymous· September 26th, 2024The 8-day Lhasa tour from Kathmandu was a fantastic experience with some truly incredible views. The journey from Kathmandu to the Tibet border was a bit rough, as the road conditions weren't great, but it added to the adventure. Once we crossed into Tibet, the scenery was breathtaking, and every stop brought something new and exciting. The accommodations were quite basic, but that’s to be expected on a trip like this. Overall, the tour was well-organized, and the new cultural experiences made it a trip to remember. Highly recommend it for those seeking adventure and a glimpse of Tibetan culture!Show moreTrip date: September 2024

Asked on January 21st, 2025Do I need to apply for Chinese visa / Tibet permit in India or this process will be done by your agency in Kathmandu? How many days does it take for the visa and permit once I am in Kathmandu?
- Peregrine Treks and Expedition Pvt LtdOperator•Written January 2025
For Indian citizens, the Chinese Group Visa and Tibet Travel Permit will be processed directly through our agency in Kathmandu. It takes three official days to complete the process. To ensure a smooth application, I recommend you arrive in Kathmandu on 9th April 2025, before 9 AM. This will allow us to start your visa application process on the same day. You will receive your visa on 11th April, and your Tibet trip will commence on 12th April 2025.

Traveler•Written January 2025What happens if the visa and permits are rejected after I arrive in Kathmandu? I read somewhere that tourists with Indian passports aren't allowed to travel on this trip, hence I was concerned.
- Peregrine Treks and Expedition Pvt LtdOperator•Written January 2025
While travel to Mount Kailash is restricted for Indian passport holders, other Tibet tours, including our 8 Days Lhasa Tour, are open to Indian citizens. In the rare event your visa is rejected, we will refund the full tour cost except for the visa fee (USD 125). If the Chinese immigration finds restricted materials upon inspection, you may be denied entry at the border.

The road to Shigatse, Everest Base Camp, and the Nepal-Tibet border is currently closed and is expected to reopen in late January. We have many groups scheduled for February. Please note that Tibet will be closed in March. However, you can confidently book your trip for April, as the roads will definitely be open by then.
