Tibet Discovery & Everest View Expedition

China is an immense country where you could spend months travelling through its landscapes and still only touch the surface. This trip is there for all to see, from impressive archaeological sites and stunning dramatic scenery to the friendly charm of its people, particularly minority people.

Tibet has always exerted a fascination on visitors from the West – partly by its isolation and partly by there being no divide between the religious and secular in its unique past. In Lhasa, a Tibetan guide will reveal the cultural and religious heritage. You will see mystical temples in Tibet before your journey becomes more adventurous as you travel to Mt. Everest Base Camp.

This journey is perfectly constructed for those who yearn to discover Tibet and which offers guests the exciting opportunity to travel on the new railway line between Qinghai and Tibet. This 2500-mile-long railway is the highest in the world, reaching 16,640ft above sea level at the Tangula Pass, and crosses the breathtaking landscapes of the Tibetan plateau where herds of yaks, gazelles and wild donkeys graze beneath the snow-capped Himalayas in one of the remotest corners on earth.
