Highlights of the Trek |
|
Description :
Tibet remains one of the most
interesting, remote and undeveloped
parts of the world, situated at an
average elevation of 5000m (16000 ft)
above sea level. Its limited tourist
facilities are now approaching a
reasonable standard.
Strictly speaking this is not a trek but
a driving expedition.
A trip to Tibet is not for the faint
hearted, the travelling can be hard,
adventurous and often unpredictable. The
road is often very dusty with the
possibility of delays due to snow.
With Tibet\'s high altitude, travellers
with a history of heart, lung or anemia
problems should consult a doctor before
considering a visit.
This trip offers a spectacular insight
into the life and culture of these
friendly people - from the ancient
monasteries with chanting monks, to the
tranquil shores of the Turquoise Lake
Yamdrock coupled with the breathtaking
Trans-Himalayan flight from Kathmandu to
Lhasa.
