Package Overview

This extraordinary journey combines Tibet’s rich cultural heritage with an immersive high-altitude trekking experience around the eastern approaches of Mount Everest. The adventure begins in Lhasa, where you acclimatize while exploring the city’s most sacred landmarks, including the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Barkhor Market, Dadong Village, and the renowned Sera Monastery.

Leaving Lhasa, you drive through the breathtaking landscapes of Gyantse and along the turquoise waters of Yamdrok Lake to Shigatse, visiting the historic Khumbum and Pelkhor Stupas en route. From Shigatse, the journey continues through Tingri and Chutang to Youpa Village, the starting point of a spectacular trekking route through remote Himalayan terrain.

Over several days of trekking, you pass pristine alpine lakes, high mountain passes, lush valleys such as the Orchid Valley, and expansive grazing pastures, gradually gaining altitude while enjoying panoramic views of the Everest massif. The trek reaches its highlight at the eastern slope of Mount Everest Base Camp, offering a rare and awe-inspiring perspective of the world’s highest peak. After crossing challenging passes including Nangma-La, the route descends to traditional Tibetan villages before returning to Shigatse.

The journey concludes with a visit to the revered Tashilhunpo Monastery and a scenic drive back to Lhasa via the northern route, followed by transfer to the airport for final departure—leaving you with unforgettable memories of Tibet’s dramatic landscapes, spiritual depth, and unparalleled trekking experience.
