The price we have been quoted for the tour (by Sims Cozy Travel Agency) is 4030RMB per person for a party of 4. We have 3, we just need a nice person to join us!

This price does not include train tickets to Lhasa from Chengdu (a 48hr journey) - these are additional (we hope to get soft sleeper tickets which are 1104RMB. Hard sleeper is around 750RMB).

The price does include accommodation, a Tibetan English speaking guide and Toyota LandCruiser vehicle for the entire trip. It doesn't include entry charges to sights such as monastries and Everest Base Camp. It also doesn't include food and water but does include oxygen!

The schedule would be as follows:
Day 1 (19th October) - Train to Lhasa departs Chengdu at 6pm
Day 2 (20th October) - On the Train
Day 3 (21st October) - Train arrives in Lhasa at 6pm
Day 4 (22nd October) - Sightseeing in Lhasa
Day 5 (23rd October) - Sightseeing in Lhasa
Day 6 (24th October) - Sightseeing in Lhasa
Day 7 (25th October) - Lhasa -Yamtrok Lake-Gyantse-Shigatse
Day 8 (26th October) - Shigatse-Everest Base Camp
Day 9 (27th October) - Everest Base Camp-OLD Tingri
Day 10 (28th October) - Old Tingri-Zhangmu
Day 11 (29th October) - Leave Zhangmu for Nepal

You would be travelling with us (Vikki and Robbie) plus Robbie's mum - check out our blog if you want to get more of an idea about us before you contact us!

If you are interested, please contact us as soon as possible as we want to book the trip in the next couple of days (you have to book at least 10 days in advance to get permits organised etc).
