Tibet Tours & Holidays

Lonely peaks, Buddhist monasteries and welcoming people. Tibet is a place unlike any other.

Centuries of isolation have lent the kingdom of Tibet a deep sense of spirituality and mysticism. Once upon a time you could only get there after conquering treacherous terrain and fierce warrior monks, but now – despite the complex political situation – Tibet’s open for travellers to explore. Surround yourself with smoke, incense and the murmuring of the faithful in endless temples and monasteries and experience giddy Everest views. Cross high-altitude passes, twist through towering peaks past plodding yaks, and discover contemporary Tibetan life – a mix of pilgrims and pop music, monks and mobile phones.

I loved this trip. It was to a part of the world difficult to travel in solo and Intrepid made it easy.

An Unforgettable Journey to the Roof of the World My recent Tibet: Beijing to Kathmandu Overland trip with Intrepid Travel was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we set foot on the Great Wall to the breathtaking views of Everest, every moment was filled with wonder and awe. Our guide, Pema Tashi, was an exceptional leader, his passion for his homeland infectious and his knowledge seemingly endless. He effortlessly navigated the challenges of high altitude travel, ensuring everyone felt safe and comfortable. His deep understanding of Tibetan culture and Buddhism brought the journey to life, providing invaluable insights into the region's rich history and spiritual traditions. The itinerary was thoughtfully crafted, offering a perfect blend of cultural immersion, natural beauty, and personal challenge. The overland journey, including the epic train ride and scenic drives, showcased the diverse landscapes of Tibet, from vast plains to towering mountains. I was particularly impressed by Intrepid's commitment to responsible travel. The trip supported local communities and minimized environmental impact, allowing us to experience Tibet in a sustainable and meaningful way. This journey was not just a trip; it was a transformative experience that left a lasting impression on my heart and soul. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone seeking adventure, cultural immersion, and a deeper connection with themselves and the world around them.

Tibet: Beijing to Kathmandu Overland

Holly · Traveled May 2024
This trip was one of the best travel experiences of my life. Tibet is like nowhere else on earth both in landscape and culture and I will be forever grateful to Pema our leader for sharing his home with us. Be aware that the train can be cramped and throughout the trip the standard of cleanliness in toilets was lacking - as long as you can deal with that you will have an incredible trip. Suggest booking prenights in Beijing to explore on your own.
