8-Day Lhasa, Nyingchi, and Bome Tour

Experience the Mysteries and Vitality of Tibet

For travelers who would like to immerse themselves in the unique culture of Tibet and discover its natural beauty, taking an adventure to the west after visiting Lhasa for the desert-like plateau landscape and the roof of the world is not the only option. Eastern Tibet with its beautiful lakes, vast forests, and snow-capped mountains could overturn your imaginings about Tibet.

If you would like to mix cultural experiences and nature discovery without long trudges and basic accommodations on your Tibet tour, this 7-day Lhasa, Nyingchi, and Bome tour is the best choice for you to experience the mysteries and vitality of Tibet.

Tour 'Wow' Points

Pilgrimage to the Palace That's 'Closest to Heaven'

Immerse yourself in the exquisite chambers on the Potala Palace. Discover the secrets of building this amazing palace.

Walk a Local Tibetan Kora (Religious Circuit) on Barkhor Street

Have a city walk to experience the lifestyle and the spiritual world of local Tibetans. And then try a cup of butter tea in a nunnery that is less visited by ordinary tourists.

Watch the Exciting Debates between Monks at Sera Monastery

Catch a unique study activity of the Tibetan monks with a timely visit. This is unlikely to be seen in other monasteries.

Witness the Most Beautiful Snow Mountain in China

Stop at a platform for a magnificent view of Nnamjagbarwa Mountain. Its main peak is more than 7,700 meters (25,000 ft) above sea level. Hang a prayer flag and make a wish toward the holy mountain if you like.

Walk in a Fairyland of White and Pink (for tours in April)

Discover eastern Tibet, which might be totally different to your impressions of western Tibet. Snowy mountains and peach blossoms present a deceptively tender and soft Tibet in spring.

Have a Moderate Hike to See the Biggest Glacier in Tibet (for tours in winter)

Explore a holy lake, which is usually overlooked by travelers driving along Tibet's most beautiful highway. Marvel at blue ice on the third largest glacier in the world.

Taste Tibetan Snacks in a Local Family's House

Visit a local Tibetan family's house to experience the Tibetan lifestyle on a plateau pasture. Enjoy some homemade Tibetan snacks and a friendly conversation.

10 out of 10 in every aspect! Our guide in Tibet, Yangkyi, was incredible, also. When our flight into Lhasa was turned around due to inclement weather, she remained in close communication with us and really worked hard to ensure we were able to see the things we wanted to see in our remaining time. She was able to get us into Potala Palace before the afternoon crowds and immediately recognized that my husband was suffering from a slight case of altitude sickness due to the elevation. She gave us excellent advice on how to deal with his altitude sickness and even brought oxygen for him when we visited Yamdrok Lake and the nearby glacier which are at an even higher elevation than Lhasa. more Apr 2024, Patricia M
