Option 02:Yunnan To Tibet 17 Days
Tibet enjoys
fame as "The Roof top of the World" - and the road from
Yunnan to Lhasa is the toughest road in the world,
offering surprising views and varied ethnic cultures
along the way. This trip covers all 'must-sees' in
Northwest Yunnan and southeast Tibet. This road was
saturated with different cultures and religions. The
ancient Tea Horse Road of this area was once busy in
transporting goods.
Discover and experience the
fabulous culture diversity and real Shangri-La. No doubt
it is the most fascinating journey of all. If Tibet is
the untouched area of the world, the eastern part of
Tibet, bordering Yunnan Province, is the untouched area
of Tibet. Decorated with virgin forests and crystal blue
lakes, this formerly inaccessible route offers
spectacular scenery as well as an opportunity to come in
contact with primary village cultures of Yunnan and
Tibet. This journey is one of those least traveled
routes into Tibet, starting with rich cultural
encounters in the non-Tibetan Himalayas, driving through
the breathtaking eastern region of Tibet, finally ending
the trip with the ultimate Tibetan experience in Lhasa,
its holy capital. The long drive on unpaved roads is
very challenging and sometimes dangerous, but the reward
is equally high and unforgettable.

Option 03:Chengdu to Lhasa
20days
The southern route to Lhasa is the most
scenic overland route, crossing several 4,000 m(13,123
ft) passes, dropping down through lush green valleys and
gushing gorges, and crossing picturesque landscapes that
Tibetans call their 'backyard.' We begin this three-week
journey from Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan, and
continue overland through Ganzi prefecture into the
Tibetan Autonomous Region.
There are only a few
roads that climb over the holy plateau to the capital of
Tibet; this journey will take you to villages and
communities previously closed to most travelers, both
geographically and culturally. Our Tibetan guide will
tell you about Buddhism and its many sects, explain
Tibet's history and teach you some phrases in Tibetan to
help you get to know the local people. Traveling by 4 WD
vehicles, we have the freedom to stop and explore
Tibet's sacred mountains and monasteries, stay with
local Tibetan families and take day hikes at your
leisure and whim.
