2. How Many Days Does It Take to Tour Tibet?


The ideal duration for your Tibet tour depends on your interests, destinations you wish to visit, and activities you plan to experience.  

For a classic Lhasa tour, we recommend allocating 4 days to explore the city's cultural highlights. If you'd like to include the breathtaking Namtso Lake, please add 2 more days to accommodate the scenic drive. The popular Lhasa to Everest Base Camp (EBC) itinerary typically requires 8 days——this includes 3 days in Lhasa for sightseeing and acclimatization, followed by visits to EBC on days 4-5 before returning to Lhasa.  

For travelers combining Tibet with Nepal, the 7-day Lhasa to Kathmandu overland tour via EBC makes an excellent choice, crossing into Nepal on the final day. Those seeking a spiritual tour may consider the 15-day Mount Kailash pilgrimage tour in Ngari. Adventure enthusiasts can choose from various trekking or cycling itineraries ranging from 5 to 23 days depending on the route and difficulty level.  

Our travel consultants would be delighted to help customize your perfect Tibet itinerary based on your specific interests and time availability.
