Q&A of Tibet Tour Quotation – Tailor-made Tour, Private Tour, Group Tour

What is the difference among Tibet tailor-made tour, private tour, and group tour?

Tibet tailor-made tour is totally designed according to your requirements. You could tell us your interests to Tibet, such as photography, trekking, culture, nature scenery, Buddhism, history, or Mt. Everest, etc, and your planned time, and the number of your people to make a perfect Tibet tour by your own. The quotation of Tibet tailor-made tour is calculated based on your destination, duration, accommodation and other additional service charges.

Private tour is a little similar with Tailor-made tour. You could decide your departure time and where to go, etc. For example, if you are interested in very breathtaking natural scenery of Tibet, we will recommend you Nyingchi Prefecture. If you are interested in the profound history and mysterious culture of Tibet, we will recommend you the Shannan Prefecture. If you just would like to experience the religious life of Tibetan people in limited time, we may only recommend you some monasteries in Lhasa City, such as Sera Monastery – famous for the Buddhist scripture debating, Drepung Monastery – the largest monastery in Tibet, etc. If you would like to have some trekking experience in Tibet, we could recommend some areas accord with your schedule. The quotation is also calculated based on your confirmed itinerary.

Group tour is characteristic of the most cost-effective itineraries of Tibet. It has the regular date, car types, and the general accommodation condition during Tibet tour, etc. For example, in 2013, we only start our group tour on Saturdays every month. The quotation is calculated for 2 people each, that is to say, if you would like pay US$ 379 for our 4-day Lhasa Tour, you have to find the other companions with you at least.

Q&A of Tibet Tour Quotation – Tibet Travel Permits Difficulties

Since 2008, Tibet Travel Permits are more and more difficult for foreign tourists to apply. Last year, Tibet has been almost closed for 9 months. That was very hard. The good news is that the situation may be changed in next month. Please feel free to contact us if you need to know the latest news of Tibet Travel Permits.

As of now, Tibet Tourism Bureau still requires 5 people from the same country with the same itinerary, same entry date, same entry city, and same entry way in a group. People who match the conditions will get the permits. Sometimes we are very willing to use every method we have to help our guests to get the permits even though they do not match the conditions. But we could not guarantee the 100% success rate.
