Physical Examination – Make a Rational & Relaxing Tibet Tour Schedule

Seniors planning a Tibet tour are highly advised to take a physical examination in advance. Tourists suffering heart diseases, hypertension, coronary disease and diabetes mellitus are not advised to go Tibet. It is necessary to get professional advices from the doctor for tourists suffering these diseases but have a strong will to go to Tibet. During the Tibet tour, the seniors should introduce your physical condition to the doctor so as to take effective measures in time.

Seniors making a Tibet tour could not go to bed early or get up early as usual and that is already a hard thing except for the toilsome tour schedule. Hence, the tight schedule with too many sites in a day is not suitable for seniors at all. On the contrary, seniors planning a Tibet tour are advised to choose the relatively relaxing schedule so as to ensure enough rest time and preserve your physical strength throughout the journey on Tibet Plateau.

Time – Choose Suitable Travel Season

Seniors planning a Tibet tour should avoid the peak season of Tibet tour so as to avoid the danger caused by overcrowded tourists. On the other hand, making a Tibet tour in the low season would save tourists certain budget in air ticket or accommodation. For seniors suffering the cardiovascular or respiratory diseases, the season with cold climate is not suitable for a Tibet tour. The hot summer might also threaten the health of the seniors. Hence, the spring and autumn with pleasant climate are the best seasons for seniors planning a Tibet tour. The peach blossom landscape in Nyingchi in April attracts a large number of seniors every year.

Scenic Spots – Consider the Comfort Level of the Scenic Spots

While choosing the scenic spots for Tibet tour, seniors are not only advised to choose the scenic spots you've never been to but also should take the climate, geographical condition and comfort level of the tour destinations into the consideration. The seniors are always advised to visit the lakes rather than the high mountains since it involves certain hiking activities inevitably if you are visiting the mountains. The gorgeous lakes in Tibet, such as the noted Yamdrok Lake, Namtso Lake and Ranwu Lake always make seniors be reluctant to leave.

Preparation – Take Every Aspect into Consideration

Before departure for Tibet, seniors are strongly suggested to get some information regarding the recent weather condition in Tibet through the weather forecast program so as to prepare the most suitable clothes and articles for daily use. A portable pair of shoes is always necessary for seniors. Some commonly used medicines, such as the medicines effective in reliving or curing the carsickness and cold. Medicines effective in coping with the high altitude sickness should also be prepared. A walking stick would be quite useful if there are many trekking activities in the schedule.

Besides, seniors making a Tibet tour should also choose a comfortable hotel with relatively better accommodation condition so as to ensure a good rest. Balanced diet is also very important for seniors on Tibet Plateau. Enough water drinking and fresh fruits could help you to get adapted to the high plateau environment well.
