15 Days Mt Everest and Mt Kailash kora pilgrimage group tour

У меня было удивительное время в Тибете, и это, без сомнения, опыт, который я буду помнить до конца своей жизни. Я очень благодарен нашему водителю и нашему гиду Lobsang. Лобсанг был чрезвычайно профессиональным и сделал его невероятно образованным, интересным и комфортным. Я бы очень рекомендовал его другим путешественникам.

Тибет - это много всего. Его нельзя суммировать в нескольких словах. Тибет обширен, привлекателен, противостоит (не то, что я ожидал), красивым, волшебным (ритуалы в храмах, тибетские скачки, которых я видел, гора Кайлаш)) были чрезвычайно особенными. Его также бросают вызов (медленно двигайтесь на Высокой высоте), онемение окунания (много часов в фургоне / автобусе между пунктами назначения) и некоторые из них (но хох, который является частью общего опыта). Память о Коре вокруг горы Кайлаш будет со мной годами. Однако базовый лагерь Эверест действительно не был особенным - но, по крайней мере, я могу сказать «был там и сделал это»! Руководство было дружественным (спасибо Lobsang), полезно и всегда доступно. И, конечно же, часть опыта - встреча с новыми людьми, с которыми вы делитесь опытом в течение всего 15 дней. , Любил!

Great Tibet Tour made my dream of visiting Tibet come true. Tashi - The guide were fantastic, sharing rich stories and cultural insights. The trip was well-organized, and I felt safe and cared for throughout. Incredible experience!

We had an amazing pilgrimage with this wonderful company which lasted 15 days. We were able to spend our time very peacefully and if any problems were to arise, we were able to be in contact very quickly with the travel agent who understood our needs very well.

This was a private tour the organization and attention to detail was fabulous. Our guide was very experienced and helped us adjust tot the altitude. He also guided us thru the Lora hike with focus on safety. He was very knowledgeable in local lore and was patient in explaining the same. Highly recommend.

I planned my trip with Great Tibet Travels last year (2019) during July. This trip has changed my life for the better. The tour company and the tour guide Darghye were wonderful. During my 3 day trek, Darghye walked beside me to the most part and gave commentary. This man is knowledgeable and knows what he is talking about. Darghye kept an eye on all members on the tour and periodically asked us how we are doing altitude sickness wise. Remember while doing the trek, think positive and take baby steps and this may change your life for the better. Regarding the tour company they were kind enough to upgrade my hotel location at a couple of locations for no extra charge. Trek Planning - Fitness: I am a New Yorker and moderately fit. Before going on this trip, never in my life walked more than 5 miles a day. I started off with walking 9K to 10K steps per day at a moderate pace for a few weeks. I took it to the next level by walking around central park - this takes about 16K steps in about 3.5 hours and this I used to do every weekend. Since we lived in a high raised building, every day I used to climb stairs (sometimes 10 floors and sometimes 20 floors). Maybe a few times I walked on the treadmill in the Gym with inclination set to 14 for about 15 minutes. Trek Planning - Medication: I scheduled an appointment with my PCP - got the prescription for diamox and antibiotics. I also took with me tylenol, motrin, a miniverion of first aid kit. Trek Planning - General: You can read as much as you want on fitness but one should learn to know and listen to ones’ body. I carried some nuts and granola bars and do not forget ponchos Trek - Altitude Sickness: Diamox will do its job and you do your job. Remember to take it easy the first few days, no need to run or get excited, let me body adapt. My mantra initially was to walk like a snail, take small steps (remember to listen to your body and keep your mind in a positive state). I did get headaches and took tylenol.

Overall, Great Tibet Tour provided us a wonderful trip through a very beautiful part of the world which included the 3 day Kora around Mt. Kailash. Our guide Tashi was a very knowledgeable regarding the places, customs, traditions and Buddhist beliefs. He constantly made great efforts to make sure we had everything we need all hours of the day and night. Our driver Pemba was very professional and consistent in his role of getting all of us safely from destination to destination. When setting up the tour, our contact from GTT Beatrice was fantastic to work with. Her prompt, friendly, warm and diligent customer service. There were some minor issues along the way due to lack of proper communication from the company but were resolved quickly. Would recommend GTT for anyone wanting to see the wonder that is Tibet.

Incredible value providing a 5 star Tibet travel experience with a 2 dollar sign price. An itinerary to Tibet and its Kailash Kora are perhaps the most logistically challenging itinerary possible, especially considering the Tibet permit, innumerable checkpoints, unpredictable weather conditions, high altitidute sensibilities, etc. This tour program & guide completely take over, and so one just has to worry about getting the best photo op instead. Service is incredibly friendly, and made additional requests like Tibet train and hotel room change a breeze. Madeleine (tour consultant) and Mithun (our tireless tour guide to Kailash) were outstanding, infectiously passionate professionals. Kailash is a life-changing experience, so come prepared, fit, informed and respectful. My highest recommendations!

Finally, we come back home. We are very pleased with our Tibet tour, even if I am a little bit tired. Thanks for excellent service and cooperation proving by Great Tibet Tour. I will contact Great Tibet Tour for my next China tour in 2022. We have two guides for the whole tour. One is Dajie who picks us up at the airport; the other is Lobsang who helps us with the sightseeing in Tibet. Dajie is fantastic and knowledgeable. Lobsang is humorous and helpful. We are both pleased with these two guides. The guide plays an important role on the whole tour. Our driver is very skillful. We feel safe in his car. We are looking forward to my next Tibet trip with Great Tibet Tour.

I did an adjusted 12 day tour of Tibet, from Lhasa to Everest, and then through to Mt Kailash for the kora trek, and then to the Nepali border to head to Kathmandu. I took the train from Beijing to acclimatize to the altitude, which was a very good idea. This trip was in early June, and we had spectacular weather throughout. This trip was made to be great by our tour guide, Lobsang, who was friendly, knowledgeable, and great at answering all questions necessary. The driver, Pasa, provided great transport. Thanks again to Cherry, for organising this trip, and assisting with extra questions throughout the organisation of the trip, and during the trip. This tour group is a great size. We had 9 people on our tour, which was perfect. Highly recommended.
