Experiences Beyond The Ordinary

Our tour groups have regularly been able to participate in experiences available to no other tours. In the past, we have often visited privately with Tibetan families in their homes and had private audiences with abbots of leading monasteries and received special spiritual blessings from them.

Lhasa to Nepal, Mt. Everest & More!

You will have a full week in the holy city of Lhasa and see the "real" Tibet that few visitors ever experience. On this one-of-a-kind trip you will embrace the majesty of the Himalayas on a five day drive in modern buses on the road from Lhasa to Nepal. This will include rare and breathtaking photo opportunities from mountain passes that reach up to 17,500 ft. You will spend the nights in historic cities, in a hotel near Mt. Everest, and in picturesque mountain towns. You will stop at virtually isolated monasteries and towns where foreigners are still a curiosity. Plus much much more!

On this trip we plan to visit: Exotic Kathmandu, capital of Nepal. The Yarlung Valley, home of the ancient Kings of Tibet. Yumbhulakhang and the Temple of the Ten Thousand Pearled Tangkha. Samye Monastery, one of the most important sites in Tibet, since Tibetans believe that the soul of the recently deceased travels first to Samye Monastery. The Jokhang Temple and the Norbulingka, meaning "Jewel Park", the summer palace of the Dalai Lama. The Hospital of Traditional Tibetan Medicine where we will hear talks from Tibetan physicians who practice here. Our tour also includes a visit to the herbal medicine dispensary. Sera Monastery, one of the two great monasteries near Lhasa. The Potala Palace, home to the Dalai Lama before he fled the Chinese occupation in 1959. Drepung Monastery, the largest monastery in Tibet once had over 10,000 monks, and housed the State Oracle nearby as well. Ganden Monastery, once considered the most powerful monastery in Tibet. The Barkhor, the street that encircles the Jokhang that is both a sacred pilgrim path and a lively market place. Gyantse, the site of Palkhor Monastery and the Kumbum Chorten. Plus Much More!
