Important note
• Booking at least 60 days prior to departure, as we take charge of the request for Tibet Permit.
• All people can get Tibet Permit through travel agency except diplomats, journalists and senior government officials who should travel to Tibet under the arrangement of Foreign Affairs Office of local government.
• As most places in Tibet lie over 3500m, most visitors are likely to experience some minor symptoms and discomfort of altitude sickness upon arrival. We suggest drinking plenty of water, eating light, high-carbohydrate meals to help the body to acclimatize faster.
• Potala Palace gets a limitation of 2300 person per day to protect this historical heritage, we promise the visit of Potala Palace during your stay in Tibet, but the date and time could be adjusted to availability.
• In Tibet, vehicles are not installed with Air Condition as it consumes gas, which is not environmentally friendly.
• SIC Tours include 1 stop at a commercial store during each excursion. These visits will last up to 45 minutes, and the shops used represent local specialities such as silk, pearl, cloisonné and jade.
