Tour Overview

Embark on the journey of a lifetime with our 15-day pilgrimage to Mount Kailash, the sacred "Jewel of Snows." This tour takes you from the cultural heart of Lhasa, across the vast Tibetan Plateau, to the foot of the world's holiest mountain.

You will acclimatize while exploring the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple, then travel overland via the stunning Yamdrok Lake and Gyantse to Shigatse. Experience the awe-inspiring North Face of Mount Everest before heading west into the wild Ngari prefecture. The highlight is the challenging yet spiritually rewarding 3-day trekking Kora (circumambulation) around Mount Kailash, believed to wash away the sins of a lifetime.
