Lhasa Everest Base Camp Kailash Tour 2024 Overview

Filled with spectacular scenery and stunning cultural visits, the Lhasa Everest Base Camp Kailash tour truly is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

We organize small group trips for this tour and you are free to join us in either Kathmandu or Lhasa. The tour starts with a comprehensive briefing overview of the trip in Kathmandu followed by a sensational trans-Himalayan flight to Lhasa, which passes over Mount Everest and many of the highest peaks in the world if you begin the tour in Kathmandu.

If you are to begin the tour in Lhasa, arriving from anywhere in mainland China or taking a new train from Beijing or Chengdu to Lhasa you will be briefed about the tour by our Tibetan Guide.

Mount Kailash, situated in the far west corner of Tiber, is the most sacred peak of Asia. This 6,700m beauty resembles a symmetrical cone-shaped rock, permanently capped by pure crystalline ice. The mountain is recited in various mythological and literary works, dominating the north Himalayan Bariers skyline.

Lhasa Everest Base Camp Kailash Tour

Mt. Kailash aka Mt. Kailas as it can be colloquially known is revered as the holiest pilgrimage site by Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bön-Po. Tibetans regard this mountain as the manifestation of Mount Meru, “the navel of the earth” where the founder of Bon religion, TonpaShenrab, is believed to have descended from heaven, Hindus as the abode of Lord Shiva, Buddhists as the abode of Samvara and Jains as a sacred site where their prophet, Rishaba attained spiritual enlightenment.

With its four sheer walls, distinctive snow-capped peak, and valleys interspersed with brightly-clad Tibetan pilgrims, Mount Kailash or Kang Rimpoche (‘precious snow-peaks, as known by the Tibetans) is an awe-inspiring sight. Four great rivers of Asia: the Karnali, the Indus, the Sutlej and the Brahmaputra (Tsangpo) originate from here.

A three-day trek (Parikrama or Kora) around Mount Kailash over a 5,630 Drolma La (pass), clockwise for Buddhists and Hindus, and anti-clockwise followers of the ancient Bon religion, is said to erase the sins of a lifetime.

To complete the Kailash pilgrimage it is said that you should bathe in the sacred Lake Manasarovar, stunningly set on the Tibetan plateau bordered by the majestic Gurla Mandata.

On the journey to Mt. Kailash across the windswept Tibetan plateau, you will see cliff-top monasteries, wild-looking but hardy and hospitable Tibetans, yak caravans journeying over snowy passes, and the great peaks of the Himalayas with a foreground of grazing herds, yak skin tents, and a glittering turquoise lake. Journeying through Norbulingka, Sera and Drepung monasteries, Potala Palace, Jokhang temple and Barkhor markets, you will immerse into a world of ancient Tibetan culture and traditions, living amongst the civilizations.

Kathmandu-Lhasa-EBC-Mount-Kailash Tour

A place in faraway land located at the top of this world, a curious mind was anxious enough to find out what is so auspicious about this Reverend land. After making some initial queries with close friends, collecting valuable information, intriguing mind, of course, led us to contact a traveling agency involved in arranging the tours for this religious and pious place for certain religious pilgrims and for others a trekking experience. Getting in touch with this travel agency was a monumental discovery in itself. You may as well say in other words our initial queries; with our friends was a Godsend a gift to us. Memories of this trip are innumerable and filled with breathtaking experience and will remain with us forever. Our precious gift was our contact with a pure and gentle soul named Mr. Ram Kumar Adhikari of Alpine Eco Trek Expedition. Ram Kumar looks after your needs from start to finish in detail without leaving any stone unturned to make your journey comfortable, enjoyable and memorable.Experiences such as a reception at the Tribhuvan Airport at Kathmandu Nepal, to hotel reception and services provided by the hotel staff, were impressive. Hotels are personnel employed along with management were very courteous, helpful with extraordinary services during our stay. In reference to our minor issues, Ram Kumar Adhikari took care of our problem very swiftly. Whatever we encountered were resolved and taken care of right away. This place at the top of the world known as Plateau of Tibet is a breathtaking place out of this world. One has to see and experience personally what I am talking about. It not just for religious pilgrims, trackers, and hiker are equally attracted to this scenic and adventurous place. One of the amazing qualities of this gentle soul is politeness, helpful to you every step of the way, quick responder, to your queries, well mannered, without a wrinkle of anger on his forehead. All the guests visiting his agency are looked after as if they are his family members. We personally experienced this hospitality with send-off was a surprise to us. His answers to our queries were efficient, transparent and to the point without any periphrasis. That is what we as foreigners visiting from a faraway foreign land was looking far. Ram Kumar showed no sign of any worry, always with ease, encouraging every one of us with a smile, words of wisdom and positive attitude until the last few hours before our boarding with China Air Line to Lhasa our boarding permit and visa arrived. We, My wife and I are very high praise of Ram kumara and sincerely appreciate for his wonderful and commendable services in stronger terms as humanly possible. Lhasa driver and the guide were both excellent making our 17 foreigners from Canada, USA, Russia, Nepal, Singapore, and Holland journey, safe jolly and smooth without any hitch anywhere what so ever. Exceptionally well organized and timely services provided by his organization. Information of any kind, the transitional experience went flawlessly. I would not hesitate to give you our personal experience if anyone requires. It was absolutely a unique experience for us when we visited Kailash Mansarovar during our trip in June 2017. My only interest in writing this review is to let no foreign traveler be misguided or taken for a ride by unscrupulous agencies or their managers. You can be assured you will be treated and looked after very well again depending on the weather conditions in this difficult terrine. Dear Ram Kumar Ji hats off to you for providing us such a unique and wonderful experience of our lives. With sincere thanks.

The best Kailash tour operator in Kathmandu

We are a French couple, my husband and I went to Nepal and Tibet several years before. We asked Alpine Eco Trek to organize our 3 weeks trip. The famous Mt Kailash tour and the trek until the Everest base camp.

First, during several months before the validation of the trip, we were impressed by the relationship by email, the very clear answer to all of our questions, their way to find the best compromise and the sense of details, then, arriving at Kathmandu, a warm welcome and a very good organization of Alpine Eco Trek team lead by Ram, the incredible owner of the agency.

We have had already in the past experience with 3 other travel agencies at Kathmandu but this time, no comparison, the service was there, a nice and quiet hotel in the heart of Thamel, our visa in time, always someone to look for us, no bad surprises during our trip. Mt Kailash tour, Manasarovar Lake and Everest base camp are great places to visit and we were lucky sunshine every day but cold.

We recommended Alpine Eco Trek agency to our friends. You can trust this travel agency, they will organize the best trip for you in Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet and much more. with smiles and efficiency.
