Tibet

Tibet is a place of majestic beauty, barren plains, and the highest and arguably most beautiful mountains on the planet. Hidden from the rest of the world by the Himalayas for many years, it’s often called ‘the roof of the world’, and exerts a strong fascination for travellers.

Retreat Travel offers a range of holidays to this wonderful country, from the spirituality of Mount Kailash and the wonders of Lhasa and the Potala Palace, to the extreme physical challenge of mountain biking from Lhasa to Kathmandu.

Tourism in Tibet is strictly controlled by the Chinese government and nowadays travellers need to stay with an organised trip and make sure they have the right paperwork. Retreat Travel has many years’ experience of travel in the region, and will make sure your trip runs smoothly so that you can make the best of your time.

The situation for foreign travellers to Tibet is constantly changing, and the Chinese authorities suspend travel permits during sensitive periods. If you are interested in visiting Tibet, please contact Retreat Travel for advice in the first instance.
