Overview

Tibet Shangri-La Tour is not just a family getaway; it's an emotional escapade into a realm where the ancient whispers of Tibetan life blend seamlessly with the majestic landscapes of the Himalayas. This package, designed with families in mind, promises not just a break from routine but a profound encounter with the soul-stirring treasures of Tibet.


As you board the flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa on the first day, the sheer beauty of the Himalayas unfolds beneath you, creating a celestial spectacle. It's more than a journey; it's a celestial dance that erases fatigue and breathes new life into your spirit. Upon landing in Lhasa, the city cradled in the arms of sacred mountains, you're guided to your hotel. Take your time to soak in the altitude, letting the essence of Tibetan air rejuvenate your soul.


The second and third days weave a tapestry of cultural exploration, with visits to Jokhang Temple, Barkhor market, Potala Palace, Sera, and Drepung monasteries. Strolling through the streets of Lhasa, you'll not only be buying souvenirs but immersing yourself in the vibrant life that pulsates through the city. Your children, amidst these ancient structures, will not only learn the history but also understand the values of respect and love deeply ingrained in Tibetan living.


On the fourth day, the journey takes you from Lhasa to Tsedang, traversing the roof of the world at 3,450 meters. En route, a pause to visit Samye monastery unveils the rich tapestry of Tibetan spirituality. The fifth day, dedicated to Tsedang, brings encounters with Yumbulakang and Thandurk Monasteries, where the echoes of centuries-old stories resonate in the air.


Finally, on the sixth day, as you bid farewell to Tibet, the experiences gathered in this short sojourn become treasures etched in your family's memory. Flying back to Kathmandu or your onward destination, it's not just a physical return but a departure from Shangri-La, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for ancient monuments, the wisdom of Tibetan culture, and a sense of gratitude for the moments shared as a family. The Tibet Shangri-La Tour is more than a mere itinerary; it's an emotional voyage, a chapter in the book of your family's adventures that will be cherished for a lifetime.
