Journey through the spiritual heart of Tibet from Lhasa to Shigatse — two ancient cities connected by turquoise lakes, glaciers, and high mountain passes.
A six-day private luxury tour through Tibet's most sacred monasteries and breathtaking plateau landscapes.
The Lhasa to Shigatse Private Tour covers the cultural and natural highlights of central Tibet in six unhurried days. Begin in Lhasa with three days exploring the city's monumental landmarks — Drepung and Sera Monasteries, the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, and the Barkhor pilgrim circuit.
Then drive west across the plateau on one of Tibet's most scenic highways, crossing Gampala Pass at 4,790 meters for your first view of the turquoise Yamdrok Lake, passing the massive Karola Glacier spilling down the mountainside, and stopping at the ancient town of Gyantse before reaching Shigatse.
Along the way, share a home-cooked meal with a Tibetan family beside Yamdrok Lake and hang prayer flags at Simila Mountain Pass. This tour is designed for travelers who want Tibet's essential experiences — sacred sites, genuine local encounters, and raw high-altitude beauty — delivered with private transport, luxury hotels, and an expert Tibetan guide.
