We are 2 adults arriving to Lhasa May 18th (afternoon) and leaving on May 20th (afternoon). We'd like to get 1day tour and the rest time just wolk around Lhasa. Of course, Permit to Tibet for us also is needed. Could you please provide prices and conditions. Thanks.
Hello,
I'm interested in the YAMDROK TSO LAKE DAY TOUR. I would like to know the price for 1 adult male.
I'll be in Lhasa from September 12th - 16th. The tour can be on September 14th or 15th.
I will need a Tibet travel permit for my entire stay as well!
Thanks and look forward to hear back from you!
