What is the best train route to Tibet?

All trains to Tibet, whether you depart from Beijing, Chengdu, Xi’an, Shanghai, or Chongqing, pass through Xining , the gateway city where the Qinghai–Tibet Railway begins and the high-altitude journey to Lhasa officially starts. For most travelers, the Xining to Lhasa route (about 20 hours) is the best choice. It’s shorter, more comfortable, and covers the entire scenic Qinghai–Tibet Railway, however make sure you get the evening train so you can see most part of the highlights in the daytime. Many travelers choose to spend one or two days in Xining (elevation: about 2,275 m) before boarding the train, allowing time to start acclimatizing to the higher altitude while exploring nearby attractions such as Qinghai Lake or Kumbum Monastery. If you prefer a longer scenic journey, the Beijing to Lhasa (around 40 hours) or Chengdu to Lhasa (around 34.5 hours) trains offer an unforgettable cross-China experience with breathtaking plateau views.

Does taking the train help with altitude sickness, and is oxygen available on board?

Yes. Traveling to Tibet by train allows your body to adjust more gradually to high altitude than flying directly to Lhasa (3,650 m). The Qinghai–Tibet Railway is equipped with oxygen-enrichment systems, a central supply for each carriage and individual outlets at seats and berths. Oxygen begins diffusing automatically after Golmud (2,800 m) as the train climbs toward the plateau. While this helps reduce discomfort, altitude sickness can still occur, so proper rest and hydration are recommended.

What train classes are available on the Tibet train?

There are three classes on all Tibet trains: Soft Sleeper (4-bed cabin, comfortable and private, best for international travelers), Hard Sleeper (6-bed cabin, basic but good value), and Hard Seat (budget option, not recommended for long routes). For comfort and privacy, most travelers choose the Soft Sleeper . WindhorseTour can help arrange soft-sleeper tickets to Tibet if you confirm your booking 20 days in advance.

How far in advance should I book Tibet train tickets?

Tibet train tickets are released 15 days before departure and often sell out quickly, especially soft-sleeper tickets during the busy season from May to October. To secure your preferred route and seats, it’s best to book early through your Tibet travel agency. At WindhorseTour, we arrange Tibet train tickets only for travelers who have booked their Tibet tour with us, and we require at least 20 days’ notice to guarantee availability.

What documents and permits do I need for the Tibet train journey?

Foreign travelers must have a Tibet Travel Permit issued by the Tibet Tourism Bureau before boarding the train. This permit can only be arranged through a licensed local Tibetan travel agency, which will also organize your Tibet tour. A scanned color copy of the permit is generally sufficient to board trains from cities such as Xining, Chengdu, Beijing, or Shanghai, while the original permit will be checked again upon arrival in Lhasa. WindhorseTour, as a licensed Tibetan tour operator, handles all permit applications and ensures you receive the required travel documents before your trip begins.

What scenery will I see along the route, and when is the best time to take the Tibet train?

The Qinghai–Tibet Railway from Xining to Lhasa is one of the world’s highest and most spectacular train journeys, crossing the vast Tibetan Plateau at over 4,000 meters. Along the route, you’ll see the turquoise waters of Qinghai Lake , the majestic Kunlun Mountains , and the untouched wilderness of the Kekexili (Hoh Xil) Nature Reserve , home to Tibetan antelope and wild yaks. The train also passes Tuotuo river and the snow-covered Tanggula Pass (5,072 m) , the highest point of the entire journey, before descending through northern Tibet’s vast grasslands and alpine wetlands in Nagqu. The best time to ride the Tibet train is April to October, when skies are clear and the landscapes are at their most colorful. June to September brings lush scenery and peak travel season, while winter (November to February) offers fewer crowds and crystal-clear mountain views.

Xining to Lhasa train

Why to take the train from Xining to Lhasa Taking a train from Xining to Lhasa has become more and more travelers’ choice since its opening in the year of 2006. Compared with taking a flight to Lhasa from Xining, except for being more time-consuming, taking a train to Lhasa gives your body more time to acclimatize the high altitude, which can decrease the chance to suffer from the high altitude sickness upon stepping into Lhasa. Besides, it brings great rewards with breathtaking landscapes on the way. Among all the Tibet train routes to Lhasa from the seven gateway cities…

How to Get a Tibet Travel Permit (2026)

The Tibet Travel Permit, also called the Tibet Entry Permit, is a mandatory entry document required for all foreign nationals, overseas Chinese without a Chinese passport, and Taiwan residents who want to visit the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR). It is issued by the Tibet Tourism Bureau and must be arranged through a registered travel agency — you cannot apply for it on your own. Many travelers search for a “Tibet visa.” Tibet is part of China, so there is no separate Tibet visa. What you need is a valid Chinese visa (or qualify under China’s visa-free policies) plus the Tibet…

Tibet Budget Travel: 11 Tips for Cheap Tibet Tours & Saving Money

Tibet, here referring to the Tibet Autonomous Region, is known as the roof of the world. With its sacred monasteries, turquoise lakes, snow-capped peaks, profound spiritual atmosphere and unique culture, it attracts thousands of travelers every year. But many hesitate because of one concern: Tibet travel seems expensive. It’s true that the cost of a Tibet tour is generally higher than other parts of China, due to long travel distances, required permits, and the need for a licensed guide, vehicle and driver. Popular trips like Everest Base Camp, Namtso Lake, Nyingchi, or Mount Kailash can add up quickly. But here’s…

This was our second tour with Windhorse. We had had such a great experience on the Silk Road we felt we have found an operator on our wavelength and so opted this time for the Yunnan Highlands and got off the beaten track. As before, high standard of hotels and homestays, very carefully curated itineraries, and above all excellent guides and drivers which is what makes the trip so unforgettable. We will be continuing to use Windhorse for all our trips to China.

 Verified Trip of a lifetime
13 day Yunnan highlands cultural private tour This was our second private tour in China, booked directly with Windhorse Tour, and it won’t be our last. Last year, we started in Beijing and then began a Silk Road tour from Xi’An to Urumqi in Xinjiang, and the experience was breathtaking, so Windhorse Tour is an all-China travel specialist and their experience, contacts and knowledge are not just localised to the areas bordering the Sichuan-Tibetan plateau. Wanting something different, we looked to Yunnan and Victoria, our travel consultant, was excellent in putting together a personalised itinerary taking in Lijiang, Shuhe town, Baisha village, Lugu lake and Daluoshui village, Shangri-la, Feilaisi resort, dropping into or passing through Cizong, Tacheng and Shigu towns, finishing in Lijiang again in a circular tour through mountains, lakes and canyons. Victoria’s choice of hotels was excellent as was her selection of driver and guides. We had one driver throughout the trip who was excellent and two different guides. All were friendly, courteous and professional. Our guides spoke excellent English and their knowledge of the local history, culture and customs were impeccable. They recommended fantastic restaurants and were keen for us to really sample local foods and drinks. They were always considerate and looked after us, ensuring the pace was ok and letting us shop for souvenirs or stopping for photos. We walked on ancient cobbled stones in historical villages, visited temples high above the clouds or built in caves and cliffsides, climbed to altitudes of 4,680m and cruised on mirror-like lakes. We visited the homes of traditional Naxi and Mosuo families and a Lesuo village high in the Yunnan highlands. I seriously cannot fault any aspect of our trip from hotels, transportation and food to pace, viewpoints or the itinerary. It was very client focussed and our hosts only wanted us to have the best experience ever and that we did. Will definitely be booking with Windhorse Tour again to explore another part of China. I cannot thank or commend them more.

We had an exceptional experience with WindHorse’s Delia, our travel consultant, before, during and after the trip. I highly recommend this agency to anyone planning a trip. Delia made the entire planning process easy and stress-free. She listened carefully and accommodated every request possible within our itinerary and requirements. Her responsiveness before the trip made me feel confident of my choice. Her service during the trip was efficient and prompt at any time of the day. Knowing she was always available gave me tremendous peace of mind. We booked a 2-person private tour with a SUV, chauffeur and a dedicated tour guide. This package, especially the tour guide - Ping, exceeded all our expectations. We had specifically requested a certain type of tour guide, and Ping absolutely outshone the experience itself. Not only was she knowledgeable, but also personable, attentive, and perfectly matched to what we asked for. Her enthusiasm, insight, and care made our trip unforgettable. We don’t eat spicy food. (And who would visit Chengdu and omit the quintessential hot and spicy foods.) But Ping was able to locate very good restaurants which served delicious non-spicy local entrees in private dining rooms at every scenic spot we visited. Wind Horse travel consultant Delia and our guide Ping created a memorable and seamless journey. We would not hesitate to use WindHorse again.

 Verified Eva, il cuore e la precisione dietro un viaggio indimenticabile
WindhorseTour: precisione straordinaria e un grazie speciale a Eva Dal nostro arrivo a Pechino fino alle regioni più remote del Tibet, al Monte Kailash e al lago Manasarovar, WindhorseTour ha organizzato ogni dettaglio con una precisione straordinaria. A ogni tappa trovavamo sempre qualcuno ad aspettarci con un sorriso e un atteggiamento accogliente. La vera differenza, però, è stata Eva. Non è scomparsa dopo la prenotazione o il pagamento: ci ha accompagnati passo dopo passo, sapendo sempre dove fossimo e consigliandoci come affrontare ogni giornata. Anche da lontano, sentivamo che Eva continuava a prendersi cura di noi. Per gratitudine ho voluto visitare l’ufficio di WindhorseTour. Vedendo tutte le ragazze lavorare con concentrazione, armonia e passione, ho capito da dove nascesse l’attenzione ricevuta durante il viaggio. I miei complimenti vanno a tutte loro e alla manager, che insieme a Eva guida un team davvero eccezionale. Consiglio WindhorseTour senza esitazione. La gratitudine che provo per Eva e per la cura con cui ci ha accompagnati resterà con me per tutta questa vita.

 Verified Great Experience in China with Windhorse Tours
Kids have never been to China. Decided to book with Windhorse based upon reviews and an email dialogue with Windhorse representative Jenny. Ended up going with a two week private tour tailored for our family. Had a guide and minibus in every city. Guides met us at airports/train stations and also helped us check-in at every location as well. The only snafu was a delayed flight to start the trip. They were responsive in real-time and helped arrange new airport pickups for multiple parties. Would definitely use them again.

 Verified Private tailored tour; ask for Jenny!
I rarely write reviews however this truly deserves one. I emailed Windhorse Tours directly two days before I flew out looking for a tour guide and itinerary. I also emailed some other companies however, Windhorse was the first one to get back to me and also the only one that said they could take it on at such late notice. I was lucky enough to have someone called Jenny reach out to me and she was absolutely meticulous and always ready to update or make changes, even til late into the evening. Always very helpful and offered some great advice. My itinerary was sorted, some additional flights she found for me as I was continuing on and she even checked on me mid journey as the Cathay Pacific flight had been delayed and I missed the connection because of this. She also checked a couple of times during the trip how everything was going. Honestly, the best personal and professional service. Can only highly recommend, especially Jenny. I travel a lot and deal with ground operators frequently; this stood apart from the others. Well above what was necessary for them to do. I’d give them ten stars if I could.

 Verified Excellent experience with Windhorse Tour
When I was researching and planning my trip to Tibet two months before the trip, I contacted six tour operators (four of them based in Tibet) for quotes and itineraries. One of my requests was to do a day-trip from Lhasa to Shigatse by train. All of the tour operators, except for Windhorse, told me right away that a day tour from Lhasa to Shigatse by train would be too rushed, and that it could not be done. But Delia from Windhorse was very open to and supportive of my requests right from the first e-mail reply (Delia always replied to my e-mails promptly, with detailed answers to my questions and clear explanations on tour specifics). What I really appreciated was how Delia helped plan my trip with attentiveness and care, meeting all my requests and staying within budget, and offering advice that would make the trip more time-efficient and cost-effective. Every part of the trip went smoothly as planned, from tour payments via Alipay, delivering the Visit Tibet Permit to the hotel where I was staying prior to the flight to Lhasa, to the sightseeing schedule each day. The guide was knowledgeable and helpful (especially in dealing with all the security checkpoints). And the driver was kind and patient. It was an exceptional trip (the day trip from Lhasa to Shigatse by train was truly special), thanks to Delia for her thoughtful planning and excellent suggestions. I'm hoping to make another trip to Tibet - this time an overland Kathmandu-Lhasa trip, and I look forward to booking this next trip with Delia and Windhorse.

 Verified Fantastic Tour by a very customer-oriented agency
We requested an entirely private tour for our family of 3. We had quite precise ideas about the places and sights to visit. Windhorse Tour fully respected our wishes; they added some more recommended visits and some amendments of our rough travel plan to make it match perfectly with train schedules, necessary time for the visits etc. Developing the final tour plan with them was a pure pleasure. The resulting tour gave us a variety of impressions and a comprehensive overview of modern and historical China. The whole tour was perfectly organized. All the guides and drivers were always exactly on time. All the reservations (flights, trains, hotels, monuments and sights) were perfect and everything went smooth. Windhorse Tour’s information in our tour plan was 100% accurate and we saw all the places according to our tour plan. Thanks to their careful time planning, we were never in a hurry during our visits. The plan gave us enough flexibility to allow us to adapt it to our daily individual wishes or to the weather conditions. All our tour guides were very knowledgeable about Chinese history, traditions, culture, monuments, vegetation and fauna, geology etc. They were very customer-oriented and always respected our wishes. The did everything to allow us to avoid the big crowds, showed us the most scenic spots for pictures, knew nice restaurants for lunch or dinner etc. They also showed us places off the beaten tracks that we would not have found without their help. When we had any special problem, they solved it for us. (e.g. a forgotten backpack in a hotel; the guide organized getting it back within 24 h). We did not want to visit souvenir shops. Our guides never took us there, but we had the opportunity to buy quality artwork or handicrafts if interested. All the drivers were very reliable. We were picked up as planned at all train stations, airports, hotels and places after visits. The drivers were courteous, driving carefully and safely and they respected our wishes. All the hotel reservations were done as agreed in the tour plan. Windhorse Tour had carefully selected the hotels according to our wishes (location, category, room type, meal plan). Windhorse Tour was always very responsive before and during our tour. They answered our questions and wishes very swiftly and never left us alone with a problem. The price of our private tour was fair and there were no hidden costs. I can warmly recommend Windhorse Tour as a very professional, reliable and customer-oriented tour operator.

It's a group of 20 people went to Mt.Kailash via Beijing-Lhasa- Shigatse-EBC-Saga-Lake Manasorvar-Darchen- Mt.Kailash-Parikarama- Lhasa-Beijing 2. Right from the planning and fine tuning the itinerary, Yuki from Windhorse helped us immensely and she was thorough on her inputs. Well experienced guidance from her. 3. All Accommodations throughout the tour was great. With one hiccup of Lake Manasorvar hot spring hotel promised was not able to secure which disappointed the whole team. This should have been communicated way in advance and alternate accommodation arrangement made should have been communicated well in advance. 4. Airport Pickups/Drop off arrangements were handled properly. No hiccups. 5. All tour vehicles used within Tibet region was great. 6. Food options were great. Some days beyond Saga , food were provided with available options. 7. Tour guide Mr.Tashi was way well experienced and more caring person. Kudos to his service. The driver of the bus is so accommodative and provided excellent services. 8. Few item promised on the itinerary were not able to doable due to authorities' restriction on road unavailability. This should have been communicated well in advance. 9. And Beijing tour guide had some mixed comments. Driver was excellent in beijing. Due to airport change, the alternate arrangement made was much appreciable but drop at dinner restaurant was not planned well. It put entire group into a very disappointed mood. This should have been handled better. 10. Price is also very reasonable. 11. Keep up the good service Windhorse team.

We had a wonderful experience with WindhorseTour during our China and Tibet trip in August 2026. Our journey took us from Beijing and Xi’an to Zhangye and Xining, and then into Tibet, where we visited Lhasa, Draksum Tso, Lulang, Ranwu Lake, Midui Glacier, Bayi, Ganden Monastery, Namtso Lake and Yamdrok Tso. It was a fascinating combination of Chinese history and culture and the incredible landscapes of Tibet. A special thank you to Sylvia, who was extremely helpful and professional throughout the planning of our trip. She was always responsive, patient and willing to adapt the itinerary to what we wanted. The organization of such a complicated journey was excellent, with many different trains, flights, hotels, transfers and guides involved.

 Verified Excellent
Jenny is one of the best travel agents I have interacted with. Proactive throughout, she gave sound and prompt advice and was a delight to deal with. Before our 8 day tour of Kham Tibet, we went down an AI rabbit hole about the state of the roads (they were more than good!) and bombarded her with random vehicle questions that she answered with her typical polite helpfulness. Her organisation and help were much appreciated and we had a wonderful trip, seeing beautiful scenery and amazing monasteries. Her choice of guide and vehicle were both excellent.

Je souhaitais un chauffeur pour me déplacer d'Emeishan jusqu'à Kangding et Danba puis retourner à Chengdu et Delia a fait le maximum pour que tout se passe du mieux possible. Merci !

 Verified Good experience two times
I used this company in 2019 to arrange private tours and logistics in Xi'an, Chengdu, and the Zhangjiajie areas. When I revisited in 2026 I used this company again for Datong and Zhangjiajie. I worked in particular with Jenny Dai. Jenny amazed me with how responsive she was and how excellent her communications were. She was very helpful in arranging everything and explaining things that I didn't understand. I would recommend this company for anyone considering visiting China, in particular those who are interested in private tours. I thought their prices were quite reasonable.

Went to An Hui and huangshan Very well organised. Windhorse planned & recommended us itinerary, number of days to spend at each place, coordinated with ground operator. The tour guide was friendly, spoke English well and experienced. itinerary worked out as indicated. No empty promises . No exaggeration We visited the bamboo forest, Hongcun an ancient town and hiked Huangshan Windhorse Tour planner checked meticulously on Yellow Mountain (Huangshan) hotels, sightseeing spots etc for us as seniors. It was well paced and hiking was not strenuous. We had a relaxing time up on the mountain
