Tibet, China & Nepal

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Tibet, straddling China and Nepal, is one of the world's most remote and awe-inspiring destinations, sitting on the Tibetan Plateau at an average elevation of over 4,500 metres — earning it the nickname "the Roof of the World." It is home to Mount Everest, the planet's highest peak, which draws trekkers and mountaineers from across the globe. The region is deeply shaped by Tibetan Buddhism, with iconic landmarks like the Potala Palace in Lhasa, ancient monasteries, and sacred pilgrimage routes. Travellers are drawn here for high-altitude trekking, cultural immersion, and the sheer dramatic scale of its Himalayan landscapes.

Discover Tibet: Self-Launched Adventure from Beijing to Kathmandu

This self-launched itinerary mirrors Exodus's Discover Tibet group tour — from Beijing through the Tibetan Plateau to Kathmandu — at a fraction of the cost. You'll ride the legendary Sky Train, explore grand monasteries, gaze at Everest from Rongphu, and cross into Nepal via the Friendship Bridge, all under your own steam. Note: Tibet requires a Tibet Travel Permit (TTP) and an organised Tibet tour permit — independent travel within the TAR is not permitted, so you'll need to book a licensed local Tibetan agency for in-region transport and a guide (mandatory by law). All costs are approximate estimates per person.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Tibet, China & Nepal yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Find the most locally-hated tourist trap and go anyway, unironically, in a costume."
