1. Taking the flight from Nepal to Tibet

   Flight from Kathmandu to Lhasa is the only international flight in Tibet autonomous region currently. In the summer times, there are several flights in a day, and in the winter there is only one flight, and I would like to remind you all to book the flight ticket in advance.

2. Overland tours from Nepal to Tibet

   Now The Tibet Tourism Bureau is issuing Tibet Travel Permit for International Visitors for Overland Journey from and to Nepal. Please read here for more updates about Tibet tourism Updates. We recommend everybody to first come to Lhasa by flight and then leave Tibet for the Nepal Via Overland journey.
