Kailash Mansarovar tour Fly In Fly out

,

Kailash Mansarovar tour is a holy tour and it is believed that Mount Kailash is an axis of the Earth. To understand the power of nature and its importance in our lives, once every individual must visit this sacred place. Pokalde Adventure Tours and Travel regularly organizes Kailash tours for our valued guests from different parts of the world. The high-elevation tour is always a sensitive and risky one since the level of oxygen is low there and essential medical support is also not available everywhere. Therefore, we must follow the instructions and guidance given by our guide and follow him until the tour is completed. The tour generally starts from Lhasa, the capital city of Tibet. However, your stay in Kathmandu is recommended for two days before Lhasa. So that we have sufficient time to prepare and discuss the trip and explore Kathmandu Valley within these two days. We have three days in Lhasa to acclimatize ourselves in that context. Then, we set out on an exhilarating excursion across Shigatse through verifiable Gyantse to EBC. The initial part of the tour covers the exemplary travel course of the Lhasa to EBC visit and will leave you in amazement with astounding Himalayan Mountain ranges.
Mount Kailash is the most beautiful mountain in the world. It is accepted as a Devine Mountain in the world as it is believed that the axis of the earth is Mount Kailash. This tour is best suited for those who want to fly from Kathmandu and back to Kathmandu via airplane. We have options of driving to go to Nepal via Kerung Nepal China Border which is around 190 Km north of Kathmandu.
Pokalde Adventure Tours & Travel P. Ltd. has been operating tours in Tibet, Bhutan, India, and Nepal. We do Pilgrimage tours like Pashupatinath Darsan Yatra, Muktinath Darsan, Janaki Mandir and Bouddhanath, Swoyambhunath, and many other cultural and heritage tours in Kathmandu Valley.
