Kathmandu -Lhasa Tibet Overland
My friends and I recently did Overland Tour to Tibet from Kathmandu - Lhasa incl Everest Base Camp for 12 days. Earthbound made all arrangements for our group, from the Tibet group Permit to our flight back to Ktm from Lhasa. Prior to the trip, I have been corresponding with Rajan and I would say that he has never failed to reply promptly. Rajan and his team are very helpful and professional. Our Tibetan guide, Tashi and our Tibetan driver, named Tashi too, both of them are very patient and have much assisted us in every way throughout our trip. The accommodations that we were placed in were quite comfortable and clean. Most of the accommodations have free wireless access at the lobby area and hot shower. Overall , our group is very happy with this trip arranged by Earthbound.
