Overview of Kailash Tour
Mount Kailash is a very popular holy
mountain in Tibet and is also known as Tise, Kailash, or Kang Rinpoche (Jewel
of the snow). Mount Kailash is sacred to Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, and Bonpos
as the center of the physical and metaphysical universe. For Hindus, Kailash
Mountain is the residence of Lord Shiva. For Buddhists, it is a terrestrial
projection of the cosmic mandala of the Dyani Buddhas and Boddhisattvas.
For the pious pilgrim, a visit to Mount
Kailash and Lake Mansarovar is the ultimate achievement of your spiritual quest
and offers adventure lovers beauty, isolation, and solitude. If you travel to
Mount Kailash in May, you will have the opportunity to witness the Saga Dawa
Buddhist Festival, while most of the other excursions on Mount Kailash are
planned. The Kailash tour during the full moon period offers all participants a
rare experience.

Essential Information
Tour Managers and other staff arrangements
During the trip to Nepal part, you are
under the guide of Nepal, and the guide of Tibet is your guide in Tibet. Such
provision ensures that your guide has in-depth knowledge of the respective specialized
area. During the trip to Nepal and Tibet, potters and horses or yaks are
responsible for carrying your luggage.
Travel insurance
Travel
insurance for each itinerary of our company is a prerequisite for booking
vacations. At a minimum, you must have emergency and repatriation insurance
that must include the cost of the mountain rescue. Carefully review the terms
and conditions of your insurers. You should understand that you will bear the value
of the evacuation and return procedures, and that is your responsibility to pay
for the removal or medical treatment. You must be fully aware of the effects of
travel insurance and understand the limitations and exclusions of your policy.
Please note that in certain circumstances, our company guide may initiate
helicopter rescue operations (or other necessary operations) in medical
emergencies without first seeking approval from your insurance company.
Acclimatization
Being at an altitude can be a challenge
for some. All of our trips are planned with a high level of awareness about AMS
(acute mountain sickness). Going up to fast can seriously need medical
conditions. We understand that for a safe walk, it is necessary to leave enough
time for acclimatization. Therefore, a sensible plan is required to reduce the
risk of AMS. However, be aware that some visitors are more vulnerable than
others.
Physical condition and experience requirements
The trip lasts a few days at high
altitude; some time needs a few more hours. The hike is not challenging.
However, being at an elevation can be challenging. Therefore, we highly
recommend staying physically healthy. We recommend that you consult your doctor
and take the necessary advice and take medications to travel to extreme heights
before going on vacation.
Important information about the Tibet tour
Above all, all travelers traveling in
Tibet are asked to point out that Tibet is isolated from the impressive
mountains of the Himalayas, remains one of the most fascinating but least developed
parts of the world. Although the tourist facilities are updated, they remain pure
and limited in scope. Therefore, visitors are asked not to have high
expectations of the facilities in Tibet. However, we will do our best to make
your trip as pleasant as possible.
The road between Tibet and Nepal is not
up to date either; it is rough, bumpy, and winding. Especially during the
monsoons (June-August), it can be temporarily hampered by landslides and
erosion. Therefore, some sportswear and sports shoes are highly recommended to
make it easier for travelers to walk on the landslides.
Reservation and visa procedures:
You should contact us at least two weeks
before with a fixed reservation with full payment along with full passport
details. We organize the China / Tibet visa from Kathmandu. The visa procedure
takes three full working days if you are available in Kathmandu.
Cancellation:
Fifty percent of the tour cost will be
charged as a cancellation fee if you cancel the tour within seven days before
the start of the journey. After that, there is no refund in any reason such as
no show, late arrival or any other
Risk Liability
We will always do our best to make your
trip pleasant and enjoyable, however, since all tours through Tibet are carried
out exclusively by the Tibet Tourism Authority or its representatives. We are
not responsible for changes or cancellations of programs due to unavoidable
circumstances such as road closures, floods, snow, riots, Flight cancellations,
late arrival, etc. In the event of illness or accident, the customer bears all
additional costs. It is, therefore, advisable that customers have full
insurance against the risk of medical and personal disasters. Cancellation
insurance is also the most recommended in your country of origin.
For the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra, one must be in good physical and mental health. It is recommended that you get a medical examination before planning this religious trip. People with back pain can have problems during a bumpy ride. People with asthma or dust allergies are strongly advised to wear a mask on the dusty street.

Unforgettable Religious Trip to Nepal and Mount Kailash, Tibet
I was
fortunate enough to participate in the Kailash Manasarovar tour in May 2018, arranged
by Nepal Tour & Trekking Service P. Ltd in Kathmandu. Mr. Kishor and his
team went out of their way to make sure we had the best experience. From the
first day of the trip, we witnessed their unwavering enthusiasm with which they
made this journey an unforgettable experience for all of us. The warm welcome
at the airport, the excellent arrangement at the Temple of Lord Pashupatinath, and
the visits to other places were just a preview of what we would expect to see.
During the
trip, the entire team, consisting of hard-working people, took care of our
safety and comfort. Food and accommodation were well organized, and we felt
"at home." The entire service was excellent and successful.
You will
want to go back again and again, as I plan to do this year. It is heaven, and
there, our soul finds peace. Even, this is one of the most difficult tour, they
made it possible with their excellent staff. Good food, always smiling staff,
ready to help the members of the trip, and most importantly, the best
solidarity attitude. With such excellent service, any tedious task becomes
easy. The journey is challenging because there is very little oxygen at this
level, but when you are with Kishor’s team, there are no problems.
I would
recommend all those interested in experiencing a memorable Kailash Yatra to use
their services.
