Tibet Trekking in 2015: Plan an Adventure With Advice From an Expert
Lhasa, Tibet (PRWEB) February 02, 2015 -- Tibet trekking is by far one of the best ways to experience its stunning landscapes. From easy hikes with vehicle support to multi week rugged adventures Tibet can cater to trekkers of all experience levels. Before setting out it’s important for adventurers to select the route and tour operator that’s right for them. Tony Yang of Tibet Ctrip Travel Service-TCTS (http://www.tibetctrip.com) has been organizing trekking tours for over 10 years and shares some of his advice.
• Invest the time in learning about Tibet’s most popular routes. Successful travel groups focus on those that match their interests and experience level. The air in Tibet is thin and the terrain can sometimes be difficult; for less experienced trekkers it’s advisable to opt for an easier adventure instead of trying to push group’s limit.
• Choose a Tibet tour operator wisely. A quick Google search yields hundreds of Tibet tour operators, however not all are of equal quality. TCTS employs experienced native Tibetan guides along with providing equipment like tents and sleeping bags while others may not. Ask lots of questions when speaking with potential tour operators.
• Stay fit before coming to Tibet; trekking at high altitudes can be very demanding on the body. This does not mean that one needs the strength and endurance of an athlete to trek Tibet! However, keep in mind that exercising a few times a week in months leading up to the adventure can go a long way.
Trekking is one of the best ways to take in Tibetan landscapes that most travelers miss out on. Whether this is the group’s first big trekking adventure or they’re looking to take on a challenge an experienced tour operator can help set up a tour that meets everyone’s needs. Prime time for a Tibet trekking tour is only a few short months away, be sure to keep this advice in mind when planning an adventure!
