The 7-day period allows you to gradually adjust to the high altitude of Tibet without increasing your physical burden due to the prolonged travel time. Considering the limited time, scattered attractions, and trip comfort, signing up for a group tour to enjoy your Tibet trip to the fullest can be the best value. With our travel agency's professional services, you will have an unforgettable Tibet trip for a lifetime.

Is 7 Days Enough in Tibet?

However, don’t worry about it while you can still visit Tibet’s core attractions such as the Potala Palace and Everest Base Camp in 7 days on condition that you have a reasonable itinerary. Compared to a hurried itinerary of 3 or 4 days, 7 days will give you the chance to taste Tibet cuisine such as butter tea and participate in unique entertainment activities such as visiting traditional Tibetan villages.
