Why You Really Should Book a Tibet Trip in Advance
In most cases, the processing time for the indispensable Tibet Travel Permit is at least 8 to 9 working days. In addition, the mailing time also needs to be considered. So, it is already quite a tight schedule for a foreign tourist to book a Tibet tour two weeks in advance. In addition, there are actually some other reasons that you need to take into account.
Book Your Tibet Trip in Advance for a More Favorable Price
Our travel agency usually offers some early bird discounts and off-season surprise prices for Tibet travel packages from time to time. Sometimes, the tourism authorities will also introduce some tourism preferential policies, and our travel agencies will always keep up with these policies and offer discount promotions. Conversely, if you start booking your Tibet trip just before departure, it's hard to get a pleasant discount. My advice is that add our contact information right now so to get the latest discount notifications. Additionally, air ticket prices fluctuate greatly. Planning early can help you select one that fits your budget.
Booking Your Tibet Trip in Advance Gives You More Options
In urban areas, although there are many hotel rooms, if you want a specific type of room, such as a view room, a family suite, a cost-effective economy room, or a room close to a famous scenic spot, these are all in high demand and you need to seize the opportunity as soon as possible.
In the tent area of the Everest Base Camp, there are a few rooms that meet hotel standards. However, due to limited resources, the number is extremely limited. They are available on a first-come, first-served basis; otherwise, only large dormitories will be available for selection.
Perhaps you have already heard about the popularity of the train to Tibet. The hottest seat type is soft sleeper, and Because each train only has over 60 soft sleeper compartments, soft sleepers are even more sought-after.
Booking Your Tibet Trip in Advance to Avoid Last-Minute Mistakes
When our travel agency helps you submit the information to apply for Tibet Travel Permit, the date of your entry into Tibet has already been set and cannot be modified at will. This means that you can only enter on the day you have chosen. In case you don't enter Tibet on time, there will be some unnecessary expenses incurred, which is something neither of us wants to see. Besides, you need to set aside more time to arrange for a Ngari trip as it takes longer time to process Tibet Travel Permit.
Booking Your Tibet Trip in Advance for a Festival Tour
Whether you plan to travel during common Chinese festivals such as May Day and National Day, or during local traditional festivals like the Saga Dawa Festival and the Shoton Festival, you should be aware that all kinds of tickets are in short supply at that time.
Conclusion
Booking a trip does not require paying the full amount. Instead, a certain percentage of the deposit is charged based on the specific price of your Tibet trip. If you wish to get a refund due to your own will, our travel agency will be very willing to offer a full refund, usually at least 20 days ahead of your departure day. Under the premise of incurring costs, some fees that have already been incurred will be deducted when canceling a trip.

We are a group of 15 (perhaps 17) who need to take the June 8th 15:27 train from Xining to Lhasa. We need to book this soon so prompt reply would be helpful. We are getting our permits from an agent and should have them in 6-8 days.

plan a 7-8days trip for me and my boyfriend in April
Hi! I would like to plan a 7-8days trip for me and my boyfriend in April (3rd to 10th ideally) to Nepal, Tibet, and, if possible, Bhutan. Do you think it would be doable? Based on what I read, there are some places/things to do to consider: Nepal: Everest Base Camp trek and the Annapurna Circuit, ancient temples, sacred sites like Lumbini, Kathmandu, Tibet: The Potala Palace in Lhasa and the Jokhang Temple. eventually the holy Mount Kailash or the high-altitude plains. Bhutan: Thimphu, Paro, and the famous Tiger’s Nest Monastery. To take part in cultural traditions, yoga, meditation... Of course I am open to any recommendations you could make. For your reference, we are both based in Asia: him, in Bangkok and myself in Macau. Thank you so much for the information you could provide and, if possible, an estimated budget for your offer.
