Ticket to Lhasa

An incredible journey by rail to Tibet, the ‘roof of the world’


 
 

The Train

Specially constructed for this extreme route and suitable thus for the more adventurous traveller, this is not a luxury train. Meeting the requirements of safety, reliance, comfort and environmental protection; the normal running in a severely cold and oxygen deficient environment is ensured, with each of the airproof carriages having a generator for the supply of oxygen.

As accommodation is limited and in high demand, the overnight journey to Lhasa will be in 4-berth compartments, sharing with other VJV travellers, with a toilet and washroom at the end of each carriage. Simple Chinese food is served on board. Private journey arrangements will be in a private 4-berth compartment.
