1.Minor program changes sometimes are necessary, depending on road conditions, weather and availability of room.
2.The joint group will go to fixed souvenir shops, while the private group can avoid this subject to your decision.
3.Health consultation from your doctor before you come to highland(Over 3000M).
4.As we travel in Tibet area where the economy is much more backward than other places, the food alternative is limited,so we suggest you order food in local restaurants available yourself or take some solid food.Most of local restaurant can only offer the simple Sichuan and Tibetan dishes.
5.All the passengers can buy the ticket from Chengdu/chongqing directly to Lhasa but they have to get down the train at Xi"ning train station and then transfer to another train from Xi"ning to Lhasa.The officials and staff of the train station will lead the passengers to the train and all the passengers will have the same seat or sleeper number.......
