Travel Insurance
It is highly advisable that all people who are part of this trip purchase travel insurance. Despite the comfortable sightseeing nature of the itinerary, international traveling might be characterized by unforeseen circumstances such as flight delays, medical emergencies, lost baggage, and weather related travel disruptions. A proper insurance cover will safeguard you against such unforeseeable occurrences.
When buying travel insurance, it is better to purchase the policy that covers medical care, emergency evacuation, cancellation of the trip, baggage coverage, and high altitude coverage. It is important to review carefully your policy before leaving so that you can be sure of being properly covered during the trip.
The Luxury Tibet Tour Package has been created to provide a comfortable and enjoyable holiday, but comprehensive travel insurance remains an important part of responsible travel planning.
Private Tour vs Group Tour
This tour may be organized as a private departure or a group departure that is scheduled. Both packages have the same sightseeing program, lodging, transportation, and guiding services. The decision will be based on how you like to travel, the dates you would like to travel and whether you love to travel alone or together with other tourists.
The flexibility of private departures offers the benefit of couples, families and small groups having a more tailored experience. Group departures are ideal for solo travelers or those who enjoy sharing their journey with people from different backgrounds while following a well-organized itinerary.
