FITNESS: The Kathmandu, Lhasa, Everest Base Camp tour involves five to six hours driving per day, but comparatively little walking (indeed, walking is not mandatory). However, it is all at very high altitude which will take a physical toll. There are no special physical requirement, but high altitude experience is a bonus.

TRAIN between Beijing and Chengdu and Lhasa is now running full swing.
