Overview
13 Days Kailas Mansarovar overland tour is an excursion to the very remote far western corner of the Tibetan Plateau. It is a very popular tour to one of the most revered holy sites in the world, Mt. Kailas. The tour begins with a short drive from Nepal across the Tibetan border to Nyalam Town. From there, the tour traverses several
high altitude passes and goes through several Tibetan villages such as Peiku Tso, Mayum La, Dira Puk, Zutul Puk, and Darchen. We will stay in some of these villages overnight affording the opportunities to see
