How to Obtain a Tibet Travel Permit for Vietnamese Tourists?
If you are a tourist from Vietnam planning to visit Tibet, you must obtain a Tibet Travel Permit through a recognized Tibet travel agency, as individual applications are not allowed. With years of experience assisting Vietnamese tourists, we can handle your entry permit and ensure a smooth journey to Tibet.
To get started, book your Tibet tour with us and send copies of your passport and Chinese visa. We will take care of the application process for you. Once the permit is issued, we will deliver it to your address in mainland China, allowing you to travel to Lhasa by flight or train without any hassle.
Can Vietnamese Tourists Travel Independently in Tibet with a Tibet Travel Permit?
All international tourists, including those from Vietnam, are not permitted to travel independently in Tibet. You must join an organized tour through an authorized travel agency, where you will be accompanied by a local Tibetan guide throughout your journey.
We offer a wide selection of small group tours, allowing you to explore the best of Tibet at favorable prices. For solo Vietnamese travelers to Tibet, joining a small group tour is recommended to ensure a smoother and safer trip.
Additionally, you can opt for our private tours, which can be customized to fit your ideal schedule and route, providing you with a high degree of freedom during your travels in Tibet.
When is the best time to visit Tibet from Vietnam?
Tibet can be visited year-round, but the best times to go are generally in spring and autumn, from April to early June and from September to October. During these periods, Tibet enjoys pleasant, warm weather and clear skies, making it ideal for sightseeing and outdoor activities.
Summer, from July to August, is also a good time to visit. The monsoon rains usually fall in the late afternoon or evening and typically won't interrupt your travel plans. The scenery is especially vivid during this time, and the weather is warm but not hot compared to other lower-altitude regions.
Winter, from November to mid-February, is the off-season and offers the best opportunities for budget travel. During this time, you can save significantly on travel expenses as hotels and flights offer great discounts. Additionally, you'll experience fewer crowds at attractions and a more immersive Buddhist ambiance.
What to Pack for Traveling to Tibet from Vietnam?
Tibet is located on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and has a plateau climate with significant temperature differences between day and night. During the day, temperatures can be quite high, requiring you to remove your jacket, while at night, temperatures drop significantly, and you'll need to dress warmly. Therefore, it is recommended that Vietnamese tourists visiting Tibet prepare a warm jacket (down jacket or cotton-padded coat).
Clothing: thermal underwear, quick-dry base layers, warm down jacket, long pants, etc.
Footwear: warm and non-slip hiking boots, comfortable sneakers, breathable socks;
First Aid: medication for altitude sickness, cold medicine, etc;
Other Essentials: sunglasses, sunscreen, lipstick, raincoat, etc.
Additionally, you can purchase clothing, medication, and other necessities in Lhasa.
How many days are needed to visiting Tibet from Vietnam?
The duration of your Tibet tour depends on your interests, travel pace, and chosen itinerary.
Most tourists opt for the Lhasa to Mount Everest route, typically taking 8 to 10 days. Along this journey, you'll explore all the major attractions from Lhasa to Shigatse.
For those interested in exploring Mount Kailash and Lake Manasarovar, plan for a 15-day itinerary starting from Lhasa, passing through Everest Base Camp (EBC), Saga, and reaching the sacred mountain.
If you have limited time, consider a 4-day Lhasa tour covering essential landmarks such as the Potala Palace and Jokhang Temple. Alternatively, extend your trip by one or two days to include visits to nearby Yamdrok Lake or Namtso Lake.
Whether you prefer an extensive exploration or a shorter visit, there are flexible options to suit various schedules when traveling to Tibet from Vietnam. If you have any questions or travel ideas, feel free to contact us.
