Good vid guys. Did the trip (Lhasa to Katmandu along the Friendship Route) about twenty years ago. Brought back some wonderful memories.
That’s my hometown tingri county where Everest is
You all have 'counties' over there too? Hmmmm
@@quantumpotential7639 yeah
Nepal
Thanks for sharing such great info. I am 57 and was thinking of going there via Nepal but now after watching this I know that road trip is possible. China Visa no issue for me.
You're so welcome, M.K.! Great, hope you have a good trip!
Thank you both for such an informative video.
You are so welcome, Robin! Let us know if there is a video you would like to see...
Thank you so much for sharing this. Is november good time to visit Tibet and do we get clear views of Everest. Thank you.
Lovely video, congrats.xxxxxx
Thank you Peggi! Same for you -- if you have any ideas on videos you would like to see in the future, let us know!
How are the toilet facilities at the EBC?
Thank you. I hear trek from tingiri to ebc on tibet side is good and can be done in 3 to 4 days. A lot of people want to combine this trek to ebc with kailash manasarovar trip. Would tour operators do that?
Honestly, we've never done the trek and don't plan to, because that particular approach/scenery does not seem to be as interesting as, for example, ganden to samye or at Kailash (or the EBC trek on the Nepal side) -- until, that is the final day, which you can experience without the trek. This isn't to say it doesn't have advantages and that you wouldn't want to do it -- that's just our perspective. We'd rather spend the precious days in Tibet on some of the other glories. You can combine the trek on a private tour in Tibet, no problem. Also, you may want to check out the Kharta Valley trek at Everest. We're planning to do that ourselves on the next journey to Tibet. 🙂
very good info.......tnx for posting.......what are the best months for views?
Hi Jonny, May and October to January are often thought to be good, but Mother Nature always wins! I have been at Everest with zero visibility in late December (a freak snowstorm), but also no views in late September (cloudy/rainy), and no views in August the day I arrived, but then glorious views the following morning. The best chance is avoiding July/August, but that said, as you see, it's really variable!
So Base Camp on the Tibetan side is not really Base Camp....
How much does it cost for mount Everest climb permit from Tibet side
Sorry, we only know about tourist visits to base camp, not about actually climbing the mountain.
Do they have a bar to drink at base camp?
haha no, it's pretty basic accomodations. You might be able to get beer or chang at the tent guesthouses, but definitely no bar.
Why is it extremely risky to travel from Kathmandu to Lhasa but not risky to travel from Lhasa to Kathmandu? It seems that starting at Lhasa is just as risky if not more than starting at KTM in terms of risk of altitude sickness?
Hi, because of the days and altitudes of travel, you go very high very fast in the Kath to Lhasa direction. Many people get ill. If you're starting in Lhasa, you are generally already decently acclimatized when you start the journey, plus you don't go as high as fast -- the extreme difference is more downhill in this direction.

Let's hope China have tough laws preventing littering on camps.....watching youtube videos on base camps and other camps in Nepal with rubbish littering all around is disheartening man.....
