Question

We are four persons.We are flying to Beijing in september and are planning to travel to Lhasa then. We are getting visas from Finlands embassy for China.Is it possible to go there without a travel guide,or do we need a travel guide? Is it possible to reserve the train tickets to Lhasa by internet?

William · Answer

Hi, you should apply for the Travel Permits apart from the visa. Since individual foreign travelers are not allowed to visit PRC, so it's difficult for you to acquire that permit. You might join a group tour arranged by qualified tour agencies to visit Lhasa. The agency can help you acquire the travel permit.

Get your Chinese visas before you enter China. Once there, many travel agents will organize a Tbt travel permit. It may take up to a week. They will organize train travel, air travel plus whatever style of tour you require there. You must have a guide. However, currently the minimum size of the group is 1.Ian from Australia, currently in Lhasa permit
