Are you looking to join a group trip to Tibet? Do you already have a group, but are looking for another member to join? Traveling to Tibet with like-minded others helps lower costs and creates more fun for all!
Many travelers opt to join a group or welcome other travelers into their group as a way of splitting the costs of hiring a guide and driver. For those looking for a group, we recommend posting on our Looking for Travel Companions blog page, in addition to posting on online travel forums like the Lonely Planet Thorntree Forum.
Groups tend to come together about a month to a few weeks before the trip starts. If you contact us early on looking for a group, check back with us about a month before your departure date to see if we have any groups forming.
We can add travelers to a group as long as there is time to process the permits.

If you are on a budget and looking for a group to share the costs. We have two groups every month setting for the following tours:
