Tour Reviews
Namtso Lake two days trip is more suitable only in summer month from June to August. You’d better not stay overnight near Namtso Lake in the cold and dry season of April and May, September. And according to our experience, from around Oct.20 onward, the road to Mt. Lagenla pass is very icy and dangerous and mostly it is not suitable for this trip. If you do want to include Namtso Lake attraction in your Tibet holiday, you can consider to join our one day Namtso Lake group tour. However you do not have to book a full package group tour from Lhasa to Namtso. You just book your suitable permit and add 1 or 2 days trip in Lhasa and add this highlight lake trip. Enjoy the booking with our agency.
