A Tibet tour will delight and challenge your senses with smells, tastes and colors you have never experienced before. Good or bad, you discover the fetid odor of yak butter and incense that smacks of hashish. You taste rich, savory stews of spicy yak, crisp Asian pears, and sweet local melons. You have to put up with a lot to get up onto the "rooftop of the world" - bureaucracy & permits, distance & flights, unpaved roads & long drives, poverty & filth, altitude sickness, headaches, nose bleeds, and dust... lots of dust. "But make it to Tibet and you will be rewarded with a surfeit of sensory experiences.
