The highway over the Rhotang Pass is still a huge mess! Road widening has caused immense damage to the roadway and the expected heavy traffic have again convinced us our decision to ride the eastern route through the Spiti Valley is a wise one.

The advantages of riding the eastern route to Leh, gives us the chance to enjoy the unspoilt beauty through Spiti, the challenge of road-rivers into Lahaul and beyond. Highways into the Leh Valley have been repaired after last year’s devastating flood-slides and jeeps are once again plying the road into Zanskar. “Roads Open, will Ride!”

The three options each require careful planning. If you want to ride Kathmandu to Lhasa, you’ll be flying into Kathmandu and out of Lhasa.

We’ll visit Mt Everest base camp (north side) on the outbound and return legs, but we’ll return via a different route - further north, for part of the way.

The Planning for Tibet Tours takes time - we have to work through a morass of paperwork with the Chinese authorities to enable the successful running of these Tours... So we ask that anyone wishing to join the outbound – Kathmandu to Lhasa, the return route or the complete circuit, please contact us as soon as possible.

Riding days are filled with twisties, climbs and loops, all through steep-sided green valleys, towering above raging rivers.

We get you ‘in and out’ either by Jeep or by train, to where your motorcycles await you for some spectacular Touring. But remember, the seasons govern when and where to ride in India – in the summer we head north and in the winter we head south.

Night stops in Rajasthan include beautiful Havelis, desert fortresses and hotels beside picturesque royal lakes.
