IMPORTANT
PRE-DEPARTURE INFORMATION:

Casual wears and comfortable
walking shoes are the rule of Tibet . Be
sure to bring warm clothing as nights and
early mornings can be quite chilly to down
right cold. Indian Pilgrims strictly no
Sari. Bring all the film, medicine,
cosmetics, personal toilet items etc. that
you will need from home as these are
difficult if not impossible to obtain on the
way. A small first aid kit is also a good
idea. Also quite useful is a route map, to
know where you are going and have been each
day.
What to take:
Winter wear: Gore-Tex material,
though expensive, is highly recommended.
Down jacket, raincoat or windbreakers,
thermal under wears, Jackets, warm trousers
& woolen shirts (cotton will also do), warm
sweaters, woolen gloves, sun hat,
comfortable shoes, light leather boots in
case of snow, woolen balaclava ('monkey
cap') & scarf/dust mask to protect your eyes
& nose from dust.

Snacks along the way. Chocolates,
dry fruit, toffees, glucose; 'namkeen' etc.
Strong water bottle & water purifying
tablets. Personal medical kit and Diamox
tablet (for high altitude). Sun glasses (to
protect your eyes from UV, which is
especially strong in high altitudes). Sun
block or sun screen lotion, wet tissues

dust), clothes-line/clips, needle & thread,
deo-spray (handy for smelly boots/feet and
for a round of spray in the toilet tent!),
toilet paper, torch & spare batteries,
daypack (small shoulder bag), Camera &

Health:
This is one of the toughest high
altitude road journeys on earth. You Must be
physically fit - no two ways about that.
Generally patients with asthma & heart
problems have a problem acclimatizing to
high altitudes. In your interests it is
essential you should be examined by your
doctor to know about your health condition
and your ability to cope up with the rigors
of high altitude travel for days in 'no
road' conditions, extreme cold, dust,
trekking to an altitude of 19500ft during
the Parikrama, etc.
Altitude Sickness:
As you are traveling over high
terrain, you are likely to experience
symptoms and discomfort of altitude sickness
(headache, loss of appetite, nausea,
exhaustion, sleeplessness, breathlessness
etc.) until your body adjusts to the
elevation. This can take a couple of days or
more depending on an individual. For this
reason alone, we have made it mandatory to
stay 2 nights at Nyelam (12000ft) and a
night in Simikot those who take journey of
Helicopter before moving on to the higher
altitudes. Drink plenty of water, be calm,
and do not exercise. Do not drink alcohol or
smoke prior to and during the tour. We also
recommend you carry a strip of diamox
tablets. Do consult your physician on the
dosage. We provide Gamow bag (a special
equipment to prevent sickness from high
altitude) on this tour.

The unit of Chinese currency is
Yuan. USD 1 = 7.9 Yuan. 1 Yuan = INR 5-6
approx; Money can exchange at Bank of China
at Zhangmu or from the locals at Zhangmu or
Kodari. Exchange all your remaining Yuan at
the end of the trip at Zhangmu itself before
re-entering Nepal .
