Experience being on top of the world for a spellbinding week in Nepal and Tibet. Discover mysterious, enchanting and remote lands that were virtually cut off from the rest of the world until very recently; lands inhabited by gentle, friendly and pious Buddhists who have been moulded by the often harsh and unforgiving climactic and geographical conditions. This itinerary combines adventure and spiritual experience during which you will see some of the most breath-taking landscapes, imposing palaces and magnificent monasteries on the planet.  Tibet is truly the roof of the world. It is the source of famous rivers like the Yangtze, Yellow, Mekong, and Indus; it is a Buddhist holy land, where you can see Tibetan Buddhist prayer flags hanging all around; it is a sacred place, where there are magnificent monasteries sitting on halfway down the snow-capped mountains, under the blue sky, or close to the pure lakes.
