A possible, beautiful itinerary for you

The Child within You
Arrival in Kumming, southwest China. It is an easy day to meet the crew and take care of the paperwork. You need a permit to visit Tibet, as well a driver’s permit. Your Blueflower representatives take care of the hassle and you check-in for an early night. Sleep doesn’t come quite readily. After all, tomorrow you are going to Tibet, and driving an adventure truck to the base of Mount Everest.
Treasures of Lhasa and Colossal Passes
You fly to Lhasa and soon realise that jumping straight onto the road would be a mistake. The sacred city is full of cultural treasures to explore. Jokhang Temple, Sera Monastery… these are just some of the marvels of Lhasa and heritage of Tibetan Buddhism. After you have ― let’s be honest ― barely scratched the surface of what Lhasa has to offer, you set out for the towards Shigatse, Tibet’s second largest city. This adventure involves some of the most satisfying driving you have ever done. You must go over several mountain passes that exceed the 5 thousand metres altitude. Just to put things in perspective, you are driving much higher than Mont Blanc. From this precipitous passes you negotiate switchbacks that demand your full attention. This is a serious adventure.
