  • How to book the Chengdu Tibet train ticket?

    You can book your Chengdu to Tibet train ticket either through the official website or via a travel agency like ours. However, the official site only accepts payments through Chinese banks and apps like WeChat or Alipay, making it challenging for foreign tourists who have never been to China.

    The best way is to book your Chengdu Tibet train tour with us, which includes the train ticket to Lhasa in the package. Based in Lhasa with a local office in Chengdu, we at Tibet Vista guarantee you a smooth train journey from Chengdu to Tibet with one-stop tour services. From the train ticket booking to the Tibet Travel Permit application, we take care of everything about your travel from Chengdu to Tibet.

  • How can I get my Tibet train ticket from you?

    Since the Tibet train ticket is now purchased in your real name, you can use your passport and the Tibet Travel Permit to board the train directly at the station, saving you the hassle of queuing for tickets. However, it's important to ensure that the passport information used for the ticket matches the details on your Tibet Travel Permit, including your name and passport number.

  • Which Tibet train tickets should I buy: hard sleeper or soft sleeper?

    If you book a Chengdu to Lhasa train tour with us, the hard sleeper train ticket has already been included in the tour package. The hard sleeper cabin can accommodate 6 passengers and you can sleep on the bunk. Though a bit cramped, it’s nice and clean and quite cost-effective.

    If you’re looking for more privacy, a soft sleeper is the best choice. The soft sleeper cabin accommodates only 4 passengers, offering more space and better amenities, such as a TV, carpet, and a small clothes rack. You can discuss this with our travel consultants to see if you should upgrade your ticket. However, due to the limited number of soft sleeper tickets, it can be quite difficult to purchase one during peak season.

  • When is the best time to take a Chengdu to Tibet train tour?

    If you want to visit Mount Everest or Mount Kailash in Tibet, the best time for a Tibet tour from Chengdu by train is from April to October. During these months, the weather is mild, making it ideal for sightseeing and outdoor activities with clear mountain views.

    If you only want to visit Lhasa and its surroundings, you can take a Chengdu to Lhasa train tour year-round. In winter, the low season for Tibet tourism, you'll find great discounts and it’s easier to secure a Chengdu to Lhasa train ticket.

  • How many days are enough for a Chengdu to Lhasa train tour?

    It takes 2 nights onboard to take a train from Chengdu to Lhasa. In Chengdu, you can spend 1 or 2 days exploring the highlights of the city, such as the Giant Panda Base, and stroll through cultural and historical sites in downtown Chengdu. A classic Lhasa city tour typically lasts 2 days, covering iconic landmarks such as the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Sera Monastery, and Drepung Monastery.

    Overall, a comprehensive Chengdu to Lhasa train journey generally takes about 7 days. If you have specific interests, you can easily extend your trip to around 10 days or more. For instance, if you're planning to visit Everest Base Camp from Chengdu by train, you should spend at least 9 days. Similarly, if you want to experience an overland tour from Lhasa to Kathmandu, including the train ride, plan for about 10 days.

  • Do I need to be worried about altitude sickness on board the Chengdu to Lhasa train?

    Absolutely not! All trains to Tibet are equipped with oxygen supply systems. As the train passes through Golmud, oxygen will be released through the oxygen outlet in the train cabin.  There are also separate oxygen outlets for individual use. You can ask for the oxygen tube from the staff on board for the convenience of oxygen inhaled.

    However, because of the oxygen supply in the carriage, the air inside has a higher oxygen content than outside. Once you arrive in Lhasa, you’ll still need time to acclimate to the altitude of 3,650 meters. It's important to avoid strenuous exercise and to rest well at your hotel on your arrival day. This will give your body the chance to adapt to the altitude and recover from the long train journey.

  • Can I have a shower on the train from Chengdu to Lhasa?

    There are no shower facilities on the Tibet train, largely due to the concern for the conservation of fresh water. Meanwhile, it can effectively reduce the chance for passengers to catch a cold, which can be a serious health issue on the Tibetan Plateau. However, hot water and water for washing face and hands and fruits are available.
