The “Roof of the World”, Tibet is on the top of most world traveler “must see” lists. Every bit worthy of this distinction, with your Starry Host, P.K. Chen, you go past the checklists, traveling with like-minded group members, pausing to take in the stars while camping along the shores of Namtso lake perched at over 4,700 meters above sea level and from the peaceful nomadic grasslands in the valley. Along the way, myriad ancient and living monasteries and a nunnery, interspersed with a visit to the former temple home of a respected Tibetan Yogini and dinner with a local doctor who provides basic healthcare to local villagers, help you develop an understanding for the real experiences of the communities that spend their lives in these pristine landscapes.
On this 11-day, small group departure, you venture to the remote mountains, grasslands and lakes of Tibet in search of some of the best stargazing skies the world has to offer, all the while mindfully engaging with daily Tibetan life, spirituality and living history – emerging from this short escape both rejuvenated and forever changed.
