6. Do I need to be in good physical condition to take a Tibet tour?

Drinking plenty of water, avoiding alcohol and caffeine, eating light meals, and taking it easy for the first few days can help alleviate symptoms. Seeking medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen is important. It is recommended to consult with a doctor before travelling to Tibet, especially if you have a history of medical conditions that may be affected by the high altitude.
8. At what age are children suitable for a Tibet tour?
There is no specific age requirement for children to take a Tibet tour, but it is important to consider the high altitude and physical demands of some activities.
