Special Note

• 1. Conditions in Tibetan areas are limited (water and power outages are common). Please bring your own toiletries, flashlights, wet wipes, etc. Friends with germophobia, please bring your own sleeping bags.
• 2. This activity route involves high-altitude areas in Tibet. Children under 5 years old are not suitable to participate; pregnant women, infants, patients with heart, lung, brain, and blood system diseases, and seniors over 70 years old should consult a doctor before traveling, proceed with caution, and act according to their physical condition and capabilities.
• 3. Plateau travel carries certain risks and unpredictability. All participants are deemed to be persons with full civil capacity, in good health, and aware of the risks of plateau tourism. Travelers must not have underlying conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart disease. Our agency will not be liable for any compensation arising from altitude sickness.
• 4. There are no shopping arrangements on this tour, and neither the team leader nor the driver will make any shopping recommendations. During free time, if team members do not have a need to purchase, do not bargain with locals or linger too long. If team members voluntarily shop, please discern product quality on your own. If a transaction intention is reached after bargaining, please make the purchase. If you bargain and then change your mind and do not buy, it can easily cause trouble, and you will be responsible for any conflicts or disputes that arise from this.
• 5. If there are no team members requiring special care, seats will be taken in rotation one by one.
• 6. For hotels in the itinerary list, our agency's room allocation staff will arrange rooms based on the room availability at various stages. Tourists/tour groups cannot unilaterally specify rooms. If the preferred hotel is fully booked, an alternative hotel will be arranged; in special circumstances such as peak season, due to tight room supply, a hotel of the same standard will be arranged. Hotels are arranged for two people per room, and the room type cannot be specified. If the total number of rooms is not affected, and the group encounters a single male or single female, our agency will arrange for them to share a room with a person of the same sex. If a guest insists on staying alone, the guest must directly pay the single room supplement fee to the hotel front desk (the specific amount is subject to the hotel's charges). Conditions in Tibetan areas are limited, and accommodation standards cannot be compared with those in cities. For environmental protection, it is recommended to bring your own toiletries. When entering the room, please check the room amenities. If any amenities are missing, please notify the service staff immediately. In the room, please take care of items as required by the hotel. If there is any damage or loss, please compensate according to hotel regulations before checking out.
• 7. Without reducing the number of main attractions, the team leader has the right to adjust the order of visiting attractions based on factors such as weather, flights, transportation, season, and peak season crowds.
• 8. If some attractions in the itinerary encounter unexpected accidents, objective reasons such as rest, closure for maintenance, or other emergencies, the team leader will provide an itinerary change plan to ensure the smooth progress of the trip as much as possible. The change plan will be voted on by all team members, with the minority abiding by the majority. The tour time will be adjusted or relevant ticket fees will be refunded according to the actual situation, and any additional expenses incurred due to changes will be borne by the tourists.
• 9. Traveling in Tibetan areas involves many things you cannot understand or tolerate in a bustling city: in terms of hardware, there are issues with water, electricity, and transportation. Sudden water and power outages often occur, and temporary traffic controls frequently catch us off guard. Please be mentally prepared.
• 10. Due to the less-than-ideal traffic conditions in plateau areas, natural disasters such as collapses, landslides, and mudslides may occasionally occur, which could lead to traffic jams and delays. Therefore, it is recommended that friends from outside the province try to purchase plane or train tickets for departure on the second day.
• 11. Guests are not allowed to leave the group without permission. If forced to leave the group, a letter of undertaking for leaving the group must be signed. During the period of leaving the group, the guest shall be solely responsible for any personal safety or property losses.
• 12. Pre-paid items in the itinerary are non-refundable (e.g., carpooling fees, same-day hotel cancellations), and no refunds will be given if voluntarily forfeited.
• 13. Our agency is not responsible for itinerary delays or other expenses caused by force majeure (such as weather, delays, etc.). Such expenses shall be borne by the guests themselves. If the railway bureau temporarily cancels a service, all compensation will be handled according to the railway bureau's compensation system and is not related to our agency.
• 14. This trip will be entirely on a plateau, with a long journey and complex road conditions, so vehicles are very likely to break down. If a vehicle breaks down, please wait patiently or work together to resolve the issue. The normal resolution process is: if the vehicle cannot be repaired within 2 hours, in order not to affect the itinerary, we will arrange for local vehicles to continue the journey, with the cost covered by the company. We ask for the cooperation of all team members. For team members who refuse to change vehicles, it will be considered that they voluntarily abandon the trip, and we will refund any unused accommodation fees and tickets, and the contract will be terminated.
• 15. During your trip, please always keep your valuables safe. When resting at night, please lock the hotel's anti-theft lock and close the doors and windows.
• 16. Respect the original culture, local customs, and religious beliefs. Due to religious influence, customs in the Northwest differ from ours. When visiting, please remember to follow the local guide's instructions regarding travel precautions. Do not mention political issues concerning ethnic minorities in any setting, and avoid topics related to "pigs" to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings.
• 17. When traveling, pay attention to your health. Do not eat raw food, raw seafood, peeled fruits, or visit unlicensed roadside stalls, and avoid overeating. Drink plenty of boiled water, eat more fruits and vegetables, smoke less, and drink less alcohol. When first arriving at a high-altitude area, do not shower within the first 2 days. After 2 days, decide based on your physical condition to avoid catching a cold, which could trigger or worsen altitude sickness and affect your entire trip. In high-altitude or Tibetan areas, water and electricity supply may be insufficient, and water temperature might be unstable. Before showering, test the water temperature with your hand to avoid scalding from excessively hot water or catching a cold from excessively cold water. There might also be water outages during showering, so shower quickly. If you have long hair, it is recommended to wash your hair and shower separately to avoid situations where you haven't finished, but the hot water has run out or the water supply has stopped.
• 18. The organizer of this event will arrange relevant insurance for each team member suitable for this event. If personal injury occurs during the event, the injured party shall be compensated by the insurance company in accordance with legal provisions, this statement, and insurance regulations. Our agency shall not bear any liability for compensation in the absence of subjective fault. For those who register on behalf of others, if the registered participant suffers personal injury, our agency shall not bear any liability for compensation.
• 19. The travel agency provides basic travel accident insurance as a gift, rather than purchasing it on behalf of the guests. If tourists believe the insured amount does not meet their needs, they can purchase high-coverage insurance themselves.
