Your use of this website constitutes your agreement to all such terms and conditions.

1. Alterations of Itineraries

Alterations to your itinerary before the finalized booking are happily processed free of charge. Alterations after the payment of the initial deposit will incur a fee of 5% per request. In addition, all expenses incurred by Itourstibet to alter a finalized booking are the responsibility of the customer. This includes all fees and charges levied by third parties such as cruise operators, train ticket agents, airlines and hotels.

2. Travel Documentation

All clients must be in possession of a valid passport and the necessary visas or permits at the commencement of travel. All such documentation is the sole responsibility of the client. Your travel advisor may assist you in applying for the necessary travel documentation upon request. Itourstibet accepts no responsibility or liability whatsoever for the failure of clients to obtain appropriate travel documentation necessary for your tour.

3. Health Requirements

Clients should take into account all international travel risks and familiarize themselves with health requirements applicable to the areas they intend to visit. The client is solely responsible for checking the safety and security conditions, vaccination, and other health requirements of governments in countries visited or transited. Travelers to Tibet are required to provide a doctor's certificate stating that he/she is fit to travel and his/her blood pressure and heart condition are normal. This is a necessary requirement because of the possible effects that the very high altitude of Tibet may have on certain people.

Excess baggage charges are the sole responsibility of the client. Regulations within China specify that all suitcases must have a locking device attached. Failure to follow this regulation may result in refusal by airport staff to load suitcases onto the aircraft.

5. Insurance

Itourstibet tour packages include China Life Tourist Accident/Casualty Insurance up to a maximum of $29,000 provided free of charge as part of our package. We still highly recommend that you purchase full coverage travel insurance from your country of origin.
