Sleeper train tickets to Lhasa are sold out quickly all year long, so it’s essential that you book your Tibet Train tickets with us as early as possible, especially with the new regulation of China Railway since 2015 allows train tickets to be purchased 60-day in advance. If you wait to close to tour starting date to purchase the train tickets to any major city in China, its really difficult to arrange the train ticket.
