Actually I just had some clients return from Tibet back to the US last month. They spent about 10 days in Tibet visiting Lhasa/ Gyantze / Xigaze, which is a great triangle to cover the highlights of Tibet.
There is train now that can take you directly to Lhasa from Beijing, which takes 48 hours. This rail service started in July 2006. However because of the harsh Winter weather, there is no train in November. It will start running again next Spring.
We arranged for our clients the whole package tour, including the flight (They chose to fly in and out of Tibet instead of the train), the Travel Permit to Tibet, the hotel accommodation, meals and all the sightseeing with private tour guide. However, we can help you to purchase the train ticket to Tibet.
The scenery in Tibet is absolutely extraordinary! I talked to my clients both when they were in Tibet and after and they said they didn't feel the altitude sickness very much, other than when you walk upstairs you feel a little bit labored breathing.
The best time to go to Tibet, of course it's in the Summer, however the rate might be better in the Spring and Autumn. As you probably have heard that it's a little bit harsh in the Winter, but if you are going to Lhasa only, then it's open all year round.
If you have anymore questions we would be happy to help. You can contact me through our website: Jia@Jiasdreamtours.com

I saw some of the tracks when I was in Tibet this summer. It was pretty cool.
