Starting in Kathmandu on September 7, 2014, and also September 21, 2014, the two, 14-day Tibet tours will take riders across the remote and treeless expanse of the 4500m-high Tibetan plateau – billed as the roof of the world. The breathtaking route also takes in the Dalai Lama’s spectacular Potala Palace in Lhasa and remote Tibetan villages and monasteries and traces some of the world’s highest roads leading to the 5200m-high Everest Base Camp - as close as two wheels can get to the planet’s tallest peak.
Guests will ride legendary Royal Enfield 500cc Royal Enfield Desert Storm motorbikes, which were once manufactured in the UK but are now made in India and tailored to handle the rough and winding roads of the Himalayas.
Featured on TV’s ‘Top Gear’ program, in 2011, Extreme Bike Tours is based in India and owned by former Englishman and adrenalin junkie, Zander Combe. Up to 80 per cent of riders are from Australia and New Zealand.
