There are two base camps for Mt Everest – the main one for multi-day hikers in the south in Nepal and another base camp to the north of the peak in Tibet, China, accessible by road.
Extreme Bike Tours’ unique 14-night Tibet tour takes in the northern base camp, offering spectacular, close-up views of Everest, and, on the back of a classic Royal Enfield 450cc Himalayan motorbike, also ventures across the vast, treeless expanse of the Tibetan Plateau – billed as the roof of the world – to the iconic ‘Forbidden City’ of Lhasa.

The breathtaking route features the majestic Potala Palace in Lhasa and remote Tibetan villages and takes riders as close as two wheels can get to the planet’s tallest peak, Mt Everest, with North Base Camp sitting at an altitude of 5200m.
