Frequently Asked Questions about Tibet Biking Tour
-
Q: What’s the difference between 4+2 biking tour and general biking tour
Unlike the traditional biking tour, with food or gears loaded on the bike, the 4+2 cycling mode combines the cycling tour with an extra use of a 4-wheel motor vehicle to give you the ultimate convenience and extra guarantee for safety, esp. for a tough ride in Tibet. When you pass treacherous road or places with heavy traffic, or the steep slope that is beyond your limit, you can jump on the tour vehicle and enjoy the safe ride before reaching the next proper road for cycling. Besides, the staff, chef, and doctor travelling with you on the tour vehicle will give you timely help in an emergency.
