Namaskar from Uttarakhand Tour Travels
We bring you critical information regarding the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra 2026 received from the Association of Kailash Tour Operators Nepal (AKTON).
Chinese authorities (Foreign Exchange Center – FEC) have issued the official 2026 contract, mandating significant price revisions for Indian pilgrims along with strict operational policy changes.
Mandatory Price Increase (Effective Immediately)
⚠️ These rates are NON-NEGOTIABLE and apply to ALL bookings (new + existing).
Additional Cost Alert
Chinese authorities propose a fixed kitchen system – potential extra USD 150/person for standardized meals (final confirmation pending).
CRITICAL Travel Restriction
Saga Dawa Festival (17 May – 16 June 2026):
Saga Dawa Festival permits HIGHLY RESTRICTED.
❌ NO yatra departures recommended during this sacred period.
