 I have read and heard so many conflicting things about travelling to Tibet. Can someone who has done it recently please clear this up? Do you need both a visa and a permit to enter Tibet? Where do you get each of these things? I am planning to enter Tibet from Kathmandu. How can I do this? Can I rent a car or no? Is that recommended? How much is the bus? Is that recommended? Can I get a visa/permit in Kathmandu? Is it different from getting it elsewhere? How does one get around Tibet without a tour or guide? How and where does one find a guide? Is a guide different from a tour? How much does a guide/tour generally cost? I know there are many questions, but I'm sooo confused.
Thanks.

If you are coming to Lhasa from Kathmandu, you'd better get China visa from Kathmandu because no matter you've already got the visa in your country or not, you must get a visa in Kathmandu, which is regulated in an official memo between China and Nepal.
If you want to enter Lhasa, you would choose to rent a car or take the public bus to Lhasa,it is not expensive and very easy to find the car.
