The total mileage of this trip is about 5,500 kilometers, which takes about 16 days.

Detailed cost 1. Fixed expenses: gas, tolls, scenic spots tickets.

1, fuel cost: different cars will have different fuel consumption. Oil prices in Tibetan areas are 20% more expensive than those in the mainland, and Bomi area is as high as 9 yuan. The fuel consumption of cars and off-road vehicles here is 65438+ 1km, 5500km * * * 5500 yuan on average in 0 yuan.

2. Toll: Chengdu to Lhasa needs to pass Chengya Expressway and Yakang Expressway, and the toll is 105 yuan; From Lhasa to Xining, it costs 295 yuan to take the 109 national road to Qinghai-Tibet. It costs 437 to take the 2 13 national highway from Xining to Chengdu. The total fare is less than 900 yuan.

3. Tickets for scenic spots: Luding Bridge 10 yuan, 30 yuan in Jinsha River, 50 yuan in Midui Glacier, Namco 120 yuan, 200 yuan in Potala Palace and 50 yuan in Jokhang Temple, all within 500 yuan.

To sum up, the fixed cost is about 5500+900+500=7000 yuan (about).

2. Non-fixed expenses: catering and accommodation.

1, meal fee: 3 18 As a domestic tourist attraction, the Sichuan-Tibet line is supported by the highest peak in the world and is short of materials, so consumption is much more expensive than that in the mainland. The price of a bowl of beef noodles on the Sichuan-Tibet line is generally 20. We calculate according to the average meal fee standard for normal travel, one day 100.

2. Accommodation fee: 3 18 The accommodation fee along the Sichuan-Tibet line is higher than that of similar hotels in the mainland. If you stay in a youth hostel, it is 50~ 100 beds, and if you stay in a hotel, it is 200~500 rooms. During the national day, the price of Sichuan-Tibet line hotel is 400~800. Let's calculate the average accommodation fee for a normal trip. 300 yuan is one day.

After 16, the variable cost of catering and accommodation is about 400× 16=6400 yuan.

In fact, when traveling to Lhasa, Tibet, especially in the peak season of June-65438+10, the average daily accommodation fee in 400 yuan is really not high. If you really want to save money, you can get 100 yuan a day: dinner in 30 yuan, youth travel in 70 yuan.

3 18 Sichuan-Tibet Line's room and board expenses are called "unfixed expenses" because people's consumption levels are different and tourism expenses fluctuate greatly. Generally speaking, if you don't stay in a youth travel service or a five-star hotel, your average daily accommodation fee is around 400.

In addition, a 5000 vehicle maintenance reserve fund should be prepared. Be prepared whether you spend money or not. You must understand that you are driving a road to the highest mountain in the world, so you need to be prepared for it.

In fact, everyone is wrong about the idea that the 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line is more expensive than going abroad.

3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line is indeed more expensive than traveling abroad, but we must understand the following common sense: only Tibet has the highest peak in the world, only Tibet is called the last pure land on the blue planet, and only Tibet has those determined people who worship Jokhang Temple.

All this is unmatched by foreign scenery. Many foreigners really want to travel to Lhasa, Tibet, and have a lot of money, but they can't pass the border checkpoint without a mainland ID card.

Generally speaking, the total expenses are as follows: fixed expenses 7000 (fuel, toll and scenic spot tickets)+non-fixed expenses 6400 (meals and accommodation)+maintenance reserve fund 5000= 18000.

According to the general consumption level, the total cost will be13000 even if the vehicle maintenance reserve fund is not spent;

If it is extremely economical, the room and board will be 100 per day, and the car will be fine. The cost of this lap is also around 8000.

In short, according to the historical data of road travel, the total cost of a car from Chengdu to Tibet is around 15000~20000. If a car is just full, the per capita consumption will be lower and the most cost-effective.

1. Sichuan-Tibet line refueling problem: 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line is not short of gas stations, 92 # and 95 # gasoline and diesel oil (there are many car thieves). It should be noted that due to the shortage of oil, sometimes the gas station will run out of oil, so try to refuel as much as possible.

2. Documents of Sichuan-Tibet line: 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line was inspected very strictly. No matter whether you pass the checkpoint or the border checkpoint, you need three certificates, and you must show your ID card, driver's license and driving license even when you refuel. The ID card and driver's license must be the same.

If it is only the above-mentioned traditional Sichuan-Qingdao route, there is no need for border defense; If you want to go to Gangrinpoche and Everest Base Camp, you must prepare a border card.

3. Road condition of Sichuan-Tibet line: 3 18 The rotten roads of Sichuan-Tibet line are concentrated in Batang to Mangkang and Haitonggou, and the most dangerous section is Jueba Mountain. These sections need to be driven carefully.

Besides, the terrain of the 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line is rugged, and the road is steep and steep, so we must go slow. Drivers in the city who have no mountain driving experience had better not set foot on the 3 18 Sichuan-Tibet line.

Well, everyone understands that we must bring enough money, as much as possible, in case of emergency, and we must pay attention to safety when driving here. The road here is a little rough. Finally, I wish you a pleasant journey!
