No direct bus service is available between Saga and Shigatse, but you can charter a vehicle through local transport companies or travel agencies (approx. RMB 800–1200/day, 6–7 hours’ drive). Saga County Bus Station offers intra-county buses and tourist charter services—confirm in advance. For travel to Lhasa, you can first charter a car to Shigatse (RMB 800/day), then take a bus from Shigatse to Lhasa (multiple daily departures, RMB 150–200, 5–6 hours). Full-day charter from Saga to Lhasa (10–12 hours) costs RMB 1200–2000/day depending on vehicle type.
