Tibet Highland Tours

Tibet Highland Tours, though not the largest company around, we are among the most experienced around. Our office managers have been working in tourism in Tibet for over 20 years and know all areas of Tibet extremely well. The company was started by local Tibetans, most of whom had been working for over 20 years already as tour guides, managers, and route builders. We can work with you to create the perfect itinerary suited specifically for you. Unlike many travel agencies that arrange tours to Tibet, we are not based in Beijing, Chengdu or Shanghai. We are based right in the heart of Lhasa, less than a 1 minute walk from Barkhor Square. All of our office staff, guides and drivers are Tibetans who are intimately familiar with Tibetan culture, language and religion. This gives us an advantage over most companies arranging travel to Tibet. Our company is not out just to make money. Our goal is to give back to as many poor Tibetan communities as possible. Several of our office staff are from remote, poor villages at the base of the Himalaya Mountains. A portion from each tour goes towards projects that we carry out in these communities.

Road To Tibet

While working as a tour guide for seven years, I discovered how much I loved meeting travelers and making their Tibet dreams come true. This led to the creation of my own company, Road To Tibet, in 2007. Fast forward, and I have now welcomed more than 1,500 groups to the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR), Kham, and Amdo. Whatever your interests and budget, I can create the ideal itinerary and take care of all the arrangements for train and overland transportation, domestic flights, hotels, trekking guides, home-stays and special interests such as cycling and photography. Introducing my clients to Tibet and supporting my cultural heritage in this way is an honor I take very seriously. Please feel free to contact me. It's never too early to start planning!
