Tibetan travel agency in Lhasa

Most local Tibetan travel agencies in Lhasa , are not very visible on popular search engine like google, bing and etc. It is rather hard to find them directly or you might end up choosing a non local base agency claiming to be one.  The main reason is people working in travel agencies in Lhasa are not tech savvy and websites are something they get for free from their well wishers.

Most owner of the travel agencies in Lhasa are a former Tour guides and they gradually owns a travel agency or run a Travel website.

There is always a significant benefit in choosing a local Tibetan travel agency for the local knowledge, on the field presence in Lhasa and expertise in Tourism. Their many travel companies own and run by non-experienced outsiders. Most of them do not have field experience, which is why many travellers end up in a nightmare when it comes to reality during the tour.

This is why it is a must for every traveller to choose you, service provider, wisely before booking a Tibet tour .

The benefit of booking your Tibet tour with a Tibetan travel agency in Lhasa

1) local experience and knowledge.

Tibetan travel agency is mainly based in Lhasa, and there are either owned by or supported by former Tibet tour guides. This makes them stand tall in front of their counterpart in providing quality services, the most enriching and enjoyable tours in Tibet.

They know the place. They know the local customs and routes like no other non-Tibetan travel agency. So it is a must for you to book a Tibet tour with a Tibetan travel agency in Lhasa or Tibet if you want more significant value for your money.

2) Your money goes directly to your tour provider, which means a more economical tour.

If you book a tour with a local Tibetan travel agency in Lhasa, your money goes directly to your Tibet travel agency. This is because there are no middlemen so that the tour will be more reasonable for you. For example, suppose a tour agency in Nepal pass your tour to a Tibet travel agency, and they (Tibet travel agency) will have to give them the price. The Nepal agency will make some extra in their services, and the tour will be more expensive for travellers.

Sometimes other travel agencies force us to cut the price so that they can add some price as a middleman, which in total, will be equal to the price offered by the local travel agency. This makes you get low-quality service at the end.

Last year we met a french man, who booked his tour with the travel agencies based in Nepal. When he enters China, he realizes that his guide can’t even speak understandable English, and he got a car, which is very old, and all the accommodations are given in local cheap guest house thought out the tour.

He regretted not spending more time on the internet and emails to find an excellent reasonable travel agency in Lhasa. We hope this will not happen to you.

3) You will support the local economy.

Many Lhasa based Tibet travel agency hires local help, from the guide to the crew members like cooks, if you’re trekking in Tibet. Many travellers want to travel in Tibet with local Tibetans.

Almost every Tibetan travel agency hire a local Tibetan guide, cab drivers and crew members. So if you go with the local Tibetan guide, there is always an advantage, like they speak the same language as locals and share the same culture and beliefs. So if in need, there can arrange help where ever you go.

Many of the Tibetan guides know the hotels and other service providers very well, and this would do better quality service for you. If you have very tricky questions about the monastery or any attractions, all the monks or staff in the temple will immediately give you the correct answer.

4) Better service .

In the case of cars, local Tibet travel agencies are in better personal touch with the cab drivers. For guides too, local travel agencies have better personal relations with them. This personal relationship and continuous business relations make the local travel agencies offer you a better guide and better cabs for the tour.

All the local travel agencies have a contract with all the hotels and the guest house. Therefore, if you book your tour with local agencies in Lhasa, there will be able to give you a better price for the hotels due to the contact they make every year.

Plus, our experience as a tour provider makes us well aware of the pros and cons of each hotel and accommodation in Tibet.

We have always booked the hotels in the gold-star hotel Shambhala every time. Shambhala is a Gold-star hotel, provides equal service to that of four-star hotels, and the rooms give you the feeling of being in Tibet and sleeping in a local Tibetan house. After all, you want to visit Tibet to experience the local life.

If you would like us to recommend, We will honestly recommend some professional Tibetan tour operators in Lhasa. but please consider this, We are also a Tibet tour operator

Things to remember about Tibetan travel agency in Lhasa.

  • Bigger doesn’t mean better. Some of the best tour operators in Tibet are handled by a few personal. Smaller could mean a more personal approach.
  • Try to see if there are using a Tibetan name.

Suppose there is any information you would require about Tibet travel information. Please feel free to contact me. Even if you are not using my services, you can always contact me for an update. please write to me at [email protected]

  • Tibet Tour Operator in Kathmandu - Tibet Vista

As the closest neighbor to the Tibet Autonomous Region, Nepal is one of the obvious choices from which to take a trip to Tibet. Besides, known as the only international gateway to Tibet, Nepal has thousands of tour operators that run tours from Kathmandu to Lhasa, offering overland tours across the border at Gyirong Port and flights to Lhasa to start the tour there.

Faced with a variety of Tibet tour operators in Kathmandu, whether you can make the right choice or not will make a huge difference for your Tibet tour from Kathmandu. And our Tibet travel experts would like to enhance your understandings of Kathmandu to Tibet tour and teach you how to choose the reliable Tibet tour operators in Kathmandu .

Kathmandu - The Closest Gateway City to Tibet

With Nepal being the only country with an international flight to Tibet, it has become a major gateway to the region on the roof of the world, and thousands of tourists travel to Tibet through Kathmandu every year, both by flight and overland tour via Gyirong border. One of the more convenient entry points to Tibet, it is a favorable option to China, as there is no requirement to obtain the Chinese Entry Visa before traveling since the Group Tourist Visa is issued instead once you arrive in Kathmandu.

Gyirong Border

Nepal is also partially Buddhist, though the majority of people are Hindu. However, many of the people tend to follow elements of Buddhism in their Hindu faith, and the separate religions have incorporated aspects of each other’s practices and rituals. This makes for a unique opportunity to look at some of the other aspects of Buddhism in Nepal, before heading to Tibet to learn and experience more about Tibetan Buddhism.

With only 120 kilometers separating Kathmandu from the border crossing to Tibet, at Gyirong Port , traveling to Tibet from the Nepali capital is relatively easy, and quite inexpensive, with public buses costing as little as US$ 35 per person. And we offer convenient transfer service (on 7-seat 4 WD or 25-seat tour bus ) taking you directly from Kathmandu to your hotel in Gyirong County.

Current Tibet Tour Operators in Kathmandu

Kathmandu is the home of thousands of tour operators, many of which have sprung up to cover the increase in tourism in Nepal, thanks largely to the massive increase in interest in the spectacular trekking trails that can be found there. High-altitude treks can be done all over the Himalayan region of the country, from the 16-day trek to Annapurna Range to the dozens of Mount Everest Base Camp treks . With such a huge tourist industry now prevalent in the country, Kathmandu has become the capital of tour operators in Asia, and many of the tour operators now also include tours of Tibet and Bhutan in their listed itineraries.

Be Aware of the Trap When Booking Your Tour

However, with such fierce competition among the tour operators, offering the tours to Bhutan Nepal Tibet is often done through a third party, while the company you are booking through is merely the travel agent, which can be a dangerous choice. In order to offer their own tours to Tibet or Bhutan, tour operators must be registered with the respective tourist bureaus in each place, and many travel agents offering tours to Tibet from Nepal are doing so using a third-party connection. Cheap, third-party tour operators are often used to manage the tours to Tibet, instead of the travel agent that you pay the money for the tour, and many of these cheaper tours are disorganized and have poor services . And the third-party is paid less by the travel agent due to their commission, and the tour often does not live up to the expectations of the tourists, ending with bad experiences and a ruined vacation.

One of the ways to avoid this kind of pitfall when booking your tour to Tibet from Kathmandu is to do a little research on the tour operators and find out if they are the ones that are registered with the Tibet Tourism Bureau in Lhasa. Only a registered tour operator can manage tours to the region, and to avoid the hassles and problems that may occur, it is best to avoid travel agents that use third-party tour operators.

Why You Should Choose Tibet Vista for Tibet Tour

There are still many tour operators that run tours from Nepal to Tibet, and that do not use third-party tour operators to actually run the tours. As a well-established Tibet tour operator with over 10 years, we, Tibet Vista, can be one of your most reliable choices for running your Tibet tour from Nepal and there are good reasons.

Tibet Vista Is the Only Local Tibet Travel Agency with Offices in Kathmandu and Chengdu

When you book a tour through our service, not only are you dealing directly with the same people that will organize your tour, but you will also be using the same tour operator that will provide the guide, driver, and private vehicle, etc. for the entire tour. We do not use third-party operators to handle their tours in Tibet, and everything is done “in-house”, from the booking and itinerary details to the actual trip itself and the personal support that is provided throughout the tour.

Our Kathmandu office address is: Shiviji Niwash Kusumbiyalachi Marg Thaihiti Kathmandu 44600 Nepal

Tibet Vista in Kathmandu

We not only manage every aspect of the tour from the minute you first contact us to the day you leave Tibet but offer a full service to obtain all of the permits and other required documents that you will need to travel from Nepal to Tibet and around the region. This includes the Tibet Travel Permit , the Alien’s Travel Permit, and the permits to visit Mount Everest and other places near the Sino-Nepal border.

With offices in Chengdu and Kathmandu, we are able to provide tourist-friendly service to help you obtain your Group Tourist Visa on your behalf, as well as bring you the permits you need to travel into and around Tibet.

Tibetan Tour Operators in Tibet

Tibet is one of the most amazing and adventurous destinations of China and traveling to Tibet can be an expensive trip. Taking a tour to the Roof of the World is an unforgettable experience, and is not the easiest vacation to arrange.

Since all international tourists are required to be on a pre-arranged Tibet tour , complete with a private tour guide, driver, and vehicle, tourists to the region want to ensure that their travel agent is the best they can possibly be.

And there are many factors to take into consideration when deciding on a Tibet Tour Operator to help you organize the most outstanding trip on the planet. There are many travel agent or travel companies in Tibet. Some are run by Chinese and others are run by Tibetan.

Table of Contents

Where is the Tibetan Tour Operator From?

The first thing to think about is where they are from. There are literally thousands of websites on the internet that offer tours of Tibet , and many of them are not even in the region. A very large percentage of the tour operators offering tours are based outside the Tibet Autonomous Region (TAR), and often outside China as well.

Many of the internationally located tour operators are inexperienced in Tibetan tours and use the services of a third party to run the actual tour, and once they are paid, they pass the tourists on to the third party and forget about them.

There are also a large number of tour operators that are located in mainland China, from Chengdu to Beijing, many of whom have never been to the plateau, yet still offer advice and tours for travelers looking for a trip to Tibet . Without having experience in the field in Tibet, these tour operators are not always the best option for touring Tibet, as there is no personal touch, which makes all the difference.

However, there are a number of tour operators that are located actually in Tibet, mostly in the Tibetan capital of Lhasa. Many of these smaller and more personal tour operators began as former tour guides that go out on their own, building up their business with recommendations from former clients. And there is a big advantage to choosing a tour operator that is actually based in the Tibetan capital, including the opportunity to meet your tour operator at their office in the city.

Among it, the Explore Tibet travel company is one of the Tibetan owned travel company in Lhasa, Tibet. According to the TripAdvisor, it has been chosen as a top travel company in Tibet and has great reviews about their services.

Qualities of Tibet Tour Operators

The quality of the tour you are booking is an important factor when choosing a tour operator, as nobody wants to take a tour that is not the best possible tour. When choosing a tour operator from Lhasa, you are guaranteed to get an excellent quality tour, with attentive and experienced guides, excellent support staff, and knowledge of the plateau region that is second to none. Many of the tour operators that operate outside the TAR cannot provide the support and experienced staff that local Tibetan tour operators can.

Experienced Tour Guides

Who would want to go on a tour and find that their tour guide does not know much about where you are traveling or has very little experience in guiding tours of their own country? Here at Explore Tibet, all their guides are knowledgeable and experienced, many with more than a decade of practical tour guide experience under their belts.

Your tour guide plays a crucial role in giving you the history and the real stories behind the places and things that you will see while traveling in Tibet. What’s more, only a local tour guide can give you the cultural insight you need when traveling through the many small Tibetan villages and communities.

Tibet tour -Explore Tibet

It is also important to know that your tour guide is well versed in first aid training, and knows how to handle emergencies and instances of altitude sickness in remote locations. All of our guides are fully trained in first aid and have first-hand knowledge of altitude sickness, its symptoms, and how to treat them.

Excellent Tour Packages

We all want to have the best possible tour, and while many travel agents outside Tibet may have a vast range of what appear to be amazing tours. Most are booked by the travel agent through a local tour operator or through a travel agent located in mainland China. Large companies may offer a lot of different trips and itineraries but are often not very clued up on the small details of the tour, such as changes in opening times of certain monasteries and popular sites or the local weather.

While at Explore Tibet do not have 1,000 different tour itineraries to choose from, they do have a good range of pre-arranged group tours to choose from, which take you to all of the most popular places you would want to see in Tibet.

They also have an option to customize your itinerary to meet your own individual requirements. You choose where to go and what you want to see and they will give you a detailed itinerary of your complete tour of Tibet, based on local knowledge and experience gained from years of handling Tibetan tours.

Tibet Group Tour -Explore Tibet

Only a tour operator from Tibet can give you the information you need in precise detail to ensure that you get the perfect tour for your needs, whether those needs are based on budget or simply on desire.

Eco-Friendly and Environmental

The Tibetan plateau is a very delicate environment, and to maintain the precise balance on the Tibetan plateau requires a lot of hard work. Here at Explore Tibet, they are dedicated to reducing the impact of tourism on the environment and only providing tours that are part of the practice of Responsible Tourism .

Too high a negative impact on the plateau from mass tourism could result in a breakdown of the environment that you are looking forward to seeing most, causing irreparable damage for future generations.

Being a local Tibetan tour operator , they have a unique respect for their own land and want to preserve their own rich culture, indigenous traditions. And unpolluted environment so that future generations of Tibetans and travelers can enjoy the beauty of the plateau, the land they all call home.

They also have a respect for eco-tourism, and use local hotels and family-run guesthouses for our clients to stay in, ensuring that the local economy is supported by your trip. They have always encouraged the development of local economies by using local services first and foremost. Check our extensive information on their policies Responsible Tourism.

Inclusive Services

What you get for your money is important to you, and they understand that clearly. Your tours are designed to give you the very best of everything, and They really mean that. While many non-local tour operators merely give you the tour and the guide/driver/vehicle for their tour costs, but they have a wider range of inclusive items that many tour operators do not offer.

Not only do they provide the group or private tour with a local cellphone with a local SIM card that accepts international calls (complete with all our contact information already included on the phone). They also include a complete first-aid kit in the vehicle, oxygen cylinders in the car for aiding with altitude sickness , bottled mineral water for all tours , a handy guide book/map to help you make the most of your free time, free airport shuttle buses twice a day.

They arrange your accommodation and breakfast meals for you, from one of our recommended hotels and guesthouses or the hotel of your choice. They will make the booking and the cost is included in your original tour quote. And if you want, even make the arrangements for your train or flight to Tibet from Nepal or mainland China.

Who you choose to provide your tour to Tibet really is up to you. But wouldn’t you want to have the best possible tour of Tibet for your money? That is what we want you to have.

Forbidden Lhasa and Everest Base Camp - 9 Days Tour

Forbidden Lhasa and Everest Base Camp - 9 Days

everything about this tour was more than we could have hoped for. From the moment we were met at Kathmandu airport by Mr. Rana we were completely taken care of. Our permit for Tibet was ready the three days later needed by the Chinese embassy in Kathmandu. We were transferred for our flight to Lhasa and met at hotel in KTM upon our overland return from Tibet. The tour of TIbet with driver and guide followed faithfully our itinerary, the highlight of course being an unobstructed sunrise of the north face of Everest. Our guide was very solicitous of us all the way, always being sure the altitude was OK for us. Both he and the driver were always on time, we travelled many kms. But not tiring. This was the trip of a lifetime, you indeed feel you are at the top on the world in these beautiful mountain valleys surrounded by unforgettable peaks. Unless you want to include Mount Kailish, this 9 day trip was the perfect amount of time, Staying in Lhasa for three nights helped the acclimatization to the altitude, although Everest Base Camp is a bit of a stretch. But the alternative to staying at a hotel two hours away outweighed the discomfort (we did not take diamox and were OK). Overland to Kathmandu from Tibetan border was an experience, but not to be missed. If I was to decide to do this over again, this would be the itinerary, and Adventure Himalayan Travels out of Kathmandu would be the agent. To start in Lhasa and end in KTM is much the best direction, you need to have a week to acclimatize to 5200 m. At Everest, plus the view is better from the north side. This tour rates 100% for organization, facilitation, and the kindness of the people of Kathmandu and Tibet

I will contact Great Tibet Tour for my next China tour in 2022. We have two guides for the whole tour. One is Dajie who picks us up at the airport; the other is Lobsang who helps us with the sightseeing in Tibet. Dajie is fantastic and knowledgeable. Lobsang is humorous and helpful. We are both pleased with these two guides. The guide plays an important role on the whole tour. Our driver is very skillful. We feel safe in his car. We are looking forward to my next Tibet tour with Great Tibet Tour.

7 Days Lhasa to Kathmandu Overland Small Group Tour

Really loved the tour and the itinerary. The only thing that stopped it being better was the service on the Nepalese side. Once Tenzin had said goodbye the service level, transportation and overall experience was not great. We were packed into a very tight bus and the journey we had been told would take 6 hours actually took 15 (despite not stopping for lunch). The roads aren’t great and we were expecting that, but our bus really wasn’t up to the job and we had to keep stopping to move rocks and raise the bus up higher. The drivers were excellent and really tried hard, but we needed jeep type vehicles instead. Otherwise, the tour and overall experience was brilliant and our guide and driver in Tibet were exceptional.

Breathing the fresh mountain air and taking in the scenery, I will never forget it. Our Tibetan leader was the best part of our trip, wildly knowledgeable and funny to boot. I would do this trip again in an heartbeat.

New Zealand tour operators told to pay $7.8 million in fines and reparations over volcanic eruption

WELLINGTON, New Zealand — Tour booking agents and managers of a New Zealand island where a volcanic eruption killed 22 people in 2019 were ordered Friday to pay nearly $13 million (US$7.8 million) in fines and reparations.

The holding company of the island’s owners, a boat tour operator and three companies that operated helicopter tours had been found guilty of safety breaches at a three-month trial last year.

White Island, the tip of an undersea volcano also known by its Indigenous Māori name Whakaari, was a popular tourist destination before the eruption. There were 47 tourists and tour guides on the island when superheated steam erupted on Dec. 9, 2019, killing some people instantly and leaving survivors with agonizing burns .

“There is no way to measure the emotional harm survivors and affected families have endured and will continue to endure,” Judge Evangelos Thomas said during the sentencing in an Auckland court. “Reparation in a case like this can be no more than token recognition of that harm.”

“No review of prevailing reparation levels conducted by any other court contemplates emotional harm of the scale and nature that is present in this case. Greater awards are appropriate.”

Previously, a three-month, judge-only trial against 13 groups had seen six plead guilty and six other having charges against them dismissed. The charges were brought by regulators and carried fines as a maximum penalty.

The final remaining defendant in the trial was Whakaari Management Ltd. which was found guilty on one charge in October last year.

At Friday’s sentencing hearing, Thomas was particularly scathing towards the shareholders of WML, the holding company for the island’s owners: Andrew, James and Peter Buttle, who he said had “appeared to have profited handsomely” from tours to the island, despite the company claiming no assets or a bank account to hold funds.

While conceding he could not make orders against the individual owners, he said the ruling did not relieve WML from its $636,000 fine or its share of the reparations for the victims and their families of $2.97 million.

“This case, like many others, sadly reveals how simply corporate structures can be used to thwart meaningful responses to safety breaches,” Judge Thomas said. “There may be no commercial basis for doing so, but many would argue there is an inescapable moral one.”

“We wait to see what the Buttles will do. The world is watching.”

The specific reparation sums awarded to victims and the families of those who died was suppressed for publication by the court.

The last remaining defendant, New Zealand scientific agency GNS Science, the government agency that monitors volcanic activity, was fined $33,000 for failing to have processes to share risk assessments with its contracted helicopter pilots. No GNS staff were on the island at the time of the eruption and the agency was not ordered to make any reparations.

Tour Boat Operators Charged In Hudson River Capsize That Killed Woman, 7-Year-Old Boy

F ederal prosecutors have arrested two New Jersey tour boat operators in the 2022 drowning deaths of a 7-year-old boy and his aunt after their overcrowded vessel capsized while speeding in rough water off Manhattan, authorities said.

Richard Cruz, 32, and Jaime Pinilla Gomez, 25, were taken into custody Thursday and charged with one count each of misconduct and neglect of a ship resulting in death, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York announced .

On July 12, 2022, Cruz and Gomez’s 24-foot boat, the “Stimulus Money,” flipped over in the Hudson River while carrying 13 people. The operators allegedly did not have proper credentials or certifications.

While 11 people on the boat were able to escape, Lindelia Vasquez, 48, and 7-year-old Julian Vasquez became trapped beneath the vessel. Their bodies were recovered by a dive team approximately 25 minutes after the capsizing. Their cause of death was drowning, authorities said.

“This case demonstrates the deadly consequences of illegal passenger operations,” Rear Admiral John Mauger said in a statement reacting to the criminal charges. “Our thoughts are with the families of the victims today.”

Neither man was listed as having an attorney.

Cruz purchased the boat in cash off Facebook Marketplace about three months before the deadly accident, and started charging passengers $200 an hour for tours around the area, despite not having the required United States Coast Guard credentials and certifications to do so, authorities said.

Gomez, who was described in the complaint as an “insufficiently experienced mariner,” piloted the boat and allowed 13 people to board for the ill-fated trip, despite the boat’s 12-person limit and a small craft advisory being in effect at the time for New York Harbor, according to a copy of the criminal complaint.

“Inexperienced mariners, especially those operating smaller vessels,” were advised not to navigate the water due to the high winds and strong currents, the complaint states.

Once on the water, the boat allegedly traveled at high speeds in strong winds and heavy seas around lower Manhattan. It then entered some swells, causing its bow to take on water.

Gomez brought both throttles to a neutral position just as another swell hit the boat. The change in propulsion, coupled with the swell, caused the bow to become completely submerged up to its windshield. Gomez then accelerated the right-side throttle, exceeding the recommended rounds per minute for the vessel, just before it capsized on its left side, authorities said.

All 13 people on the boat were thrown overboard, according to authorities.

Authorities concluded that Gomez was not properly wearing a safety device that would have turned off the boat’s engine if he’d abruptly moved away from the piloting position. Had Gomez been wearing the device as required, investigators said, “the vessel may not have overturned.”

“The lanyard was still intact and attached to the helm console at the time of the capsizing, indicating that the pilot was not wearing the Engine Kill Switch Lanyard or not wearing it properly,” the complaint states.

Both men, who were scheduled to make their first court appearance on Thursday, face a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison.

“Federal regulations and safety protocols exist to ensure that captains and operators of commercial vessels keep passengers safe,” said U.S. Attorney Damian Williams in a statement. “The defendants allegedly flouted those regulations, recklessly disregarded safety protocols, operated the vessel at an unsafe speed in hazardous conditions, and overloaded the vessel with too many passengers onboard. And the result was tragic — a young boy and a woman were trapped under the vessel and drowned after the vessel capsized.”

  • 32 Migrants Dead, More Than 100 Rescued After Fishing Boat Capsizes Near Greece
  • At Least 22 Dead After Tourist Boat Capsizes In India's Kerala
  • 8 Dead After Smuggling Boat Capsizes Off San Diego Coast

Eleven people were able to escape the capsizing of the Stimulus Money, but two passengers -- a 48-year-old woman and her 7-year-old nephew -- were found unconscious beneath the boat and pronounced dead at the scene, authorities said.
