Very well planned and organized trip by Tibet Traveler’s team. Our main contact Tenzin made sure everything has been thought of (even thing we haven’t thought of in advance).

During the trip we had a diverse set experiences varying from visiting touristy attractions in Lhasa, Yamdrok lake, Samye Monastery and Karo La glacier to absolute blast of a 4 days tracking experience in the middle of the Tibetan maintains.
That second part showed their great planning skills as literally everything was taken care off and managed to render this not so typical experience for “city people” extremely pleasant. All of us were just bibita in terms of hiking and tracking and yet this experience was as comfortable as it might get.

We had a full gear for those 4 days tracking including tents, yaks carrying around all the necessities, 2 people take care for the animals, a cook making sure we have great meals during the whole trip and of course a very experienced guide, leading us through this journey.

Highly recommended for mountain enthusiasts trying to see the genuine face of Tibet and escape the classic touristy areas.

We spent 7 days in Amazing Tibet at the beginning of January 2020. Tenzin was very helpful from the beginning when we contacted him to start with the preparations of our trip as there are some steps to bare in mind in regards Chinese visa and others. All the crew we have met from the agency (in Kathmandu and Tibet) were very nice, polite and great company; I have to highlight and at the same give a BIG THANK YOU to Gelek our guide and Nyima our driver for giving us such an amazing experience During our days in Tibet. Gelek is just an open book and a specialist in all topics related with his culture, we have learned so much about this fantastic culture from day one; it was also very helpful sharing with us his knowledge and experiences when it was time to get to mountain Everest. I feel we leave some good friends in Tibet, even when we were just for some days, they are just the kind of people you pray to have in trips like this.

P.d. Maybe you’re lucky enough to meet Gelek’s daughter, who is a charming 7 year old girl :)

I had a wonderful 10 days trip in Tibet organized by Tibet Travelers agency. The trip was well arranged, most of the hotel were well located, clean and the staff was friendly.
Special mention to the manager of Tibet Travelers: Tenzin, who was always available for assistance and has plenty of suggestions about the places to visit.
Many thanks to the travel guide Gelek too, who always look after any requests during these 10 days and gave lot of information about each place.
If you plan to have a trip in Tibet do not hesitate to contact them, you will not regret it :-)

Thank you so much tenzin (our main organizer) and Gelek (our tour guide) for the amazing tour through Tibet. We went from Lhasa - shigatse- saga to the remote area around Mt Kailash and guge kingdom. We saw astonishing landscape and monastery with detailed explanation of Gelek, who answered every question we had very patiently. The tour and permit was very well organize. Even one hiking trail was closed due heavy snow, Tenzin and Gelek organize a very good short notice alternative for the group. The trip will stay as very remarkable in our memories. We felt very comfortable and care with Tibet travelers. Thank you so much 🙏🙏

As a group of 9 we did a private tour from Lhasa to Mount Kailash and Guge Kingdom. The trip was adjusted individually depending on weather conditions. Our organizer and guide (Gelek) did a great job in taking care of us and any of our wishes, showing and explaining us off the track adventures and surprising us every day with spectacular nature and sights. Highly recommend the agency and Gelek as tour guide!

The 10 days we spent in Tibet organized by Tibet Travelers couldn’t have been better. Everything was well organized and it’s was all very pleasant and enjoying.
A huge mention and thank you to the manager of Tibet Travelers: Tenzin, who has been in reach the entire trip and has been friendly with our whole family and certainly has made the kids have a wonderful time with him.
And another huge mention to the travel guide Tenzin Gelek too, he has been with us on the entire trip and has helped us with all the trouble and is skilled in every matter that you ask. He helped us learn about all the sites and history of this entire trip and has made it a lot easier and more exciting.

We first chose Tibet travelers because of its reviews, and it was no regret at all. So if you plan on traveling with this agency, do not hesitate because you’ll will not regret it.

Tenzin is really professional in handling my last minute knock on his door. He answered my endless questions with precision, speed, and truthfulness such that I committed to his private tour immediately. On arrival, he handled my culture shock and high altitude issues far more promisingly than I originally expected. I got the medication in no time and we adjusted many times the itinerary to suit my current state then. As I also travelled to Eastern Tibet, we made lots of changes to the itinerary. Tenzin was extremely patient. I wanted to visit places basically only Buddhist practitioners go, as I was about to take refuge in Tibetan Buddhism. He took me to sacred places in all 4 major lineages and I could literally feel the blessing in my crown chakra during those visits. He also satisfied my mundane shopping desire to get good mala, incense sticks, and other traditional items. I love the fact that he would counter my desires in terms of choosing places to visit and he would justify his route/suggestions with practical reasons (budget, safety, time, worthiness to a tourist/Buddhist, the possibility that I might not visit Tibet ever again). It is a real discussion and consensus. Mt. Everest in winter was real tough for me and he made it possible despite my health conditions. Hotels and guest houses were a challenge to me given my European predilection. But Tenzin adjusted and changed them for me still. When environment was not up to my standard, he would go all his way to find the hotel people to fix them and he made himself available even late at night. I love the market for locals, not tourists, as I could buy clothes and accessories I really like. He promised me to find out more about the bookshops next time I visit, as there is a real good chain bookshop in town. I really want to visit again despite all the harshness in getting there and the toughness in conquering high altitude. He even got me health supplements to take home. He can be a good friend without losing the professionalism of the service part. One suggestion though - if Tenzin could learn portrait photography, he would make a perfect tour guide, as I was travelling alone and didn't want to take selfies and I have real high expectation of the outcome of the visuals. But this is not a complain, just my wishful thinking. He did a very thorough explanation of local customs and history of religion during the whole trip. This is not an ordinary trip for me. It was very difficult because of the weather and geographical condition and the food but Tenzin and the driver both made it nice. One more thing, Tenzin doesn't waste time beating around the bush. His communication is quite Americanized in that regard and it fits my education history perfectly. I am glad that we still keep in touch and he would do prayers for my well being. I really don't know what more one can ask for from a guide like this. Thank you Tenzin!

Dear Friend Anthony, Thank you so much for taking your precious time and writing this amazingly heart touching review. Thank you so much for trusting me from the beginning of the trip to the end of the trip. It was a great time even for myself being your tour Guide and traveling with you in Tibet for more than 10 days. Since your kindness of trusting me in the whole trip made the time of trip went so fast. Even Driver said to me that you are a very kind person. We both have a great time to service for you. One of the happiest thing for me is to share my broken Buddhism Knowledge with you, which you have taken so serious and listen to them so carefully even though I am also a beginner. I would like to thank you so much for that. I pray you will meet a teacher like Buddha and may your Tibetan Buddhism path becomes wider and smoother every day. It is a great pleasure to meet such a nice person like you, Your kindness will definitely bring you lots of happiness. I will be very glad to pray for your health and happiness and most importantly your success. May all obstacles be washed away and May all success be with you with the compassion of Buddha. Om Ma Ni Pad Me Hum I will be waiting for you in Tibet when time allows you to travel, at that time I will improve my photo skill and also the service and will show you many book shops by doing research in advance. Thank you so much, my dear friend, ​Anthony, Please keep in touch and please pray to Maha Guru Rinpoche. Thank you very much, Tenzin Dhondup

We have just returned from an amazing week in Lhasa and I can only say that one has to experience first hand all that Tibet has to offer. Tenzin and his team are the key to this. They were knowledgeable, prompt, efficient, flexible and no special request was too much for this team. We were lucky to have Ms.Kalsang and Tenzin be our guides on separate occasions and it made our tours such an enriching experience, getting to know these lovely people. Tibet Travelers have given us some very special memories, we can't thank them enough! You don't look any further!

Absolutely smooth trip with a driver and a guide. We stayed two days in Lhasa with totally satisfiable accomodation and then other two days on our way to Nepalese border in Kyorong with very helpful, friendly and well informed guide. We were pleased by the amount of information about Tibet, its culture and history and the guide showed us everything what we wanted and he also answered all our askings. The last night in Old Tingri was really authentic and we enjoyed our stay in the nice rural inn.

The photos of Tibet are amazing I would love to go and it looks like the best way to see Tibet is with Tenzin from Tibet Travellers as your travel guide how wonderful it is we have the opportunity to just do it.
