Because of the current situation with corona my mother and I unfortunately had to cancel the trip. We got our refund back. The contact was pleasant and the people of the company were very kind. Hopefully, my mother and I will be able to travel with Tibet Experience next year.

Tibet is great. Tibet is the most special country I have been so far. But Lobsang really made our stay the most special time of my 8 month travel through Asia.
He can arrange things on a very short notice and he is a really nice and energetic person to spend your time with, who does not only takes care of your trip but also of you.
He is really focused about what do YOU want to get out of the trip.
For example, I was backpacking with a friend, so everywhere he found for us the cheapest options (which doesn't say if you want something more luxury, you should not go here, you should definitely go here! - I'm just saying he tailors the trip very well to your wishes).
He arranges you a phone card, gives you an extra call when you are not feeling well, takes you to the real Tibetan restaurants or introduces you to a family member on the street.
He doesn't only takes you to the 'must see places' but also to the hidden gems of Lhasa.
Also he makes a lot of contact with random people on the streets, so you don't feel such a tourist but really can talk to the people and ask them questions, which is really great. He really puts in effort for you to get to know the Tibetans and their culture.
To conclude this review, it was my birthday in Tibet and he organized me a party, which was so so cool! I don't think I will ever have such an awesome birthday again. Lobsang, you're the best!

Tashi delek! Everything written here is totally true! We came in January with our two years old daughter. We thought it would be challenging for Lobsang to arrange, but everything went perfect! We felt same about sending $600,- to a guy we've never met, but from the moment we picked up our train tickets from Chengdu railwaystation, we knew we could trust him. And indeed... Lobsang arranged everything perfectly with so much care and attention to all of us. Lobsang offers so much more then just being a guide following the itinerary. Thank you so much for your patience, good care, interesting conversations and big smile. January is also a very nice period to visit Tibet; because of the snow the landscape looked amazing!
Highly recommended, professional and reliable tour agency. Lobsang is able to arrange everything; from traveling with a toddler to overland biketours.

We were lucky to book the trip through Tibet Experience Travel. The trip was well planned and went very smoothly. We have actually seen more than we expected. All this because of Lobsang. He has surprised us with local singing, event, visiting nomad's tent, hiking around monastery and talking to various locals. We have insisted on Tibetan food - visited best kitchen in town. Nothing was too difficult for Lobsang. His open personality made this trip very special and we have learned a lot of spiritual and historical facts of the tibetan region. If you are after more than pictures and you want to be part of the local crowd, give Tibet Experience Travel a go.

Just came back from Tibet 3 days ago. We engaged Tibet Experience Tour as our tour guide. Lobsang, the agent, was very helpful with all our documents, passes and permits prior to the tour, as most of the temples require entry fee for foreigners, Potala Palace needs to be booked in advanced. He also made sure to introduce us to local shops and businesses. Since food is my hobby, he took us to a family restaurant which was literally in their home (Tibetan Family Kitchen) where they cooked fresh pasta in front of us!. The agency was great with flexibility with venues and time and since in the group it was only my husband and I, we could ask to change schedule. We were taught many Tibetan customs, local tid-bits among great details about Tibetan history and religion which is so important to the people. We were taken one evening to a restaurant where we had an impromptu concert from the people working nearby :) Namtso lake was my favorite, spectacular views but unfortunately altitude (4500m) prevented us from staying there the night. I am very thankful to Lobsang who took us back to Lhasa the same day though it was a long drive but his advise saved us becoming sick. On the way back he asked the nomadic people if we could go in their tent! It was great experience and now I have a lovely Tibetan girl as pen pal :) If you are looking for local knowledge and experience, I highly recommend Tibet Experience Tour

I headed to Tibet on my own as a quick trip while working in Shanghai & so Mr Lobsang was the perfect guide for someone who had done zero prep. While I still remain amazed at how high we actually trekked, Lobsang did everything to get me up & over the mountain and around in Lhasa too. Great place and lovely people. Steve (Sydney)

Me and my girlfriend booked a trip with this agency and we have never regretted it! On the contrary, Lobsang, the guide, is absolutely superb and does everything to make the most of your trip to Tibet. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and speaks good English. Also he has good connections in the travel industry, which can be helpfull.
In Tibet its very important to have a good guide, it can make or break your trip. Its very important that he takes that extra step, and Lobsang does just that. And for a very sharp price!
This office is very reccomended for daytrips in Lhasa, but also for longer trips. I can reccomend you booking your trips here!

We are a group of four Belgian students and Lobsang arranged a 6-day tour for us filled with mesmerizing views and he enriched us with Tibetan culture. He made sure we were comfortable and gave a lot of information about the places we visited. He even bought one of us a cake for her birthday! To conclude, we definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to see Tibet in the most amazing way. Greetings, Sien, Luca, Jazz and Marie
