    Great experience, Kathmandu and 8 day EBC tour from Lhasa!
    What a great experience, thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish, helped by the meticulous planning by Susan Lee in the office in Chengdu and by the hard work of our guide Lhak Pa. I visited Kathmandu and the office also organised the Mountain Flight passed Everest which was simply awesome, then a personal tour of several of the temples in Kathmandu and then some villages outside the city. This was then followed by the 8 day Base camp tour from Lhasa, with a really friendly group of 10 travellers, a fantastic time was had by all, and capped off by the two day train journey to Shanghai. Hotels were all good and the whole trip exceeded my expectations, so I can recommend the company, the organisation and the guide!

    Great trip, Daniel our guide was very knowledgeable about Tibetan culture and patiently answered our many questions. Good balance of activities - seeing Everest was undoubtably the highlight for me.

    Spiritual and Mind Blowing
    15 Days Kailash and Manasarova Small Group Tour - with the guide Jamyang Tsering and driver Donten. I was satisfied with pretty much everything. The bus was comfy, the driver responsible, the guide bent over backwards to satisfy everybody and to help people who got sick. Its not easy to get to Kailash because of the terrible roads and altitude but in the end its all worth it :).

    Kailash Trek and EBC
    The most fortunate and fascinating trip of my life! Guided by Jamyang Tsering from Tibet Vista. Starting for Drepung & Sera Monastery, Potata Palace, Kora @ Pentchant Lama’s Monastery In Shigate to EBC, Lake Manasarovar and Kailash Kora. Butter tea with Tibetian nomads and ginger coke for Altitude sickness and glaciers. Almost 2 weeks of memorable experience! Less is more. Tibet may not be fully developed (need better toilets :-p) but the experience is priceless! Thank you!

    Amazing two and a half weeks in Tibet
    Cannot say enough good about our guide, Jamyang Tsering, who was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about Tibetan culture and history. He was super personable and easy to spend our time with, polite and fun without being intrusive. Jamyang also he worked hard to accommodate our wishes and interests, and ensured experiences like being able to try local food. This company is also good in that it works with Tibetan guides, which is helpful for real insight into Tibetan culture. It was a lifetime experience.

    Mt Everest base camp tour
    It is a fantastic tour. The tour is well organized and our tour guide, Tenzin Jayang, is amazing. He is very knowledgeable and truely cares for each individual in our group. My son has altitude sickness in the first two days. He keeps inspire him, also provide medication. My son recovers very soon, so he enjoy the rest of the tour. After this, he said he would come back to Tibet again. We are very grateful for Tenzin's help.

    Travel to Tibet and treking the Himalayas with amazing tour guide Ga Rong
    We were extremely happy with Travel Vista and their services, especially our tour guide, Garong our driver, Dodji. We were extremely impressed with the knowledge, communications skills, professionalism, perfectionism, and willingness of our guide, Garong, to help us in all aspects of our journey, including helping accommodating our daughter's need for gluten free diet and encouraging our young boy, 8 years old, on a arduous 1-week trek on the Himalayas. Garong is the best guide we have ever come across and he deserves our highest recommendation!

    Because I've taken medecines according to advices of the doctor I haven't any problems with the altitude. Indeed in the first days I was moving slowly (the same advice our guide tour gave us) in the last days I could even to run. And seeng the Everest at sun set (with the help of the weather) was indeed very special.

    I'll recomend this tour to everyone who don't have special problems with the health.

    Me for example I have controled blood high tension but with the regular medecines I had no problems Doru Gheorghiescu. Less

    I should say its 10 out of 10, very nice excellent tour, all our permits/tickets/air/train/hotels/tents/everything was arranged in advance. Cindy our tour consultant was amazingly active and quite fast in arranging my travel. I had an excellent trip also who accompanied us with our Tour guide by the name Tsedon, she was amazing and fantastic, who had full knowledge of the Tibetian history and details of each and every visit which we made during the entire trip. Very friendly,helpful, and she attended to all our needs and made us really comfortable during the entire journey.More

I just felt so sad that the tour ended 7days, which we wished to be more...

    Anyways I am definitely will go for the other Tours in the near future with Tibet Vista., I had no regrets and hope to meet with the same Tour Guide Ms Tsedon. Thankyou Tibet Vista. Less

    Traveling to Tibet was a once-in-a-lifetime trip!

    Kristin was an amazing advisor for making my travel plans, and was very detail oriented and patient with any and all questions.

    My experience of Tibet was incredible--- on a spiritual, personal and intellectual level. I learned so many things from my guide Tenzin Leo. Right from the beginning he made me feel very comfortable and excited to embark on the adventure. His kind and happy demeanor set the tone for the trip and quickly helped our small group of five people feel at ease. I did not know anyone in my group before heading out and I will affirm that this experience is for everyone and do not be hesitant to sign up.More

    Mount Kailash 13 day tour
    An interesting tour of monasteries, local towns and an epic trek round Mt Kailash with an extremely good guide, Nawang Tenzin. The Tibetan people are really lovely with beautiful smiles and the land is the same.

    Beware the long bus journeys and 3 day trek which was difficult in terms of altitude.

    15 day tour to Everest Base Camp and Mt Kailash
    I cannot recommend it highly enough!

    Kristen liaised with plenty of information prior to the trip and warned about the road conditions, the toilets, lack of showers in places etc. I think all of these points are really important, and I appreciated being mentally prepared for all of these, as well as bringing wet wipes, prunes, toilet paper and a neck pillow. There are long days in the bus where natural toilets are way better options than manmade ones. I was very appreciative as my tour guide Pasang was always considerate of the fact I was the only female on the trip, and he was proactive in finding me a spot.More

There are long days in the bus where natural toilets are way better options than manmade ones. I was very appreciative as my tour guide Pasang was always considerate of the fact I was the only female on the trip, and he was proactive in finding me a spot.

    The tour was broken up with days traveling and monetary visits, time taken at the lake, Glacier and other various photo opportunities. Pasang gave us ample information to understand what was happening, what we were doing next and from the outset he called us friends and really meant it. He was very relaxed and approachable and managed to explain complex ideas in the monasteries etc in an easy to digest way, even for people with no prior knowledge. Pasang was awesome in that he kept tabs on everyone’s interest/energy levels and adapted his level of detail accordingly. He also provided coffee at break times on the journey which was a saviour to most on the bus each morning.

    The one thing I was a little nervous about prior to this trip was altitude sickness. What I really liked about this tour is that you gradually get higher and higher in altitude so it gives you a chance to adapt. You get a few days in Lhasa to become accustomed before getting more out and about. I think actually Pasang switched up the order of a nights accommodation to make it easier for us finding it harder to adjust. One thing I recommend that saved me and my afternoon/early morning headaches (once I had had plenty of water) was coke. Normally don’t drink the stuff but it really did help with my aggressive/persistent headaches. These are available most places so that was lucky. Pasang also had plenty of oxygen canisters available but I wasn’t feeling short of breath so didn’t use them.

    Highlights for this trip are definitely Everest Base Camp and Mt Kailash, plus a surprise Glacier on route. The driving days are long to get to Mt Kailash but 100% worth it. Our driver did such a great job. The roads are mostly sealed, but even so, he had to watch out/slow down for holes/uneven surfaces. Roads are being improved at the moment which meant we had to off-road for a whole section but our driver was confident throughout. Definitely bring a neck pillow, you get bounced around a fair bit which rocked quite a few people to sleep each day. You really start getting a feel for rural Tibet by taking the time to get that far west and the fact that basically everyone is hiking the Kailash Kora as part of a pilgrimage adds to the experience. We saw only one other group of non-Tibetans during the 2.5 day hike. Day one of the hike is a nice stroll, and a great way to get your body used to it all. Day two is a big day. Early start to tackle a pass which you keep thinking is almost in reach. The ground is rocky and I definitely recommend poles (which you can pick up for cheap in the town you begin the walk). The downhill part is quite steep and more loose dirt than the other side. After you have made it down that section you are welcomed to a tea house for lunch and then it is flat and chilled for the afternoon. Day three is a breeze although the body is pretty knackered by this stage. Definitely pack as light as possible! Water is available in all of the tea houses along the way so carrying a couple of small bottles at a time is fine. Food is instant noodles during the day, so you tend to get a bit done with them, but they are enough. Less

    Fantastic 8 day trip starting Tibet-Lhasa 3 days,5 days through Tibet to Mount Everest base camp and then on to Nepal's border. The whole trip was well planned by Tibet Vista, the guide was very knowledgeable and told us everything we needed / wanted to know about historical monuments and culture. There was plenty of time at all the different sights we were at, so no stress. All the hotels were of very good standard and good breakfast. We are super happy with our trip through Tibet, we will go home so much richer on everything.
