Tibet Festival Tours

Wow, what an incredible journey with Tibet Horizon! As an avid trekker who has traveled to many places, this 16-day Tour was a dream come true.

I can’t forget the night spending on the Everest Base Camp. The sheer majesty of Mt. Everest under the starry sky was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. It was also amazing to visit the Potala Palace and feel the spiritual energy of this historical site. Joining the pilgrims for the 4-day kora around Mt. Kailash was deeply moving and gave me a profound sense of peace and accomplishment. The stunning views of the sacred lakes were breathtaking, and I felt so connected to the nature and culture of Tibet.

Another thing worthy mentioning is that the service from Tibet Horizon was top-notch. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, always ready to share fascinating insights about the local traditions and history. The accommodations were comfortable, even at the high altitudes. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an adventure that touches the soul!

I’ve traveled extensively on a slow path to explore local customs, history, and culture. I decided to travel to Tibet and I wanted to explore Tibetan culture as well, so I chose this Shoton Festival limited tour with Tibet Horizon. It was amazing as I witnessed the opening of Buddha unfolding at Drepung Monastery and ate yogurt served with Tibetan barley cake. This trip covered Yamdrok and Namtso, two sacred lakes with their legends, allowing me to enjoy the breathtaking views of clean waters and snowy mountains while hearing stories from our guide. By the way, our guide is knowledgeable. He shared many local tales and customs with us. I’m glad that I chose this trip with TH because they planned the itinerary very well. The enriching and hassle-free trip was exactly what I preferred!

This 8-day tour in Tibet is really incredible and unforgettable. The organization of this tour has been perfect, me and my husband were very lucky to join a group with other 3 group members. Our group members are all very kind. We chose this trip to Nyingchi during the Peach Blossom Festival because we saw beautiful pictures of flowers on the Internet. When we saw the real scene, the beauty didn’t let us down! It’s a truly fairyland in pink color. We really appreciate the seamless arrangements made by our consultant and her team. They helped us apply for all the documents needed. Our tour guide impressed us for his abundant knowledge of Tibetan history and religion. He kept us accompanied and offered timely assistance throughout the journey. All in all, thank you for your hearty services!

My trip to Tibet was absolutely magical! This was my first time visiting Tibet, and the 16-day tour exceeded all my expectations. The Potala Palace in Lhasa was a standout—walking through its ancient halls filled me with awe and a sense of history. Staying overnight at EBC was another unforgettable experience. Watching the sun set and rise over Mt. Everest was surreal!

The part that touched me the most was participating in the Saga Dawa Festival and the kora around Mt. Kailash. I loved joining the local pilgrims and learning about their customs and beliefs. It was a spiritual journey as much as it was a physical one.

Tibet Horizon made everything seamless and enjoyable. Our guide was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, and the entire team took great care of us, ensuring we were well-acclimatized and comfortable. I particularly appreciated their attention to detail and the effort they put into making this trip a unique experience.

Choosing to visit Tibet during the Saga Dawa Festival was one of the best decisions I made. The 15-days was filled with surprises and awe-inspiring moments. The festival at Mt. Kailash was a unique cultural experience, bringing together pilgrims from all over. Witnessing the sunrise and sunset at Everest Base Camp was a lifetime experience, and the 3-day kora around Mount Kailash was both challenging and spiritually rewarding.

Throughout the journey, the service provided by Tibet Horizon was outstanding. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and always ready to share insights about the places we visited. The accommodations were comfortable, and the meals were delicious and varied, allowing us to enjoy the local cuisine. The trip was well-organized, and every detail was taken care of, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.

These fifteen days were packed with incredible sights and unforgettable experiences. Although the journey was challenging at times, it was immensely rewarding. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking a deep and enriching experience of Tibet. Thank you, Tibet Horizon, for an amazing adventure!

From the moment we met, it was clear that our guide was dedicated and passionate about his work. When he helped us during the challenging kora around Mount Kailash, he was extremely attentive to everyone’s needs, ensuring we were all well-prepared and motivated to complete the pilgrimage.

The Potala Palace, with its grand architecture and deep history, left us in awe. At Yamdrok Lake, we were captivated by the crystal-clear blue waters surrounded by majestic mountains. Namtso Lake was equally stunning, with its serene beauty providing a perfect backdrop for reflection and peace. However, the most unforgettable moment of our trip lies in the Saga Dawa Festival. The vibrant atmosphere, filled with colorful flags and chants, was mesmerizing. Witnessing the devotion of the pilgrims and participating in the traditional Tibetan opera at Drepung Monastery was a deeply spiritual experience that enriched our understanding of Tibetan culture and spirituality. None of this would have been possible without the help of our guide.

Tibet Horizon's attention to detail and excellent service made this trip truly unforgettable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Tibet's cultural and natural beauty.

This Tibet trip with Lhasa Everest and sacred lakes is wonderful! We’re lucky to be able to travel there during Shoton Festival, one of the biggest traditional festivals celebrated in Tibet. We watched a giant Thangka unveiling at an ancient Monastery and many pilgrims worshipping and presenting Hadas. There were many locals selling homemade yogurt and singing and dancing. We’re happy to experience this grand celebration and saw rich activities. The views of Everest and Namtso are also mind-blowing. The entire trip was perfectly arranged by Tibet Horizon. They helped us apply for permits needed and book flight tickets to Lhasa. Our consultant and guide are both professional and kind. Thank you Tibet Horizon!

Our guide during the 10 days Tibet tour was exceptional. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and always attentive to our needs. When he arranged an impromptu visit to a local Tibetan opera performance during the Shoton Festival, enhancing our cultural experience.

Under his guidance, we visited the Potala Palace, witnessed the scripture-debating at Sera Monastery, and marveled at the beauty of Yamdrok and Namtso Lakes. The highlight, of course, was the Everest Base Camp, where we enjoyed spectacular sunrises and sunsets.

After spending one day to acclimatize to high attitude in Lhasa, we visited the historic Potala Palace and witnessed the scripture-debating at Sera at the second day, in which the grandeur of Potala Palace and the spirited debates at Sera left us deeply impressed.

On the third day, we visited a local family to celebrate the Tibetan New Year. We spent the day learning to make traditional Tibetan food and milk tea, and engaging in festive activities. The family was incredibly warm and welcoming, sharing their customs and making us feel like part of their celebrations. This immersive experience provided deep insights into Tibetan culture, far beyond what casual sightseeing could offer. Our guide was exceptional, always attentive and helpful. At one point, I had difficulty adjusting to the high altitude, and the guide promptly provided me with oxygen and stayed with me until I felt better. His dedication and care were truly commendable.

we were very satisfied with the entire experience. Although the tour was short, it was filled with precious memories. We hope to return and explore more of Tibet’s cultural and natural beauty in the future.

Wonderful trip during the Nyingchi Peach Blossom Festival! My friend and I were able to travel to Tibet in early April but didn’t know which routes to take Our consultant from Tibet Horizon kindly recommended this small group tour package for us. She said we’re lucky to catch the peach blossom period. And indeed, we’re so lucky to have a chance to appreciate such beautiful landscapes with clusters of pink blossoms decorating the valleys and villages. This trip also took us to Lhasa and Shigatse, where we gained a deeper understanding of unique Tibetan culture and learned more about Tibetan Buddhism. This journey was truly enjoyable! Once again, a big thank to our contact girl. She’s very patient and helped us in obtaining our Tibet Travel Permit and other documents. Our guide is very nice, too. I strongly recommend this tour with Tibet Horizon!

My wife and I joined this small group of six in Tibet in early April. It’s time when the peach blossoms are in full bloom. We’re lucky to view such a beautiful scene that the pick clusters dotted the valleys, fields, and villages. The view of Polata Palace is amazing, too! It’s a grand complex standing tall in the center of Tibet. We also had a chance to see the towering Mt. Everest and we took many photos there. All in all, it’s such an unforgettable journey. Thank you Tibet Horizon for arranging this perfect trip for us. Your professional team including friendly consultants to experienced guides and drivers did a wonderful job in ensuring our travel went smoothly.

I took this Tibet tour with my boyfriend. The peach blossoms in Nyingchi and Bomi were so beautiful that I thought I was in a wonderland. Our Lhasa tour impressed me because it allowed us to appreciate the exquisite cultural relics, murals, and statues in the temples and monasteries as well as explore Tibetan history and culture. Our journey to Mount Everest is one of the best memories of my lifetime! We’re lucky to catch the stunning sunset when the golden light cast on the highest peak. It’s a wonderful journey and I want to thank Tibet Horizon for giving me such an unforgettable birthday experience. Our tour guide Mr. Passang Norbu is knowledgable and funny. He treated us like close friends and always cared about our conditions. Given a chance, I’ll definitely go to Tibet again.
