I can define our Tibet Monastery Tour with Tibet Holidays with only three words: fantastic, happy and much kindness. All this due to Pema Tsering, Ngawang (our guide) and Chungda (our driver). They did our trip excellently arranged, funny, very interesting and gave us the chance to get authentic experience with Tibetan language, traditions and culture. Tibet is, for sure, the best place I have ever visited.

Pema and entire crew of Tibet Holidays are simply great.. I did Kanchenjunga Base Camp trek in 2014 and Upper Mustang Trek in 2016. The guide was very manageable and proffessional. We enjoyed both trip very much. See you soon Pema. Keep it up your great job!

The trip that did in Humla in 2016 was my best trip. I stay in Pema’s home with she’s family and I met with this nice people. It was really special moments for me. Thanks to Pema for this opportunity. Also thanks to Pema for treating like a sister to me while im tripping. I hope we come across again my another trip.

Have just returned from my second tour with Tibet Holidays; last year's trip to Mt Kailash was very well arranged and managed, a comprehensive experience of Tibet, and this second trek into the Tsum Valley and Manaslu Circuit was equally well conducted, with many great experiences. Thanks Pema for all your kind and professional assistance.

Our group of six had an unforgettable, life changing experience on our trek through the high country of western Nepal and on into Tibet to Mount Kailash, western Tibet and Lhasa. Pema and his team of expert guides at Tibet Holidays navigated our way around every obstacle on both sides of the border, we would have been lost without them. Our wonderful cook and kitchen team provided excellent meals three times a day in the most remote and inhospitable locations. Wonderful trip, top quality and value, highly recommended.
