Tibet Highland Tours

Tibet Highland Tours is a Lhasa-based travel agency, notable as the first Tibetan woman-led operator in the region. The company runs the full range of Tibet itineraries including Everest expeditions, Mount Kailash treks, photography journeys, and a dedicated bird-watching tour focused on wetland and river species around Lhasa. The birding programme draws on Tibet's roughly 470 recorded species, with the majority found in Everest National Park, and visits sites such as the Lhasu wetland and the Kyichu River for cranes, geese, ducks, and high-altitude grebes. The operator handles permits and logistics for foreign birders visiting the autonomous region.
