7-Day Lhasa, Nyingchi, and Bome Tour

Experience the Mysteries and Vitality of Tibet

For travelers who would like to immerse themselves in the unique culture of Tibet and discover its natural beauty, taking an adventure to the west after visiting Lhasa for the desert-like plateau landscape and the roof of the world is not the only option. Eastern Tibet with its beautiful lakes, vast forests, and snow-capped mountains could overturn your imaginings about Tibet.

If you would like to mix cultural experiences and nature discovery without long trudges and basic accommodations on your Tibet tour, this 7-day Lhasa, Nyingchi, and Bome tour is the best choice for you to experience the mysteries and vitality of Tibet.

Tour 'Wow' Points

Pilgrimage to the Palace That's 'Closest to Heaven'

Immerse yourself in the exquisite chambers on the Potala Palace. Discover the secrets of building this amazing palace.

Walk a Local Tibetan Kora (Religious Circuit) on Barkhor Street

Have a city walk to experience the lifestyle and the spiritual world of local Tibetans. And then try a cup of butter tea in a nunnery that is less visited by ordinary tourists.

Watch the Exciting Debates between Monks at Sera Monastery

Catch a unique study activity of the Tibetan monks with a timely visit. This is unlikely to be seen in other monasteries.

Witness the Most Beautiful Snow Mountain in China

Stop at a platform for a magnificent view of Nnamjagbarwa Mountain. Its main peak is more than 7,700 meters (25,000 ft) above sea level. Hang a prayer flag and make a wish toward the holy mountain if you like.

Walk in a Fairyland of White and Pink (for tours in April)

Discover eastern Tibet, which might be totally different to your impressions of western Tibet. Snowy mountains and peach blossoms present a deceptively tender and soft Tibet in spring.

Have a Moderate Hike to See the Biggest Glacier in Tibet (for tours in winter)

Explore a holy lake, which is usually overlooked by travelers driving along Tibet's most beautiful highway. Marvel at blue ice on the third largest glacier in the world.

Taste Tibetan Snacks in a Local Family's House

Visit a local Tibetan family's house to experience the Tibetan lifestyle on a plateau pasture. Enjoy some homemade Tibetan snacks and a friendly conversation.

Once in a lifetime Once in a lifetime Lhasa und Tibet besichtigen! Unsere Führerin Tseyang war spitze. Sie spricht ausgezeichnetes Englisch und kennt ihr Land sehr gut.

Great experience immersing in Tibetan culture We did a 7 day tour of Tibet with China Highlights. The guide was Phurbu. He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We are repeat customers of this travel agency because they deliver a high quality tour with enormous flexibility. From the beginning they helped us getting the necessary permits. The quality of the sites we visited was amazing and we always had ample time to enjoy. We had a major setback as the government closed the access to the Everest area so our tour had to be rerouted. We were initially disappointed but we ended up visiting lake Namso and that was incredible. The agency offered a dinner in compensation even as it wasn’t their fault Phurbu introduced us patiently to his culture and to the Tibetan gastronomy. We had lunch and breakfast in around 10 typical places and the quality was always good. more Jan 2025, Raul C
