Tibet: Explore the Roof of the World

Tibet Tours - Prayer flags in the high Himalaya

World Discovery Tibet tours take you to one of the most remote destinations in the world, yet one which is rich in history and tradition. This vast barren country on 'the Roof of the World' has long held a fascination for western visitors seeking the elusive 'Shangri La' of legend.

Since 1950 Tibet has been incorporated into the People's Republic of China - a situation which many Tibetans, including the exiled spiritual leader, the Dalai Lama, find unacceptable - and there is a fear that that the unique culture of this ancient land will be eroded as a result.

Politics notwithstanding, Tibet is a spectacular land with a wealth of impressive temples and palaces, and numerous cultural treasures that will take your breath away. Combine a visit with neighbouring Nepal, itself strongly influenced by Tibetan culture, for a memorable Himalayan experience.
