Biography
I'm Amber Zhang at Tibet Discovery, a lover of city breezes and global exploration, eager to share the journey with you.
Traveling is sometimes described as leaving our own mundane surroundings to explore someone else's. However, for me, it's an endless source of fascination. Having been to dozens of cities across three countries, with some even visited more than once, I've found that there's always something new to discover.
Tibet, in particular, holds boundless treasures. From the majestic Potala Palace to the awe-inspiring Mount Everest and the serene Namtso Lake, there are undoubtedly must-see sights. However, I also invite you to discover the lesser-known monasteries, connect with local Tibetan families, and immerse yourself in the authentic culture of the region. Simply share your interests with me, and I can customize private tours or provide cost-effective join-in tours to bring your Tibet dreams to life. Rest assured, every detail of your trip, including Tibet permits, transfers, accommodations, and tour guides, will be meticulously taken care of.
If it's your first time to Tibet, I recommend these tours to you:

Is independent tour allowed in Tibet?
In order to protect the centuries-old cultural relics, Tibetan fragile environment and respect the tradition of Tibetan people and considering the limited reception capacity in Tibet, all non-Chinese passport holders must travel Tibet with a licensed agency.
-
What documents do I need if I am planning to travel to Tibet?
First, you need to have a valid passport, and then apply for a valid Chinese visa for your travel to China. A Tibet Travel Permit (sometimes people call it Entry permit or TTB Permit) is needed for your Tibet tour. More visas or permits, like Aliens’ Travel Permit, Military Permit and Border Pass, Group Visa are also required if you want to visit more further regions outside Lhasa, Shigatse and Gyantse.

When is the best time to visit Tibet?
The scenery in Tibet varies with different seasons and different regions. Generally, it is suitable to travel to Tibet from April to October to visit different destinations in Tibet.
-
How to Avoid High Altitude Sickness?
Before visiting Tibet, you need to keep physically and mentally healthy. Taking a physical examination and consulting your doctor for advice are also important. It is also helpful to travel from lower altitudes to higher altitudes to acclimatize your body to the altitude gradually. During your journey in Tibet, remember to avoid strenuous activities and always walk at a slow pace and take deep breaths.
-
Is there any age limit for travelers to Tibet?
No. There is not any age limit for travelers who plan to visit Tibet. And it all depends on your physical condition. It will be dangerous to visit Tibet if you are suffering from heavy cold, severe anemia, high blood pressure, high blood pressure, heart disease or any other breathing diseases, because they may cause serious high altitude sickness.
-
What are the hotels like in Tibet?
Tourism in Tibet has developed a lot in recent years and hotel facilities and service have also greatly improved. Due to special location and geography, living standards in remote cities may not be as you expect from a hotel in other parts of the world. Hotels in small cities and the Everest Base Camp are very basic and simple. Usually you only have a public bathroom with a squat toilet to use.
