Essential Tips of Tibet Tour – Environmental Protection

We have organized many tours in Tibet, and we have also found large numbers of rubbishes every year. That is horrible and distressing. More and more people come to Tibet as they are attracted by the clean air, blue sky, and relaxing plateau environment of this sacred land of the world. But if Tibet is full of rubbishes one day, it could not be different from other places on the earth anymore. It no longer shows the pure sceneries to us in the future. How disappointed it is.

We are doing our best to tell every guest to be with us to protect the amazing beautiful environment of Tibet, and we will do it all the time. While you are traveling in Tibet, please do us a favor to let your teammates know how important the natural environment to Tibet is, such as your driver and your guide. There are still many things we can do. For example, do not throw the plastic bags everywhere. Do not throw your batteries or cigarettes somewhere. Do not left your food, or rubbish on the way. Do not cut or fire the woods. Do not hurt any animals in Tibet. Do not steal the wild Tibetan medicines, or destroy the forests.

We assure that everyone who is passionate for traveling must love the nature so much. Why not keep it intact to let more people to share? Your generations may know that you are one of the powers of protecting Tibet.
