UNIQUE TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
Discover a sanctuary at the roof of the world. Stay in an authentic Tibetan farmhouse, in Yunnan’s fabled Shangri-La Valley.
Many people have heard of the almost mythical valley of Shangri-La. But comparatively few have ever been there. You could stay in an authentic Tibetan farmhouse -refurbished to include modern refinements and luxuries – some 3,200 metres up in this remote valley.
It’s a unique travel experience that includes being pampered in a world class spa, with treatments that combine yoga, Chinese Tui Na and ancient Himalayan Gui Shi hot stone therapies. It’s a sensational way of feeling on top of the world, whilst staying on the roof of the world.

Planning my first solo trip felt like a big step, but The Ultimate Travel Company made it easy from the outset. I reached out over a year in advance, and Rob Kent quickly put together a thoughtful itinerary based on exactly what I was looking for, securing great flights and always being available to talk things through. Everything ran smoothly and I felt looked after every step of the way. The accommodation in Japan, Fiji and Tahiti was excellent and the experiences unforgettable.
We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
