In the remote highlands of Tibet, we came face to face with one of the rarest and most expensive dogs in the world — the Tibetan Mastiff, valued at over $1,000,000. Join us as we drive through forbidden Tibet on a private journey, far away from the big tour groups, exploring untouched villages, breathtaking landscapes at nearly 5,000 meters elevation, and meeting incredible locals along the way. From giant mastiffs to hidden rivers and the raw beauty of rural Tibet, this adventure showed us a side of Tibet few ever get to see. If you’ve ever wondered what life is really like in the most mysterious part of the Himalayas — this video is for you.
