Foreign tourists are understood to have been banned from the Tibet Autonomous Region following a series of self-immolations by Tibetans protesting against Chinese rule.
Several tour operators in China received notice to cancel group tours to Tibet with foreign visitors.
The CEO of Tibet Travel Expert -- who only provided her surname, Wang -- said the government stopped approving applications of foreign tourists on May 28.
Wang's understanding of the ban is it only applies to group tours that involve foreigners of different nationalities.
"This affected our business seriously," said Wang. "We will have to compensate more than 200 tourists who have already applied for the trip."
