I have a bathroom just now that's half height tiles above the bath. I am changing the bath and also fitting a shower mixer, bath will be switched around and shower mixer will go on the left wall.
So I am going to continue the tiling to the ceiling for the shower area in the bath.
Please see picture of the area and let me know where you would finish tiling.
I had thought just the left end and long wall but not sure how it would look.
The waste stack is in the corner.

I'd probably just do the shower wall and main wall but are you removing the existing tiling or continuing up from it? That would dictate some of it with how the existing trim work is. At the stack as it's overhanging you would need to do the return also.

Iirc those tiles are Johnsons, CTD sell them and they are called Autumn something, can't remember the full name. If they are the grey ones then they are called shadow something 🤷‍♂️

I agree , shower wall and long wall to ceiling.
the plastic tile trim can be cut out but if your leaving existing tiles on shower wall on , then you’ll have to piece the trim or remove those tiles and then you can trim in one piece.

Yep as @Dave says, multi tool will cut that pvc trim easy if you don't mind butting up some other white trim to any bits your are continuing from. I've done it quite a few times as all the new builds here are only coming with that tiling, I haven't found a match for their white trim though, just been using genesis.

Thanks all, I have the tiles they are from porcelanosa, I will cut the trim and continue it up and then cut off any old shorter bits and run new lengths to finish.
So would I just leave the trim that's on the half tile at the stack and then just finish long wall with Silicon above it?

full height all around bath if having a above head height shower especially as spray and steam will at the very least get on to all walls within the bath area.
