Dear Carol, It has already been a week since I have come back from Lhasa and I still have wonderful memories in my mind. I would like to thank you very much, also on behalf of my friends Henri and Derek, for the extremely good service of your company. The tour was very good and the guide Andy very nice, knowledgeable and helpful. he was able to accommodate all our needs very well and we felt that we were guided by a friend. The driver was also very competent and made us feel secure. Many many thanks again also for your kind support before the departure for answering all my questions with so much details and helping me in this new experience. I will certainly recommend your company. Should you wish me to write my feedback on any websites please let me know and I will do it with pleasure. With best regards, Alessandro Badino Spain

Hi Julia, Of course. My sister and I greatly enjoyed our trip and Tibet was one of the major highlights. Our guide was excellent. He took very good care of us and was very helpful that first day when we were getting acclimated to the altitude. He gave us some tips that made the transition a little easier. Lhasa was beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed interacting with the Tibetans. I would say to be prepared for the altitude adjustment. We both took some time to get used to it. The Potola palace is worth the 380 steps that you must climb to get to the top. Give yourself some time to get up all of the stairs. Since it is the first day we weren't really ready for the climb. But the view and the palace itself were beautiful. Of the other sites I would say the Sera monastery was with its lively debates of the monks was our second favorite. We did try the local food and my favorite was Shaptak made with Yak. It was excellent and I would highly recommend it. Overall our experience in Tibet was great. I would have liked to seen more of the countryside but I guess that just means another trip. If you are interested I did take some pictures which I have on my website. There are both pictures from Tibet and China. Thank you once again for organising such an interesting tour for us, the whole service was excellent and we look forward to using the company again when we next go to China. John Ball from USA

Dear Luis, First, I am sorry it has taken so long to respond as we came straight back to work and the computer network has been down during upgrade. All of the meals were EXCELLENT! We felt great at every restaurant and enjoyed both trying new things and enjoying the perfection of familiar dishes. All of our guides were very attentive and accommodating to our requests. Each one seemed to embrace their city with pride and we thoroughly enjoyed every one. We hope to keep in touch with all of them. Everyone knew their cities very well and had a wonderful sense of pride. The Potala Palace was a place I have long to go. It had its unique style and I loved the feeling of strange. Finally getting there was a dream come true. It looks fabulous and the historical pedigree is unmatched. The walk to the top is best done slowly - the air is very thin and the sun like a laser at that altitude Sincerely, Yvonne Pearson Jamaica

Hi tom, I want to thank you for the perfect organization of my tour. Everything has gone very well and this has been reached thanks to your personal commitment on the organization side. In Tibet, I experienced a lot, I climbed up to Potala Palace, the former political and religious center of Tibet as well as the landmark of Lhasa, I visited Tibetan Temples and got in touch with mysterious and exotic religious culture, also I enjoyed the purified scenery at Namtso, one of the Holy Lakes of Tibet…in a word, the trip benefit me so much!! I will always remember the trip - Thanks for helping create such wonderful memories. Take care, Steve Sri Lanka
