The father and son have a wonderful journey to Tibet with us in late September, 2008
Hi Fisher.......it's nice to hear from you again!
Our trip to Tibet was wonderful. We came back to Shanghai last Friday and I left for Bangkok on Tuesday......that's where I am now, for some business meetings.
Guide: she was excellent! Very knowledgeable, gracious, and accommodating. We really liked her a lot and would definitely recommend Tibetan guides for your travelers, as they are naturally much more knowledgeable about Tibetan history, culture, and religion.
Driver and car: The driver and car were fine. It was a Toyota Land Cruiser. We changed the itinerary for the 2nd and 3rd days so we could take day trips outside of Lhasa. We visited Ganden Monastery and Drak Yerpa Hermitage the 2nd day, and Yamdrok Tso Lake the 3rd day. These were all very scenic and interesting places which we were glad to have visited.
Hotel: The hotel was fine. Very comfortable for the 2 of us, everything worked, and the location was excellent, just around the corner from Barkhor Square, which was very good. There is also an excellent cafe right next to the hotel which sells coffee and pastries and ice cream and has good internet access. It's called the Summit Cafe.
Meals: all good. We ate breakfast at the hotel and our guide took us to a different place for lunch each day.
So in short, we had a great time. I really appreciate the service you provided and your consistent responsiveness and flexibility. I will certainly recommend your company to friends onsidering a trip to Tibet.
Thanks again for all your help!
