"I just returned from my trip to Asia, the first couple weeks in China and the last two weeks in the Philippines. My 11-day tour of Beijing/Lhasa/Shigatse/Gyangtse/ Tsetang was excellent and I have no complaints. I particularly want to thank my guide and driver in Tibet--they were knowledgeable, courteous and professional. My only suggestion is to add/or offer a hike to the old fort in Gyangtse (I realize its am ambitious hike at that altitude but an oltimer (age 57) like me made it and many others might enjoy the hike and the view). It wasnt in my guidebook nor on the itinerary but my guide was agreeable to make the climb since we had time.
Thanks again for a well-organized tour of Tibets four largest cities.
When I complemented my guide and driver on their fine performance, professionalism and courtesy, I forgot to mention their names: Wangchuk and Do Ji."
