Dear Emma Lu and all at Travel China Guide,
I am sending you my impressions of Hong Kong, Tibet and Nepal trip. The time spent in Hong Kong was very nicely organized and Alex was a good professional Guide. I will Email you pictures from different places along the trip. The stop in Guangzhou and Chengdu was pleasant and the Guide in Guangzhou was very good.
At the arrival in Lhasa we met the Guide Mr. Penpa Tsring and the driver Mr. Zhang Peng. In Tsetang we visited the Samye Monastery and Yumbu Lakang which were very well selected. Lasha was a very nice place with Potala Palace and the Jokhang Temple. The trip through out Tibet was very interesting and fascinating. Lake Namtso and the landscape of Grassland were beautiful. We were very disappointed we could not visit the Snake River. Shigase, Shegar, Dingri were a wonderful experience by meeting very nice friendly local people and viziting the old beautiful Monasteries in that area.
The trip to the Everest Camp Base and the visit of Rongbuk Monastery was one of the highlights of our trip. We were very pleased with the itinerary selected. We like to specially mention the Guide Mr. Penpa Tsring and the driver Mr. Zhang Peng for the following:
-The Guide Mr. Penpa Tsring for the help he provided us in a professional manner in guiding the trip, explaining, knowledge in history, geography, religion. His english language was very good.
-The Driver Mr. Zhang Peng for the help provided in transportation and accommodating our needs. They did a very good job for both of us. We strongly recommend them for future trips.
If possible send us their address so we can send them the pictures that we took together during the trip.
Our guide and driver transfer us in Zhangmu to the Guide in Nepal. The itinerary in Nepal was very well selected. In Katmandu the hotel was very good. The trip in the Country side to Temple Tiger and Pokhara were very interesting. We were very dissapointed because the 4 wheel drive Jeep ( we paid extra money for it) and it is a "must" for the type of bad roads they have, broke down. We had to wait in a dusty dangerous road in the middle of the heavy traffic for four hours until they sent another car to get back us to the hotel.
Over all this China trip was very nice and we want to thank you and all at Travel China Guide for all services provided. We will consider and recommend you for future trips.
Best wishes,
Dr. Nicoll and Michelle
