The above private guided tour is tailored for you, your family or your friends exclusively. No other participants will be in your group. In other words, others will not join in your tour and you will not take part into any tours of others on our land services.

When you go to Lhasa, bring your sun block, sun glasses and hat. You will find the day time is very long, almost from 4:00 to 22:00. The sunshine is very strong and fierce. Protect your eyes and skin from being burned. Second thing is a thick jacket. Even you go in summer, you would feel some place is still very cold. Also the temperature difference during daytime and nighttime is very large. Thick jacket is needed when you wander around at night. Others you should bring is some small gifts for the children. They would love them very much even just one candy, you will get back more than just one candy.

Lhasa...is just magical. Actually we didn't really know what to expect but it is really something out of the ordinary. The main street, Beijing Road is full to the rim with fancy shops of every kind and you will find anything you need there. Tibetan culture and traditions are visible everywhere. Wherever you look at, your eyes will be met by surrounding mountains and tibetan wilderness like nothing else. You can see the tibetans in their traditional costumes. Their hair styles and accessories are really so unique and beautiful...

We visited the Jokhang Temple but since we were not religiously inclined, the temple and its history meant very little to us. However, it was amazing to witness the devotions of some of the pilgrims performing the body long kow-tows the entire day in return for better karmas. The Bakhor Street next to Jokhang Temple is Lhasa's oldest street with colorful Tibetan features and houses. You can get souvenirs from here but that requires a very good skill of bargaining.

Here are some places that you can do shopping in Chengdu.

There is a big antiquities market close to the Green Ram Taoist Temple in the western city. Lots of communist relics, old porcelain dishes, jewellery, calligraphy equipment and also some Tibetan stuff can be found here. Do remember to bargain hard to get a proper price.

At the gate of the panda base inner Chengdu city, all sort of plush pandas and other panda trinkets are sold here. It is quite popular and welcomed by young girls.
