Dear Tom
We have had beautiful and unforgettable trip to Lhasa and Shigatse. Thank you very much and want to say that everything was well organized. I want to come to Tibet once again with my family or with friends once again. And maybe not once...
I should say Tibet is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. The whole experience has left our group flabbergasted! It's not just the location but also the people there are so friendly and open!
Of the 7 days that we spent in Tibet, our visit to the Potala Palace was our number 1 highlight. The walk up the stairs from the entrance of the palace to the main palace itself was not as difficult as I would have imagined. We found the place fascinating, what with its various statues, death stupas (where they have the bodies of previous Dalai Lamas and other important people), candles burning yak butter, murals, and many other amazing artifacts.
The most exciting moment of your tour is the travel near the Mount Everest Base Camp. The Everest region really is like nowhere else on earth. The ultimate peace and quiet (just the gentle tinkling of yak bells along the path), astounding views, wonderful people. I may be back in London but my heart remains in the Khumbu.
As a testimonial, we would say that many of our countrymen expressed surprise that we were booking with a company unknown to us and them. I felt from the first emails, that China Travel Depot was professional and responsive and the right choice for our trip. Your service was seamless and we experienced all the sites that we would have chosen on our own. I am sure we have been exposed to knowledge and places that we would have missed otherwise. Our experience proved that to be the case throughout our visit to China. We loved every bit of it and we were thrilled to have visited your country, observed its best known cities and its people. We have been spreading the word and would recommend you to anyone planning a trip to China.
Sincerely,
