    Tibet was an impressive, sacred and religious place. It was a little bit remote and still filled with its ancient religious culture and custom. The whole area was so natural, a bit influence of modern touch. I love the whole schedule of the tour. It is a long tour in China but all were so excellent! Great tour, excellent tour guide, excellent tour bus, hotel and all the service were meet our expectation!

    Had a great time during the tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of everything we visited. We did explore countless amazing attractions, did see amazing nature landscapes as well as discover historical sites in each city of China. The tour was organized so well. 17 days in China was breathtaking! Quite satisfied with the service!
