We got a full tour to Shanghai, Lhasa and other interest Tibet region. Loved the tour! It exactly same like what I expected before. A tour to Lhasa might a bit troublesome but that was challenging. Find different side of China, learnt and know about Tibetan culture. We did see a lot we have not seen before. Thank you for the arrangements. That was superb!

We thoroughly enjoyed this 8 day tour - both tour guides were well organized and made the day interesting for the group. See lots more than my expectation before. We had a short trip to each famous tourism city include Shanghai, Lhasa and Shigatse. Did not believe if Lhasa and Shigatse are also in China, the buildings and atmosphere was just like some places far out from China.
