I have arrived home safe and sound and wanted to let you know that we had a FANTASTIC time in Tibet, even though one of the ladies got ill. Darhyge was amazing, so knowledgeable, thoughtful and caring.I would definitely recommend him as a guide to anyone traveling to Tibet. Thank you for arranging this holiday for me, I really enjoyed visiting Potala Palace, Yamdrok Lake and learning about the different people and places that make up this huge country that I live in. Thank-you also for your kind gift on my birthday, it was really thoughtful.
Have a wonderful day.

a 6-day/5-night Lhasa Shigatse group tour with Great Tibet Tour in September 2019. There are three times group airport pickup and drop off included. It is about a 1-hour journey from the airport to the central city.
I stayed at the Shangbala Hotel in Lhasa. Many of the clients in the Shangbala Hotel were foreign. I enjoyed breakfast at the Shangbala Hotel. Every morning, my guide
will meet us at the hotel hall around 9:30 am. So I can enjoy a good sleep.
The tour guide and driver were both Tibetan. They will talk about Tibetan history and their lifestyle with us.
I felt relaxed during my trip. I will recommend this Tour to my friends and family who would like to travel to Tibet.

I am back home now. Thank you for helping me achieve my dream. Tibet is an amazing place. I left my heart in Tibet. I will definitely travel to Tibet again to find my heart in the future.
I am very pleased with the trip. On the way to Shigatse, we saw the real Yark and Tent beside the road. We go to visit the local people here to learn their real life. It really impressed me.
Please convey my thank to my guide and driver. They did an excellent job.
