Reviews for Kathmandu to Lhasa overland tour, 9 days
Michael Pick review 17 May 2024
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
The late afternoon clear view of Mt Everest at Everest Base Camp was one of the highlights of this trip, though the stunning scenery along the road from Lhasa right through to Kathmandu has to be a close second.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
I'd recommend sitting back and enjoying the experience - everything is done for you. Bring small-denominational cash with you for China - no-one accepts credit cards and even 100RMB notes are too large for many places to accept for smaller purchases.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
We ate at local restaurants throughout and I felt as if our holiday was of benefit to local people as much as possible - this was important to me and I was pleased to see it in action.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Our guide was caring and personally attentive to every person on the tour. We always knew what was going on and instructions were always clearly articulated. Our guide was also very knowledgeable. Attention to detail throughout was meticulous - what I assume at times were complex arrangements for permits and timeframes were dealt with efficiently. A thoroughly enjoyable partnership throughout. Communication with travel agent staff was also noteworthy - always prompt and efficient responses to our many pre-departure questions! Very much appreciated.Holiday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
