The guide:
Detom has a very friendly and open-minded attitude towards clients and her knowledge about Tibet custom and traditions as well as Buddhist Geography and the monasteries and sights on the way is just fantastic. She never got tired giving answers to the many different (and sometimes may be even a little strange) questions a foreigner has when he is travelling to this country. She not only finished all the items of sightseeing but, moreover, was suggesting to make a stop in Garden on the way to Lhasa (which was not part of the program) when she realized that I was interested in seeing that place. At the same time she made it possible for me to see and experience a little more about the temple and monasteries in the Lhasa area which was beyond a standard program. She was always punctual, taking care about safety and personal belongings and she was experienced in all matters which concern a trip like this one. All in all, she has been a great guide giving me wonderful impression about this trip. The driver:
Although I cannot talk personally to the driver, Laba has been a very friendly person, too. His job has been a difficult one, and he did it very well, too. He was always driving carefully, avoiding any risky situations on the road and showed his experience in driving especially at places where there were road works and traffic jams. There has always been harmony between the driver and the guide and Laba also has been punctual all the time. Food and beverage:
Always very clean and tasty, in Lhasa as well as in the countryside. Vehicle:
A big Landcruiser , with more space than necessary, and no problem with the car on the road. Hotels:
Of a much higher standard than I expected.
