We want to visit Yunnan Province first (early May) and then fly to Lhasa from either Kunming or Lijiang. Then we would like to take trips around Lhasa and go west to Tingri and / or the Everest Basis Camp. Back in Lhasa we want to take the train to Xining and then fly back to Shanghai. One goal of our travel is to respect the people and the country we visit and not to leave any "tourist" traces. As we haven't been to China we are not familiar with the country and would appreciate any helpful advice. We have travelled extensively in South East Asia, but never with a guided tour. So Tibet will be our first guided tour. Normally we love to travel independently, but neither of us speaks Chinese or Tibetan - and travel in Tibet is only possible with a guide anyway. For the trip to Tibet we might be joined by another couple from the US, so that there would be four of us. Would you please inform us about your offers. Thank you - we hope to hear from you soon. Yours respectfully Gerhard and Gisela Wuttke Bogenstr. 35 93051 Regensburg Tel. 0049 941 999 277 gerhard.wuttke@web.de Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
