Dear Lesley,
Our trip is coming to an end and I would like to thank you, for your full support, from the very beginning. We had a very good time in XinJiang, the trip was fantastic. Let me comment a few things, I hope it can serve as a base for you to provide even better experiences to foreigners in the future:
1. guide service
Abdul was really good. He showed good knowledge about the region, kindness, respect. We learn a lot from him. He managed to optimize the itinerary and adjust to our needs.
Rocky is a great person, extremely kind and polite, we enjoyed the time we spent with him. In the other hand, we felt that Rocky was less familiar with the itinerary, less knowledgeable about the history, and less good with time management. Still he gave us full support and adapted to all our requests, he did his best, with time he understood us better and suggested very good activities
Victor was also very kind and attentive both nights he came to assist
2. drivers and cars
Zhang ShiFu, north part driver was amazing. Not only a very good driver but also a great person. We appreciated him a lot. Kashgar driver was also a very good driver.
3. itinerary
Tashkurgan, we wished we could have visited some spots along the road, but many places were not registered in our itinerary, which made things complicated. The best example is Taheman village, which is just by the road. Abdul stoped there for a few minutes, but we were all stressed as we did not have the papers, and could not truly visited. I would suggest to add these points to new itineraries, making the road trip more interesting.
Actually we realized that we spent a lot of time in the road, much more than what was indicated in the itinerary, we would suggest to review that for next trips
4. Hotels:
Some hotels were simple but still clean, no problems with that
Urumqi: Wanda vista is much better than Hilton, better location, better rooms. I am not sure you should keep using Hilton.
Hemu: very good hotel, we loved, even if it was not down the main village, restaurant food was good and the rooms charming and comfortable, one of the best.
There are also a very few details that could have been corrected, nothing really important, but that could have showed a special attention: we mentioned we would prefer to stay in connected rooms, it seems it was possible in Radisson in Kashgar, but I am not sure they got the information so finally rooms were apart.
5. Food
The guides adapted quickly to our needs and understood what we were looking for, we ate very good!
We were very happy you accepted to take us to the restaurants we have suggested in Urumqi. We suggest you to add these recommendations to your future itineraries
6. Support
Thank you very much for always being there! You were very professional in all the moments, very attentive and reactive.
Overall, the trip was really amazing.
The information above should only serve for continuous optimization.
I would be more than happy to organize my next trip with you.
I will strongly recommend your services to my friends and colleagues.
All the best,
And a very sincere thank you.
