“I met this very friendly and nice person Khonchok, while i was in Lete guesthouse in Xining, i dont speak any Chinese or Tibetan, this is my first trip to this part, and most of the people didnt understand English, so unless you dont speak Tibetan, my opinion is you need a good guide, i felt very natural, while talking to this guide, and felt that i can trust hes experience and share my plan to visit some monasteries and nomadic Tibetan families, understand how they live, talk to them a little bit and try to understand their culture, this time we went with a group of 8 people, 1st we arrived from Xining to Shakong monastery and then he placed us in one good hotel in Rebgong where we stayed one night (i will not mention the hotel name in order not to commercialize it, but there are quite few good places you can find in that area with not so high prices) after we visited one small Tibetan village called Gawu and stayed one night there, its on the top of the mountain and we took amazing photos, you can see all Rebgong from there, after that we started our trekking journey, we’ve witnessed beautiful mountains, amazing cliffs, sunsets were amazing, we seen bunch of nomadic Tibetan people on our way, one night we stayed Methutang, where we seen small beautiful river, and amazing grassland, the nature was simply amazing there, i felt very comfortable with this guide, he could speak pretty good English, Tibetan and Chinese, and he definitely knew what to show, and was a bit flexible, not like every guide you meet, meanwhile our journey he could translate for us a bit if we would like to say something to Tibetans and vice versa. I was pretty happy travelling with him and the group and had an amazing experience in Tibet. Make your own decision but definitely check him out as a good option for your journey.

“We met in Xining, there was a group going to Tibetan area, I decided to join to explore together with them, it was good opportunity, guide seemed nice, trustworthy, spoke English pretty well, we went Repkong (Tongren) stayed there for 3 days, city is quiet, not much things happening, It has few main temples there, Labrang and Shachong we wisited Labrang and checked it nicely, another one briefly but it was ok, no one rushed it was ok, mutual decision, we all felt fine and relaxed. The food is pretty much almost like in China, nice Muslim restaurants, not everybody understands Chinese though, Repkong (Tongren) is also famous with selling caterpillar fungus, Buddhist accessories, other souvenires, they sell some stones there, too, theres one cheap clothes market where you can buy some things for basic needs some bags or slippers tshirts, etc. , Then we went trekking for another 2 days in the mountains nearby, great feelings, great sights of nature to see, Tibetan peopled seem very friendly, and warm welcoming us. I was pretty much very satisfied with this 6 days trip. Nme of our guide in Konchok. Have a great time in Tibet”

“You did an excellent job of arranging everything. I do not feel that your work or the tour could have been any better. We were pleased with the various tours, the vehicle transfers, and the hotel. It was one of the best experiences I have yet to have. Our guide, Jamyang , did a fantastic job educating us about the local culture”

“My wife and I recently traveled with for 6 days. It was the most amazing portion of our 3 week trip. Norbu from Tibet ManadaTours is the most sincere, considerate, and knowledgeable guide that we had the pleasure of meeting. If you are looking for a dependable and honest person/Tibetan guide, you can feel totally confident in Norbu. For example, our only contact prior to meeting Norbu in Repkong was by email. He did not know me at all. Yet there he was, waiting for us at the airport, with a driver and car. He had traveled 5 hours, hired a driver , totally trusting that we would show up. Norbu took us to sites, restaurants and locales that not many tourists see. As he say ..’’I want you to see the real Tibet’’ He lived up to those words in every respect. Thank you for your great help!”

“7 days group tour to Trek outside Repkong to Amnye Shachong Mountain Our operator Dolma responses to our mails were extremely fast, friendly and helpful. We could not expect it any better! For the arrangement, in retrospect, maybe some more free time would have been nice. Apart from this, the arrangements were great, and individual changes were included readily”

“EXCELLENT SERVICE !!We had a tour to Qinghai three days ago, for 3 days with Jamyang and it was a great experience. He himself is a true traveler and thus make a great guide for us. He doesn’t hesitate to give us extra tours as long as time permits. With his wide relation, he also brought us in to his village and he helped orphan students (a place where not everyone can come in), as we are interested on studying Tibetan there. If you want to find a tour guide who’s very kind service oriented and always “on your side” he’s the guy we recommend.
Hey, Jam yang and Chief Manager. Thank you very much for an unforgettable tour. We really enjoyed every day of it! All the best wishes for your Mandala Tours and your futuer . We hope to stay in contact. If we ever come back to China, we wll definitely visit you. Greetings.
