Any experience with China tour operators?

[Thomas_HH]

Hi guys, I need

i already got three quotes from tour operators for a trip through China - the most expensive and challenging one I guess from Torugart Pass - Xinjiang - Tibet - Yunnan and to Laos.

My gut hasn't made a decision yet which operator to choose as the prices are quite similar but tour descriptions, suggestions etc. are a bit different.

So my question is if there's anybody out there - and I know there must be - who has made experiences with
- Navo
- china Overland
- Mrs Spring

please let me know your experiences, challenges, good things, bad things with them or if you just would recommend one of them or even another company ... It's a lot of money to spend on as you know and I like to know more the hidden details as the obvious I already found out.

You can also pm and email me if you like to keep it private.
Thank you for any hint!

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

I am also planning (just started) to cross China on a motorbike, around May/August this year.

I am looking for a group to join or for people to create one.

What are you planning? Do you already have a group?

By the way, can you give me the contact of Miss Spring?

Thanks!

Agus

better if you can write me to: agusti.mila1@gmail.com (I have also sent you an email)

Hi there,

I'm interested in a similar trip.

Could you tell me how much the Chinese tour companies are charging you so I could have an idea.

Thanks a lot,

Kai
