Month: November 2010

Being very cautious with Internet bookings our decision process to book either a local company with only a view testimonials versus what seemed to be a big travel agency covering the whole of China took a long time.
We have called Imam several times and to exchanged our thoughts on a possible schedule for a week in Xinjiang following old silk road ways before we have been confident enough to book our trip with him.

We have to say it was the best decision to do so. Imam and Abdul(kaiyum) made our trip a real tailor made adventure. We refined the schedule according our interests and their experience on the fly making the whole week very flexible.

The definite highlights of our trip have been desert night kebab with Abdul in the Taklamakan and the Tuesday market close to Hotan.

Thanks Imam and Abdul for your hospitality and your guidance through beautiful Central Asia.

Anyone who reads this can give me an Email or a ring if you need more confidence to book with Imam and Abdul.
Best Regards
Daniela and Uwe from Austria/Shanghai

We all live in Shanghai and had a lot of traveling experiences in China. We had a certain expectation about the beautiful landscape of Xinjiang. But Kashgar with Imam and Abdul still gave us a good surprise! It’s a delight to have Abdul took care of everything along the way. They are professional and knowledgable. Highly recommend for their wonderful service!

Hi Imam,
Concerning our comments on the trip, please find below few. If you need pictures or more info’s, please do not hesitate to contact me back!

We loved the people and the global atmosphere. All our guide were very professional and kind with us.
We may be found out a bit lack of cohesion between each things we saw… Maybe because of the short time, but I do regret to not have spent more time on the “red sand valley” nearby the tree forest on the way back to Kashgar. Gorgeous landscape! Maybe for us also a bit too much drive and not enough hiking ( maybe my mistake ? )
We loved so much our 3 days trip around karakul lake, instead to came back every time to Kashgar. The arch was great, even under the snow and the cold!!
I assume our profile is a part of this exigent French tourist range, but besides these small honest details ( in order to improve your services range ? ) we really loved our trip and we thank you a lot for all your efforts for having a sweet moment in your country.
You are a very serviceable tour supplier and we appreciated a lot your kindness.

I’m already advising your company to my friend in Shanghai :).

Thanks again
Have a good day,
Best,
Adrien
