China’s Outback at its best!
Some of the most remote parts of China, rarely visited by tourists, are part of a 29-day package visiting China and Tibet which is available from China specialist Wendy Wu Tours.
The company has tours leaving Australia on May 6 and August 26 and has two more departures planned for 2009. Travel for most of the tour is by 4WD and includes the ancient market town of Kashgar, Yecheng on the edge of the Taklimakan Desert and across the Aksai Chin Plateau on the way to the Mt Everest base camp, Lhasa in Tibet and a visit to the panda reseve at Chengdu.
Called “Epic Dreams”, the itinerary travels through remote areas but it is done in Wendy Wu tradition with a fully qualified national escort and or/English speaking local guides and the security which comes with travelling in organised groups.
The cost from $7980 includes return economy international air fares from Australia, all air and road transport during the tour, accommodation and all meals, daily sightseeing activities, a national tour escort and/or local guides as well as visas for Australian passport holders.
