An unforgettable and wonderful trip! I met Master Ye (87256) and the three words to describe our time together are "professional, considerate, and responsible". He also managed the time at each attraction very well. The trip ended perfectly and I must give him a full score!
Qinghai is absolutely worth visiting even in the off-season!!! A very satisfying trip! From hotel pick-up and drop-off on the first day to being taken to Xining Railway Station, the whole process went smoothly. The views from the top of Lajishan and Riyue Mountain are spectacular. It was snowing when we went to Riyue Mountain, and taking photos with lambs under the prayer flags felt like being in a movie. The driver was also very helpful, explaining how to take photos of the prayer flags with my phone – so professional!!! When we arrived at the outskirts of Qinghai Lake, the driver took some aerial photos for us with a drone – absolutely stunning!!! He even reminded us that buying tickets on Ctrip was more cost-effective before we went in the next day. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Qinghai Lake is truly beautiful, and the weather was perfect – blue skies, white clouds, snow-capped mountains, and Qinghai itself looked like a painting. The only downside was the strong wind! Chaka Salt Lake was also incredibly photogenic! Although some lakes had dried up, the snow-white salt flats were incredibly pristine, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds like a mirror. Throughout the journey, I could connect to Bluetooth and play music, making it a truly relaxing and comfortable road trip experience. When we returned to Xining station, the driver even helped me with my luggage to the car to the airport – so thoughtful! In short, it was a beautiful trip with friendly fellow travelers and a very considerate driver! Highly recommended!
