“”Es un viaje maravilloso, nuestro guía Jah es un buen ciclista y se aseguró de que tuviéramos un viaje seguro. Todos los hoteles estaban limpios y eran cómodos. El viaje transcurrió a buen ritmo y teníamos suficientes días de descanso para visitar algunos de los lugares más famosos. Calificaré este viaje como un viaje de cinco estrellas.”

"It has been a long time we dreamed to visit China. We had this opportunity to join a trip to China that was co organized by RideChina and Asian Motorcycle Adventures. Both the road captain and local ride did a good job to provide a safe and enjoyable journey. This was not an easy ride because China is massive and we had travelled through some very remote places, there are too many things to see in China. We were very happy for what we have done and thanks to the team for such a great trip in China. We look forward to doing another trip in Tibet with the same company again."
