"Free Travel in Southwest Guizhou" tells about my experience in chartered trains in Tibet, sichuan-tibet railway and Qinghai-Tibet Railway _ 1

The experience of chartered cars on Sichuan-Tibet and Qinghai-Tibet lines is really hard to forget. I hope our experience can help you arrange a better trip.

The Sichuan-Tibet line is suitable for road trip with beautiful scenery, and the best starting point is Chengdu. Local chartered cars are very popular, and there are many models to choose from. But in fact, this route is famous for its danger and great changes. If you don't have good driving skills and rich experience, you really don't recommend driving yourself.

In order to control the itinerary freely, we decided to charter a car to travel to Tibet, so we began to collect information about chartered cars three months before departure. It is planned to charter a car from Chengdu, Sichuan, take the Nanchuan Tibet Line 3 18, first to Daocheng Aden, and then to Lhasa along the way. After arriving in Lhasa, I traveled around Lhasa in the car of a local Tibetan driver, and then flew from Lhasa to Chengdu. I didn't think that I would go back to Chengdu with the Qinghai-Tibet line.

After a round of data collection, we finally contacted the charter company on the Sichuan-Tibet line through WeChat. When booking a chartered car, they first know our planned itinerary, and then give us the general itinerary and accommodation place as required. At the same time, I contacted two drivers in Lhasa, but when we needed to rent a car in Lhasa, they seemed to be just full. Alas ~ ~ I didn't get a piece of the action.

After communicating with the Sichuan-Tibet line charter company, they can move freely in Lhasa for three days during the whole charter period. What is more attractive is that each person can spend an extra 2240 RMB to travel to Qinghai and then take the Qinghai-Tibet Line back to Chengdu. This arrangement is really attractive, because it is known in the traffic planning that the one-way ticket from Lhasa to Chengdu costs nearly 2,000 yuan, and the most important thing is that the flights departing from Lhasa are delayed and extremely unstable. So more than 2000 people can take the Qinghai-Tibet line at the same time, and you can travel to Qinghai without worrying about flying. Compared with re-entering Tibet from the Qinghai-Tibet line, it saves a lot. The bigger consideration is that we don't know when we can take time to play the Qinghai-Tibet Line again, so this trip will add the Qinghai-Tibet Line to our itinerary.

The whole journey includes three bells and two Pajero v73 SUVs, and promises not to carpool with others, without any shopping spots and mandatory tips.

After all the formalities were completed, the driver picked him up at the hotel the next day and started a 22-day journey. Hotels and restaurants along the way are all booked by themselves or recommended by drivers (some hotels and restaurants recommended by drivers will get a commission)

Evaluation:

First of all, the decision to charter the whole journey is appropriate. If you go to Tibet again, you will still choose to charter a car. But the fly in the ointment is that the quality of the driver did not meet expectations this time.

This time, the driver was given 6 points (full score 10). Both drivers are very experienced in driving skills and know the road conditions every day. I am still quite satisfied. Therefore, it is precisely because they have successfully avoided many big traffic jams that their trip has not been hindered.

In addition, when you arrive at the scenic spot, you will be prompted to pay attention and make an appointment for the gathering time. When Tibetans charge fees at some scenic spots, drivers will remind us how to avoid them.

But the problem is that they have a bad temper. When we don't choose to go to their suggested residence or restaurant, they will look pale. Because we don't go, they won't get extra commission income.

In short, the quality of chartered drivers directly affects the whole experience. If you meet a good driver, you will think.

1. When renting a car, it's best not to pay all the charter fees in one lump sum. It is best to pay attention to the service on the two trips, and any dissatisfaction will be guaranteed.

2. If you don't want the driver to arrange accommodation along the way, please search online one night in advance, and then inform the driver of the accommodation arrangement on the same day.

3. Please charter cars separately after the Sichuan-Tibet line and Lhasa, because chartered cars on the Sichuan-Tibet line may not be legally used to provide Tibet tourism services. The third place in the license plate of Tibet's legal tour bus must be L.

4. If you have time to take the Tibet line or the Yunnan-Tibet line from Lhasa, you can consider carpooling, add an extra Qinghai-Tibet line, and then start from Xining. Because carpooling is cheap and there are many choices, the road conditions on the Qinghai-Tibet line are good.

Some drivers will smoke casually in the car. Overtaking is common. Don't be angry.

6. Drivers in plateau areas will open more windows without air conditioning, in order to prevent the lack of oxygen in the car, not to save money.
