Review 1
What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Too many memorable parts to pick just one! The Great Wall, the Li River, and the rice terraces stand out for me, but my son's favourite was playing cards in a tea house in Cheng Du, while my husband had his ears cleaned!
What did you think of your tour leader?
Zhao Bo was brilliant. Informative, patient and with a sense of humour.
Do you feel your holiday benefited local people?
Somewhat, but not perhaps as much as other tours we have done, as most of the places were Chinese tourist destinations too.
Do you feel that you got under the skin of a country?
yes. We certainly saw more of daily life and living conditions that the average tourist.
What advice would you give to other travellers?
Go with the flow. Do not expect western levels of comfort and stay away from the Starbucks/McDonalds/KFC options available in the big cities. Take flipflops for the rafting in Yangshuo and put on loads of sun cream. You do NOT need to dress up at all. And DON'T order western meals in the Dong village and expect to get them - this is the middle of nowhere!
