Best trip I‘ve ever had! In a country I would have probably struggeled travelling on my own, I had the best CEO I could imagine. She was so helpful 24/7 and it was so much fun to learn from her about her country. The destinations were well choosen and it was a prefect mixture of nature and vibrant cities!!!

We spent 4 days in Pingyao and it was an awesome experience! A big thank you to TUI China who organised our trip there and to our local tour guide! You were awesome! You gave us a great experience. Keep up the great work!!
We had a fantastic driver who took us to the places we wanted to visit. He was very accommodating and was always ready for us with ice cold water! He directed us to the local guides at each site and his choices were always perfect. One member of our small group (4) had a problem walking and the driver was sure to take that into consideration at every stop. The price was more than reasonable.
