Fantastic Tour of Yunnan


Thank you for an absolutely fantastic tour of Yunnan. This tour far exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time exploring one of China's most beautiful and interesting regions. Our guides were all outstanding. All spoke fluent English and all were highly intelligent, knowledgeable, wise, and friendly people. Wang Weizhang gave us an outstanding tour of Kunming beginning with the Bamboo Temple which was lovely and fascinating. It was quite amazing to see the 500 painted clay sculptures of Li Guangxiu and the Shr Lin Park was spectacular. Our driver in Kunming was friendly and very professional. Li Yan Mei gave us a fascinating tour of Dali and environs and insight into Bai culture. Ms. Li was absolutely charming and gave us a superlative tour of the area - far exceeding expectations. We tremendously enjoyed our visit to Dali, highlighted by our trip to the Three Pagaodas, to a bustling market, and a boat ride on Erlai Lake which gave us opportunity to watch Comorants fishing. ShriLy was an excellent guide and provided us a fascinating tour of Lijiang and Naxi culture. Our driver in Dali City and Lijiang was perhaps the most courteous and excellent driver in the world. Throughout our tour the food was outstanding and our accommodations lovely. All the transportation arrangements worked out wonderfully -- our flights from Nanjing to Kunming, Kunming to Dali City, Lijiang to Shanghai all went smoothly and our drive from Dali City to Lijiang was pleasant and interesting. We have been to China before and traveled on our own extensively-- I do speak some Putunghwa-- but our tour with TCT gave us exposure to cultures and places that we likely would have missed out on our own. This was a great tour and we hope to travel with TCT again in the future. We highly recommend TCT to our friends and relatives and any one interested in traveling around China.
Thank you very much for all your help in making our visit so rich and rewarding.
