We began in Beijing for our 12 day highlight tour and took the 5* hotel option. This was the first time we ever took a tour, we are independent travelers in our 60s, but thought we needed guidance for China. We were met at each airport or train station with no problems, taken to our lovely hotels by each local guide. The day tours were just as expected, and our group was never more than 6 adults. Our guides knew lots about every stop and some were quite funny (Shirley in Beijing!) and very attentive. The breakfasts at each hotel were absolutely fantastic. We usually did not stop for lunch, just completed the day tour and enjoyed our free time for the rest of the afternoon or evening. The days were well paced. We were always aware of what to be ready for the next day. The hotels were all well located, we never had a problem finding a great restaurant within walking distance for dinner. We felt safe, the drivers were very cautious and the vans and cars were in very good condition. The tour was certainly a good value, and we saw all of the highlights we had hoped for. Communication with the staff was always prompt. Keep up the good work!
