Summary:
We have had the most memorable 12 days private tour planned by Grace of China Xian Tour. She organised and coordinated the toured flawlessly at Kunming, Dali, Shanxi, Lijiang and Shangrila. We had 4 English speaking guides; each very friendly, knowledgeable and able to open door to visit some private home in the old town seeing the courtyard first hand. We had a lot of good times, laughs, great food, and we get to know China so much better.
Grace was always reachable during the entire tours and most importantly the guides and safe driving allow us to enjoy the sights. The drivers and guides were most courteous and always there to open the door for us alight and board the vehicles.

Summary:
This was our first time going to China by private tour, and we are glad that we made that choice. The travel consultant that we spoke with was very responsive to our questions, and arranged a great itinerary for us that accommodated our preferences and last-minute changes. We visited Kunming, Dali, and Lijiang in Yunnan. The natural scenery was majestic, the food was cheap and tasty, and its history and culture is rich. All of the tour guides took good care of us, followed what we wanted to see and do, helped us take great photos, and gave us good knowledge about the area. I highly recommend going on private tours with China Xian tours as they allow greater flexibility in arranging
a customised tour that suit your personal preferences and needs at reasonable prices.
