Dear Brenda and Cynthia,
Thank you for your efforts in making us a comfortable China trip. Please find our comments below:
The meals were excellent. Explanations are very important because the Chinese cuisine are far different and it will be better to learn something about the combinaions, the manners, and so on. The guides joining tourists to some meals will be welcomed.
The best we would like to recommend is the Beijing Duck we've enjoyed up to the last piece.
The cars were clean and the drivers's attitude was correct.
We want to convey our thanks to our lady guides in Guilin and Xian, who were very helpful and try to sort out with dilligence all our requests.
In short, here are some comments to each of the places we visited in China:
1. Beijing: One day more will be OK. Very interesting places, but not too much time by ourselves. Great Wall and Summer Palace were our favorites;
2. Xian: All city attractions we have visited were outstanding: The Terracotta Warriors, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the City Wall and the Muslim Quarter;
3. Guilin: The place we loved most - the Li River cruise and the picturesque Yangshuo countryside - better to stay more here;
4. Shanghai: Spectacular city - time was too short.
Once again thank you very much for the nice time we spent in your beautiful and interesting country.
Adrian and Cecilia
