Hello Tom,
We had a wonderful time in China on our tour and are so glad we decided to go with China Travel Depot. The entire tour exceeded our expectations and we wouldn't hesitate to use your services again or recommend it to others. Hopefully these answers to your questions will be of use to you.
We thought that all of the timings for each location were excellent the way they were. For many of the sites we visited (Forbidden City, Ming tombs, etc.) our guides did a great job of showing us the highlights of such large grounds. We never felt rushed or that we had missed anything. Having the guides only enhanced our experience as they were able to share fascinating information about each site and provide a personal insight into each visit.All of the meals were very good on the trip, in fact the food exceeded our expectations on several occasions. The best breakfast that we had was at the Holiday Inn. Their breakfast buffet is one of the best we've ever had. Our favorite lunch was actually in Yichang at a local Sichuan restaurant our guide Gary took us to. We had mentioned that our group liked spicy food so he picked a restaurant (sorry I don't remember the name) and the food there was incredible. The best supper was by far the Peking duck supper. We had never tried this type of duck before and really enjoyed seeing it roasted and cut in the restaurant.
Thank you for your excellent tour package, and good luck.
