Dear Tom,

Thanks for the photo. It's very nice. Overall I'd like to say thanks for a great trip. It really couldn't have been more amazing. I loved it and will certainly recommend you to friends and colleagues and anyone interested in seeing more of China.

The meals were very good. The best probably were the Pecking Duck dinner and the lunch served in our second full day also in Beijing, after visiting the Ming tombs. The guided were knowledgeable, spoke very good English and were helpful. The drivers with their vehicles were very satisfactory throughout.

The hotels arranged for us varied in their quality. The one we liked the most was the Hotel Ibis (Shanghai JinshaJiang). It is absolutely stunning. The service and the food quality were also excellent. We were not too happy with the Hotel Ibis Xian. It has a good location.

Overall it was wonderful and coming back to work has been hard. I am very keen to go again to another area exploring as soon as I can. It was all so easy with everything arranged. Definitely better than trying to do it by yourself. Thank you again,

Leonard Cockayne,
