Hi Luis,
Thank you for writing. We are home and we had a wonderful time in China. We have many photos and great memories.
The tour was very enjoyable and the service was excellent. The hotels were outstanding. We definitely recommend both the Garden Hotel in Datong and the guest house in Pingyao. Ms. Lee, the tour guide who helped us to the train in Beijing was very kind and helpful. She arranged everything and got us settled in our soft sleeper and answered all of our questions about how things worked on the train. The soft sleeper was very comfortable and was an interesting experience for us.
The only other suggestion for the trip was about the fast train home from Taiyuan. It would have been better to be on an earlier train back to Beijing because we did not have very much to see the last day and the train arrived in Beijing very late for our children. We also might have preferred to go first class on the bullet train if we had seen that option. But second class was comfortable and it was a very nice train! We enjoyed it.
Mostly the trip was fantastic. We learned a lot and saw amazing things. Thank you so much for your work in organizing it all. I would be happy to be a reference for your company in the future.
Best regards,
Laura
