Everything was arranged promptly. Agency is very proactive in confirming details prior to the trip. All arrangements were made without much fuss. Train tickets were sent to hotel concierge in advance and explanations and advice were given beforehand on what to expect and bring. Tour guide, Fei, was very attentive and provided us with umbrella and handheld electronic fan as the weather was sweltering hot! Her explanation was detailed too. Highly recommended!
