Tips For Our Next Trip

Next Group Tour - Fall 2009

We believe we learned some valuable lessons from our first group tour that we can apply to our next group tour.

1.   May is already hot in China. We think a better time of year might be late September or early October.
2.   Allow for rest and recuperation. It can be exhausting being a tourist.
3.   Bring appropriate shoes for different needs. Sneakers for incline and heavy walking, dress shoes for evening outings and casual shoes for all other times.
4.   Traveler’s checks get a better exchange rate than cash.
5.   Carry a fork with you if you are not comfortable with chopsticks.
