💬 [Real Tourist Reviews]💬
“Mr. and Mrs. Li from Beijing: On the September Kanas small group tour we joined, guide Xiao Wang prepared cold-weather clothing for us in advance and immediately took out spare raincoats when it suddenly rained at the Fish Watching Terrace. The most delightful surprise was arranging for a Tuvan elder to teach us how to make milk curd in Hemu Village. This kind of in-depth experience is something independent travel cannot provide.”
“Ms. Zhang from Shanghai:On the Ili Loop tour with my parents, the travel agency specially arranged low-floor rooms and reminded us of medication times throughout the trip. When the temperature suddenly dropped at Nalati Grassland, the guide immediately contacted the vehicle fleet to deliver down jackets. This kind of service detail is touching.”
