5.00This was my 2nd tour planned by Windhorse Tours (the 1st was to Tibet pre-pandemic) and Yuki provided a fantastic itinerary full of adventure activities and some sightseeing. Yuki notified me regularly about changes to flights and hotels as the holiday approached - thank you very much. The hotels Yuki selected were close to transport, shops and restaurants (a necessity for me because I have a bad sense of direction - not ha, ha). I specifically asked to have a driver each day (who initially met me at a airport or train station holding a sign with my name) to take me to different activities and not a guide because I prefer to race around each location at my own speed and this worked perfectly for this tour - with a little help from Satellite Navigation to ensure I returned to the vehicle at the end of visiting each location. I also arranged to have a free day in each city. I appreciated the drivers that Windhorse Tours selected who used clean modern cars, provided drinking water and waited (patiently) until I was ready to leave each location. I occasionally got phone calls from Jeffrey from Windhorse Tours in different cities to provide additional advice/suggestions. Windhorse Tours provided a range of payment options (in different currencies) and immediately provided payment receipts. I would definitely recommend using Windhorse Tours to provide a tailored plan/costing for your next holiday to China/Tibet.
