China Tour Reviews from Our Malaysian Clients
We had custom made tours to Suzhou and Huangshan, from Shanghai. My friends, husband and I had a very good time. The timing to visit Huangshan Mountain was perfect as we got to see the sea of clouds. We also got to enjoy the hairy crabs in Suzhou as it was the season. The hotel we stayed in Tunxi was a blend of old and new, thus making it a unique experience to stay there. Much appreciation to Jackie from ETC who planned and arranged the trips.
