Review for: Bus quality group
Overall, it's acceptable. The morning pick-up was 20 minutes late compared to the scheduled itinerary. We each paid an extra 430 yuan for optional activities. The scenery was beautiful, and the itinerary was packed. The tour guide collected everyone's ID cards. Before the return trip, we were taken to a temporary shop to buy medicinal herbs. On the return, we were dropped off in the suburbs of Urumqi. The tour guide said the vehicles couldn't enter the city, which didn't match the original itinerary. The value for money is also relatively low.
