She brought around smoothly and gave her advise on various photo area. she even advise us where to sit during the impression of lijiang where we can use an umbrella freely to avoid the hot sun. She also gave us advise on how to proceed to Kunming when we told her there are almost no more tickets from Lijiang. She advised us to go to Dali (as there are more tickets avail to kunming from there) to transfer to kunming instead which is a really great idea. overall me and my wife had a wonderful time :)”
