Reviews for Wu Hou Shrine Tours
W
This tour is an absolute marathon, but it covers more of China than I thought possible in 17 days. The highlight was reaching Everest Base Camp — the sunrise there is unforgettable. The guide in Tibet was very attentive to our altitude sickness. Be prepared for early mornings and lots of flights, but everything was well-organized. A true adventure.
