Hi, anyone out there taking the Laurus 22 day Panorama trip to China or have in the past. Would like feedback about this tour.<BR>Thanks, <BR>Susan

We are booked for the Sept 2 departure.<BR><BR>Anyone else?

Hi Vicki, we are leaving on October 21. Would love to hear from you when you get back. We will be leaving on Oct. 19th from the states.<BR><BR>Did you receive a daily itinerary?<BR><BR>Susan

Hi Susan,<BR>Yes, we have the itinery. Laurus was the only company we found with such a good one. We wanted to spend as much time on mainland China as possible; we feel we can "do" Hong Kong by ourselves at a later date. Few tours seem to cover the southwest (Kunming/Dali/Lijiang) as well as this one.<BR>We also liked Laurus' maximum group size and their low prices!<BR>Will certainly post a report when we get back. As you can tell, we are excited!!

Ack! I *do* know how to spell 'itinerary'!

Hi Vicki,<BR><BR>We chose to go with Laurus for the same reasons you did. We will be arriving in Beijing two days before the trip starts and are also extending the trip at the end to go to Hong Kong and hopefully to first to Huang Shan.<BR><BR>This was the only tour we found that went to the UNESCO Historical cities.<BR><BR>Susan
