I have been back in Australia a week and catching up on all my emails and like here.
I wanted to let you know I enjoyed the Tolou tour and Nick was a wonderful guide, very patient as we took lots longer I am sure than others because of our photography. I think we have done a bit more walking than others as well.
I found it all so interesting and especially staying in the tolou, although very cold at night.
A suggestion - in the future, advise customers that is much colder in the mountains compared to Xiamen.
Kind regards.
