What is the difference between Private tours and SIC tours?
Private tours are fully escorted packages, which mean in each city, you will have a PRIVATE professional tour guide speaking your language and a PRIVATE air-conditioned car/van/coach with your PRIVATE driver at your service the moment you land in the first stop till seeing you off at the airport / train station back home. If you take our private package, you will not be mixed with other tourists when sightseeing and transferring except that you take the Yangtze River Cruise and Li River Cruise. You will also take your trip at your own pace.
Seat-in-Coach Tours means you will share an air-conditioned coach and an English speaking guide with other tourists during all the scenic spots listed in the Itinerary that day. Your tour guide will contact you the night before you take the tour to inform you about the next day's departure time and meeting spot (usually, you will be met at the lobby of your hotel) in case you will not find your group.
Compared with Private tours, Seat-in-Coach Tours are usually less expensive than the Private tours. Furthermore, you will have chance to make more friends who speak English from all over the world. However, private tours are more flexible, you will not feel hurried.
