'D watch ripped

In late June, because you want to travel to France to Paris to see a customer, for personal business visa difficulties, joined a travel agency organisation of European ten countries for 14 days tours to Europe.

The total cost is 17000 yuan/person. Considered together, the energy of their own for visas, a return ticket is 8000, plus there's accommodation, far more than $ 17000, moreover also can not go so many countries. In a trip to see some travel agents and tour guides hurt the passenger, the text of the special inquiry this warning the broad planning to travel in Europe tour of the reader, when you go to when you can learn a little, not to do an onion.

Travel ten countries are Italy, Vatican, Austria, Switzerland, are financed by Don Johnston, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France.

The majority of domestic tourists because it is the first time to visit Europe, went to always want to go a few countries, the travel agencies in the wiring that cater to the visitor's taste, as many countries. In fact you have entered them set a trap, because the way Switzerland in the beginning when the DUN-DUN, nothing but only stay for half an hour. The Vatican is in the City State in the territory of Italy, but it can be considered a State. Go to Austria only to British Sibulu grams such a small city, but did not go to Vienna. To Switzerland, Lucerne only went to a famous small cities, does not have to go to Geneva and Davos. Went to Germany to Frankfurt is only a little monuments of emerging economies, which didn't go to the city of Hamburg, Berlin as a result of the second world war and the famous city. The Netherlands make you day tour of Amsterdam's red light district, old and young girl going to watch the show together, and let your evening live in outlying urban 50 kilometres away, play back and forth to 100 euros a roadside hotels. Let the man night only drool hangover day seen. Want to arrange for a more reasonable only Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg and France these four countries, so the ten countries in Europe can only be regarded as a tour to European four countries. Therefore, people should never have to many, but the fine, to take place. And watching the tour, take a look at the travel arrangements for some kind of city, and not just to see how many countries.

And then we look at how black tour guides.

Take our tour guide is the whole Taiwan people, because Taiwan open European tourism for more than ten years, and we are six months or a year, could cultivate our continent's Guide. No wonder he can become familiar with the area we drove tens of kilometers to a lonely town for dinner they Taiwan compatriot opened a restaurant meal in. Fellow Thomas for his help, point to point in kickbacks, business, seems to be beyond reproach. May issue of gas is a staff at their own expense item price table, the actual ticket price above will be turned over and again, let your signature tick you are going to play. Even in China, the guide is not the actual ticket price doubled and then reported to the tourists, the actual number of discounted group tickets can play that is competent to guide yourself, how many visitors didn't. General to European tourists are domestic economic comparison of plenty of people, there are many public funds to the fancy wrappings called business visits, there is the Communist Party cadres retired before the final award activities, they are not at the cost of the project's actual ticket price are accommodated on the hook to check on the name. The tour alongside flattered to see them.

We take a look at his own expense out of price: Venice with tuna vessels and 25 euros per person, actually own buy tickets as long as 8 euros; Switzerland, tieli Hill 60 euros; actual 38 Euro 110 euros Paris Moulin, realistic 75 euros; 15 euros, the Seine actual 7.5 euros; Rhine cruise 20 euros, though because I did not actually went to the unknown, but my guess is around 10 euros.

Table is a traditional Chinese print, I estimate the price differences are removed, and the tour guide Taiwan and China travel service-independent. We are a group of 48 people, only 8 people not to participate in all of your own expense, you can calculate how much money he took, light in this part of the post there are over 3000 euro into his own pockets, not including his purchase group tickets for discounts.

In addition, the 14-day trip by thirteen days calculation meals per day, that is, each 10 euros minimum standards, the guide can also be picked off a 1 €/meal/person, EUR 1248.

To receive your own expense of money also unashamedly said we needed per person per day € 5 on the other hand tips, including to local tour guide and bus drivers for 3 euros. Let us believe he only scored one of the 2 euro, 2 euro a day 48 individuals, a total of 13 days, and 1248 euros. Let us aggregate it within 14 days of the tour guides directly from tourists who earn much money: 3000 + 1248 + 1248 = 5496 euros, it seems only the annual salary of more than a million of the CEO can and his income equivalent! this part of the tour guides are not jealous, just want to say that you take your pick, do not get hurt the visitors ' money. Think tourists to Europe for the first time, everything I do not know that they are idiots. Hotel discount, you can't, you fit the show; restaurant and your fellow relationship is good, the food quality is not bad for your price concessions, you take the purchase of tickets; groups, you should get the discount. But you absolutely cannot make the original ticket price doubled and then reported to the tourists, chopped off! more shameless is lest we do not know the rules, and tips to open big mouth and we set the standard for a tip. 5 euro per person per day, it's ridiculous and pathetic.

There is also a matter incidentally, out of the airport, the Guide to each of your Passport, that is, in fact he unified the custody or worry about someone running away.

I have not handed over to him, because I have a few days away from mission to customers. Me and he said: I will not be illegal but will not be handed over to you, because I was in Shanghai, will not do anything to steal escape. Taiwan, Hong Kong people to European team also received their travel passport? I ask him, he felt that there would be no further to my collection of passports. Citizens when dead weight, we have a variety of legal means to work or study abroad, why not to do black households? travel agency to do so would also love to have, because you sure it was through this way of working in overseas.P > Liu Kang
