Most tour operators will not tell you in advance, but will take you to many overpriced commission factories (silk, jade, etc) where you spend hours looking at overpriced souveniers and eating second rate Chinese food. This is a way for them to make the trip cheaper and make extra money through commissions. We prefer to charge a little more, not cheat you one shopping and let you spend more time on tour. If you do want to shop, our guides can take you to places where you can buy goods at a fair price and we do not make a commission.')
