What should I do if I am forced to buy something while traveling in Yunnan?

The first tip: Unite as one. Generally, the tour guides who compulsively consume are from low-cost tour groups, senior groups, or small groups of about ten people. Such groups usually have one or two people. Tour guide, if the tour guide does not follow the itinerary plan, pulls tourists to shopping malls or shopping spots, promotes or forces tourists to shop, then the simplest and most effective method can be used at this time, which is for everyone to unite and reject the tour guide's behavior. Generally speaking, all "evil people" fear united people.

Top 2: Keep evidence to ensure safety. Usually tour guides will join forces with people at shopping points. If you don’t consume and want to report, they will call out “thugs” to come to the tourists. Trouble, at this time you must calmly protect your own personal safety. The correct approach is to try to choose some cheap products to buy and deal with these "thugs". In the process, you have to secretly use your mobile phone to record or take videos, collect the product invoices, remember the name of the shopping mall and other information, and save it. If there is any evidence of being forced to shop, make sure you are safe after leaving the shopping area before calling the police or calling the hotline to report it.

The third trick: Say no loudly! When someone yells at you, you should yell back louder and more seriously. As long as it does not endanger your own safety, this is the best way to respond to the tour guide with a yell. He doesn't think you are a good person. People who are easily bullied will also become timid and afraid of getting into trouble. This "yelling" approach also has a certain effect.

The fourth tip: Leave the group immediately. If you encounter a tour guide who forces tourists to shop, it is basically certain that your trip will be a failure and imperfect. Then you can contact them at this time. The travel agency asked to leave the group and compensate. If this trip is booked on a third-party travel platform, you can directly enter the platform to find customer service and apply for arbitration against the travel agency, because any regular travel agency must protect tourists and must not force or defraud tourists.
