Have you ever encountered a shopping group while traveling?

I have encountered tourist shopping groups, but I have never encountered any forced shopping groups, and the final result was pretty good.

A recent news story is about tourist Xiao Min and her friends who signed up for a 6-day and 5-night Yunnan tour group. The tour fee for the two of them was only 1,580 yuan. The tour guide said that each tourist would be assigned a pick-up attendant. The tourists’ home addresses are known to threaten shopping, and tourists are divided into three consumption levels: working class consumption 3,000-8,000, white-collar consumption 8,000-20,000, and boutique consumption 20,000-100,000.

Good guy, this tour guide has definitely broken the law, and he still dares to threaten citizens with their personal information. Isn’t this an extra crime?

This reminds me of the several times our family participated in shopping tour groups. I remember that it was around 2008. My mother took me and my cousin to visit Guilin. The three children were still on vacation from junior high school to high school, and they signed up for a tour group.

As the saying goes, Guilin’s landscape is the best in the world.

I have to say that the landscape of Guilin is still very beautiful. During the few days of travel, the most memorable thing for me was the boat trip on the Li River. This trip was really slow. Other attractions, As long as we are on land, we are in a hurry. It has been many years and I can’t remember the specific itinerary. I only remember that the tour guide took us shopping 3-4 times, and he even took us shopping on the last day. Souvenirs.

There are jade shops, health product shops, and all kinds of shopping stores we can think of. Because we have never encountered shopping groups during our travels, we didn’t have much preparation. At that time, the whole family did not have credit cards. Everyone only brought a few hundred yuan in cash for emergencies. I remember I only bought a bunch of colored glaze at a jade shop.

The experience of this tour was indeed poor, but the tour guide did not force us to shop. He just took us to the shopping place, and then persuaded everyone to buy things with various kind words. Later, there were several shopping spots Because we didn’t have much money, the tour guide simply let us sit in the car and wait for them to finish shopping. I felt that this tour guide was pretty good!
