Creator's Key Takeaways

we recently took a free trip with UT vacations and well was it free is it a scam or is it just the Chinese government trying to take us on a shopping trip

the government sponsored visits not a lot of free time and UT does have a bad rep

you cannot beat that price and we visited all the major highlights the hotels and tour guides were great

we loved our time at the elephant jungle sanctuary and spent the rest of the afternoon on the beach

YouTube Video Description↓

Reuben & Rebecca take a "free" trip offered by UTO Vacations to visit China and Thailand. The reviews are terrible and some say it's a scam. Will we get to see China, or just visit "government sponsored" sites? How much does it really cost? Come with us as we travel on our first ever group escorted trip and see if this free trip is worth it. We visit Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, Wuxi, Hangzhou, Bangkok and Pattaya Beach. Our tour covers Tiananmen Square, The Forbidden City, Summer Palace, Master of the Nets, Lanli Garden, Li Lake, West Lake, Water Towns, Nanchang Street, The Bund, Maglev Train, The Knock Off Market, Temple of Golden Buddha, The Marble Temple, Buddha Mountain, and Pattaya Rainforest Elephant Sanctuary.
