Hi all,

I'm living in South Korea right now, and during my 2-week vacation this summer, my mom's flying in from the US and we're going on a trip to China together. Normally I don't like tours-- arranging everything and having to look out for myself when things go wrong is part of the fun-- but my mom would prefer one (though possibly only a 1-week tour, and then one week traveling ourselves). The problem is, I don't really know anything about tours! And I'm on a fairly limited budget.

Are there any cheap, but still pretty good 1-2 week tours of the highlights of China? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
