According to the report, after verification, Mr. Yu, a tourist, and a group of 74 people participated in the Yunnan tour through Guizhou Qianyou Travel Agency in Guizhou, and Feng, a staff member of the travel agency, accompanied the whole process. Guizhou Qianyou Travel Agency entrusted Yunnan Overseas International Tourism Group Holding Yunnan Branch to receive the itinerary of the Yunnan section of the tour group, and Yunnan Overseas International Tourism Group Holding Yunnan Branch entrusted the team to Yunnan Xinglou International Travel Agency to receive, and then Yunnan Xinglou International Travel Agency entrusted Lijiang Sanduo Travel Agency to be responsible for receiving the Lijiang section of the itinerary. The tour group arrived at Lihou at around 1:7 on January 15 and went to Lashi Haiyun Racecourse for an excursion. In the meantime, tourists disagreed with travel agencies because of the price of horseback riding, and Guizhou Qianyou Travel Agency Feng told tourists that "they should either participate in horseback riding activities at their own expense, or pay 00 yuan/person" in accordance with the requirements of Shi Moumou, a holding company of Yunnan Overseas International Tourism Group, which caused dissatisfaction among tourists. Ms. Tian, a tourist in the group, called the police to 200, and after the police of the Lashi Police Station coordinated, the tourist team did not participate in the horseback riding project and did not incur expenses, and the travel agency arranged for the tourists to return to the city to stay in the hotel.
