Dear Wendy,

Our 10 day tour of China was very well done by Travel China Guide. Our guides were waiting at the airport when we arrived at each destination and our drivers were very good also. Our guides were very knowledgeable about their areas and we were able to learn a great deal from them. We really appreciated the cold water they kept in the vans since it was extremely hot and humid there. The case of water for the Yangtze River Cruise was very much appreciated also. Our guides were very flexible and when we wanted to change our itinerary or cancel one of our sightseeing destinations each guide was very understanding and had wonderful suggestions for us.We can't give enough compliments and "thank you" to our guides.

We ate at wonderful restaurants that were included in the tour but it was too much.I think one of the meals(maybe lunch) should be very light with just lots of liquids for the heat.

We would like to have had more time for shopping as we wanted to bring back something nice from our tour but we had too many things we wanted to see also. I would suggest that any stores that the guides may take us to be listed before we arrive so that we know we are going. And personally we like to see items when we first arrive so that we have a day or two to decide what we may want before departing. We especially liked the Bazaars since that is something we don't usually see. More store stop would be good.

We really enjoyed our tour and our guides. We certainly would use Travel China Guide when we return to China.
