We felt that the time distributed to each sightseeing spot was good with the exception of the short time allocated for Shanghai. Why could we not have taken an earlier flight to Shanghai once we had visited the Dam Project. This visit was extremely interesting but the remainder of our time in Yi-Chang was plain.
Most of the meals were very good, but at times we felt we were offered more food than was needed and so there was quite a bit of waste. We really enjoyed the buffet dinner at the Holiday Inn Yangtze where we were able to choose between Chinese and Western style food.
All the guides were extremely knowledgeable and we enjoyed all of them. We felt that our guide in Beijing, Jason, was the most personable of the guides and he went to great lengths to remember everyone's names and made our stay very enjoyable.
All the buses we traveled in were very clean and the drivers were very courteous.
Overall we thought that Travel China Guide was very good value and a well run organization. All of our guides were excellent and nothing was too much trouble for them. We would certainly recommend this China tour to anyone who asks.
