● "Fantastic China Tour with TCG" by Stewart B

"Having now done the trip I can whole heartedly recommend TCG. I was not let down on any one issue. They did our tours (normal tourist activities in Beijing and Xi'an), accommodation (incl. breakfast), lunch every day (on an ala carte basis) and two internal flights. In each city we were met and accompanied on each tour by the english speaking guide in that city and he also ensured we booked into our onward flight. Their standard of English was very good, not what I expected at all. We had a private guide and driver so can't comment on the group tour arrangements. The meal allowances were sufficient to allow a little extra tasting and beers with every meal..."

● "Family holiday to China - review" by CamAC70

"Background - my family (2 adults and 2 children -12 &9) live in Australia and we had been looking for options to visit China. We liked the idea of a group bus tour as they would take care of everything (& we were concerned about how easy it would be to get around) - however no companies in Oz would take children of our ages for anything over about 12 days - and we wanted a comprehensive tour of 22 days. At the prompting of a friend we found TravelChinaGuide.com and started communications. Over the coming months we worked through an itinerary that included the following... Beijing - Xian - Chongqing - Yangtze River Cruise - Yichang - Shanghai - Suzhou - Hangzhou - Guilin - Yangshuo - Guilin

Honestly, I expected to just use this service as a way to develop an itinerary & get estimates together before taking this to my local tourist bureau to get them to set something up for us... However, over the subsequent months I was so impressed with the service, cost, and honest (as far as I could tell) helpfulness of the consultant I was dealing with that I decided we'd go with them. I also discovered that our local agent here couldn't organise a similar tour for anything near the price..."

● "Travel China Guide -- Efficient, professional, educational and fun" by Escambian

"Searching for a tour operator on-line and knowing no one who had previously traveled in China, Travel China Guide stood out with consistently positive Trip Advisor reviews. Because I convinced six other people to join us on the 11-day tour of Beijing, Xi'an, the Yangtze cruise, and Shanghai solely based on these reviews, I was still apprehensive -- until our first meeting in Beijing. The next eleven days ran like clockwork with every detail covered by our personable, efficient guides and drivers....

We felt that the cost of the trip was very reasonable considering that it covered 4 and 5-star hotels, most meals, three internal flights, the river cruise, and admissions to dozens of attractions. TCG also arranged an extra night's accommodation at the beginning and still met us at the airport. All of the guides were knowledgeable and fluent in English and went out of their way to keep us informed and well cared for. This was a trip of a lifetime, and we're very appreciative of the services of Travel China Guide. "

● "Best TourGuides Ever!" by moontart

"Initially when I first contacted them and had to wire money to a foreign country I was worried that it might be a scam but rest assure it was not. We had a small group and opted for a personalized trip as we had a limited amount of time to be spent in Beijing and Xian, China. Sara, our tour guide in Beijing China greeted us at the airport, whisked us to our hotel, checked us in and basically arranged everything like she was our god mother. Her and our driver, Master Chen kept us on schedule and also made the tour so enjoyable it really felt like we were with a family member showing us around. Everything was so detailed arranged, even down to the airport when we left and got stopped by customs (do not carry water - not even in check in!!) Sara was there to help interpret and was still there until we went through...

If anyone has any doubts, I can tell you first hand- don't. This tour guide legit and you will have the most wonderful time. I have had other tour guides in other countries and this is the best, I just wish they also were available for other countries!"

● "Trip Report - TravelChinaGuide" by sapientpear

"We recently undertook a nine day guided tour "Gems of China" with TravelChinaGuide. The tour started out with 18 members, but dwindled to 10 by the end as some went off to Tibet and others to the Yangtze cruise.

Overall we were very pleased with the tour, and impressed with the way that so much sightseeing was compressed into so little time. Inevitably this made for long days, though, with a couple of days that were quite exhausting. The guides were informative, attentive, organised, and reliable...."

● "A very professional company which provides outstanding value for money!" by Glynis031

"I have recently been on a tour with TravelChinaGuide (TCG), whom I selected after countless hours of research on the internet. I chose the small group tour of 11 days: Beijing - Xian - Guilin - Yangshuo - Guilin – Shanghai. There were 14 in our tour group - from Australia, New Zealand, the USA, and England.

I cannot speak highly enough of this tour company. I am a frequent traveller and have been on six organised tours in Europe (with Insight Vacations), but have mostly travelled independently throughout Asia..."

● "Trip report with Travel China Guide" by WORMSRASCAL

"WOW!!!....What an unbelievable journey. 

Long time in the making,postponed so many times. I finally made it there.
 
Thumbs up to Travel China Guide for exceptional customer service, for two years of emails, answering each email with kindness and compassion. From the kind words when my friends mom fell ill, to the concern when Hurricane Irene hit NJ. No email was unworthy..even if I just wrote to ask about the weather. 

What a pleasure to deal with and I was most pleased using that company. They care about their clients!..."

● "Great Value/Great Guides/Wonderful Memories" by soupiemac

"Although my husband and I have travelled extensively, we had never taken a guided tour before. If all tours are as wonderful as this one, I will have to do many more! We did a small group (17 people) tour of Beijing (3 nights), Xi'an (2 nights), and Shanghai (2 nights). The Bejing and Shanghi hotels were spectacular. The guides in each city were well versed in English and in local history. The tour hit all the highlights: Great Wall, Forbidden City, Terra Cotta Warriors, Xi'an City Wall, etc...."

● "Excellent online travel agency" by madhavkudva   

"We had no regrets using Travelchinaguide to organise our recent trip to Xian and the Yangtze cruise. Their experienced travel experts tailor made our itinerary to suit our requirements. Pre travel, all queries were promptly answered. Hotels were four or five star and the cuisine provided was a combination of Chinese and Western. The Yangtze cruise was on the deluxe Century Sun. Our trip was hassle free and their guides were at hand to meet us at the airports in all the destinations. Guides spoke good English and were knowledgeable , not only about the sites visited but also the culture and nuances of the local people. In particular we were bowled over by the enthusiasm and passion of our guide, David, in Xian who made our holiday truly memorable.We will not hesitate to use Travelchinaguide in the future and will also recommended them to our friends.

● "EXCELLENT ...A+++ for TravelChinaGuide!" by faithgita   

"We really enjoyed our vacation in China.

After everything was arranged and numerous emails I send double payment, just click twice. So what, I was so excited. Making double payment and I even didn't know it.

Received email from TCG and in the email they informed me that refund is on the way for the extra payment I have made. In no time refund was posted to my credit card..."

● "Review of recent tour with TravelChinaGuide" by DadB 

"My wife, daughter, and I recently returned from a two-week tour of China consisting of 11 days on a private tour with TravelChinaGuide, followed by 3 days on our own in Hong Kong (which TCG doesn't do, I guess). Overall, I thought TravelChinaGuide was an excellent value. We saw Beijing, Xi'an (3 nights each), Shanghai, and Guilin (2 nights each). We had a personal guide and driver in each location. All transfers and flights between cities were included- and they not only picked us up from the airport, they got our boarding passes and stayed with us up to security when we were flying out."

● "Travel China Guide-such a nice company! " by WORMSRASCAL

"Today I finalized my trip to China with TCG. Since day one they have been nothing but gracious to me answering every email, even if it was just to ask what the weather was like in China.

They bent over backwards for me when I couldnt come up with my full payment three months in advance (to get a discount) and created a trip to fit my budget…"

●  15 days vacation in China by cicoFL (US) 

"We were impressed by our agent - TravelChinaGuide since the first moment we contacted them. They responded to all our emails within 24 hours . That is why we chose them, we knew we could count on them in case some problems would arise in China. The whole trip was well organized. Everything went smoothly without any incidents . They gave us everything they promised . The only thing we were not happy about was waiting for 4 hours at the airport in Kunming for our connecting flight to Guilin. TCG is based in Xian, China. If you are looking for a reliable travel agency, you can contact them…”

●  These people are great! by WORMSRASCAL (US) 
 
"I love dealing with Travel China Guide. Sophie Yang/Nicole Yang and all of their collegues, who answer my many emails, are such a pleasure. Always such quick responses. No matter how silly the question is, they do their best to answer and always so promptly. Besides all of the experts here, they have helped me plan my trip to China. I was so overwhelmed at first!” 

●  We love Xian by SimpletonOzyozyozy (AU) 

 "My family of 7 booked a tour of Xian with Travel China Guide in March 2009. We were very happy with the overall service provided, especially that of the guide, Helen, who I think was at the train station for a very long time awaiting our delayed arrival from Luoyang. Because of her thorough knowledge of the various attractions in Xian, e.g. the Shaanxi Historical Museum (which I have been before) I enjoyed it more the second time round and would recommend it to be a must-see in Xian…”

●  Travel China Guide Review by rwgansley (England) 

"...because we wanted an individual experience of China, we didn't want to be part of a group being herded from place to place, and what we experienced was just what we required. The itinerary that they created for us was perfect for our needs. We certainly felt that we received value for our money…”

"I did a solo trip to China this past April and with the help of TravelChinaGuide.com, it was a wonderful trip. Everything was arranged to my specifications, including the choice of good hotels (in my price range) in good locations, arrangement for some meals, and the provision of a personal guide with driver on three days…”

●   TravelChinaGuide by bigbaddave (England) 
 
"The organisation and arrangements made by Travel China Guide were second to none. At each location, our guide and driver were always waiting to greet us whenever we arrived at an airport or railway station. We had heard that travel on Chinese trains could be difficult, but even this proved simple and straightforward with TravelChinaGuide's close attention to every detailed aspect of our trip…”

●  TravelChinaGuide by Banzai123 (US)   
 
"Our China trip took us to Beijing, Lhasa, Xian, Guilin, Shanghai and Suzhou. Although it seems like a leap of faith to board a flight to China with essentially no travel documents, Travel China Guide came through to meet all of our expectations. Their use of internet technology speaks to their professionalism and efficiency…”

"We've just returned from China, and used TCG for a 12 day tour of Beijing, Xian, Guilin, Yangshuo and Shanghai. Their service is 1st class.

"We just returned from a month in Hong Kong, Vietnam and China. I can strongly recommend TravelChinaGuide.com if you are looking for a tour in China. All of the hotels were excellent (far better than what we are used to), the guides and drivers were great and the food was superb and we were always taken to top-notch restaurants patronized by locals rather than tourist groups…”
