himebaughGreat day with Helen!We had a wonderful day today visiting Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City & the Great Wall with Helen! We appreciated that she moved our group of ten quickly through the crowds & security in the morning, showing us the highlights & best viewing places. She did a great job of explaining things & making it interesting. Lunch was included & was very good. Then the afternoon was spent at the Great Wall which was an incredible experience! Helen explained the layout & gave advice on how to explore. MoreWe had a wonderful day today visiting Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City & the Great Wall with Helen!

Fabio AUna giornata perfettaOur experience with Helen was absolutely wonderful! She was kind, knowledgeable, and made our visit to the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and Tiananmen Square truly unforgettable. Everything was perfectly organized, and Helen shared so many interesting stories that brought history to life. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide! Highly recommended — thank you so much, Helen!
Raymond TComprehensive review of China in a short visitMy wife and I had a wonderful time in China, the guides both Candy in Beijing and Lily in Xi’an were wonderful. Both we very knowledgeable and shared their comprehensive knowledge about both cities. They have my highest recommendation, and I also recommend Your company to anyone traveling to China. I only regret I didn’t have enough time to see more.
Ming Chen ChungGreat communication. Helen was awesome.From start to finish Travel China Guide - Beijing has provided a great experience. I had booked a two day tour in Beijing which unfortunately fell onto a Monday when some of the bigger attractions close. The company was responsive to any message sent here on TripAdvisor, and provided me with many alternative options. I eventually settled with a one day trip to square, forbidden city, and the Great Wall with a partial refund, which I thought was very fair.

Our guide Helen is excellent and knowledgeable. She handled everything, ticketing, crowd navigation, explanation, and time management expertly. She looked after members of our tour group, including helping out a family with a stroller. To help everyone get home on time in traffic, she even ordered taxi for some of us to get back to our hotels.
It is a great value, as I add everything up from the dedicated shuttle to the much appreciated guide to the tourist catered lunch buffet. Less
Mostafa AComprehensive Beijing TourWe went on this tour as a group of 5 friends, our tour guide was Helen, she was quite nice.
Picked us up at the hotel punctual, then we went in a very compact comprehensive tour that included many heighlights, most importantly Helen was taking very good care of the time so we kept the schedule and she also took good care if us.
Really recommend if you only have 1 day in Beijing and would like to squeeze in the heighlights.

We were able to visit the city's must-see sights: the Great Wild Goose Pagoda, the impressive Terracotta Army, walk along the city walls and immerse ourselves in the atmosphere of the Muslim Quarter.

Abbie APerfect small group experienceWe had an excellent day on this small group tour, made truly memorable by our guide, Lily. Her knowledge and passion brought the history and culture of the Terracotta Army and City Wall to life. With just six people, the experience was personal and engaging, allowing for deep dives into the stories and background of each site. Lily was attentive, ensured our group stayed together, and shared fascinating insights throughout. Highly recommended for an insightful and enjoyable tour!- Edward DXi’an Greatest Hits feat. RogerRoger was a fantastic guide. His tour was filled with a ton of historical not just about the Terracotta Army itself but also Xi’an and its time as the capital and serving as the nexus of the Silk Road. We hit the main spots in addition to the mausoleum and ended in the Muslim bazaar just in time for dinner. If like me, you are pressed for time when coming to Xi’an, I highly recommend this tour as it covers a lot while not feeling too rushed.
MarieeeeEGreat tripRoger was truly one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. He was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all of my questions, not only about Mount Huashan, but also about Chinese culture more broadly. His English was excellent, and his warm, friendly personality made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I look forward to booking another trip with the same tour company the next time I find my way back to China.

Greta NShanghai - a one day taste that is filling!My guide, Ryan, made this one day tour worth every minute. We saw some key highlights of the city (including a river cruise in the fog which made for wonderful moody photos!) but it was the information and insights shared by Ryan that made every location come alive. There were also 2 things not on the itinerary that I wanted to do and Ryan made those happen! Amazing guide and worthwhile experience.- caroline gJames: A Knowledgeable, Accessible Guide to ShanghaiWe were in excellent hands with James. He is very knowledgeable about Shanghai and about China in general - its history, traditions, and economy. He guided us throughout the main visits included in our tour, explaining things in detail at all attractions. He also provided tips on where to go at night, where to eat (especially traditional Shanghainese food), and other places of interest to visit. He speaks very good English and was available via WeChat at all times during our stay in Shanghai.
travelbudisGreat and memorable Shanghai tour with Ryan!This was our second time touring China with TravelChinaGuide and we are happy that we did. We really enjoyed having Ryan as our tour guide.

kemohoshiDefinitely worth itDid a last minute booking because I was not prepared for how big Shanghai was and was able to secure a private all day tour. Ryan, our tour guide, not only showed up early but had a driver ready to go. He took us to all the important spots on our list and answers all our questions. Zero language barrier.

Terry WAn excellent day tour of ShanghaiWe had a great tour with our guide Helen. Everything went smoothly from the hotel pick up to the hotel drop off. Helen guided us through the beautiful Yu Garden after which we had some free time to explore the adjacent shops. Then we were driven to the Bund area for an hour long boat tour on the Huangpu river. Lunch was included at a very nice Chinese restaurant and we finished the day with some time in the Shanghai museum. An excellent day out with a very knowledgeable guide.

Foo Chek Shiun DA Wonderful Day In Guiliny friends and I had a wonderful experience in Guilin . The scenic boat ride was indeed as wonderful as what we were told . Although our trip was a hectic 1 day trip , our local guide , named Oscar , made our trip smooth and relaxing with great care and experience. Most of all , he speaks good English, thus provided all of us with clear n useful informations in all expects of the tour and our needs . We all enjoyed this short but wonderful trip.
vickyed888GORGEOUS GUILINMy wife and I recently undertook a trip to China which saw us visit the cities of Guangzhou, Guilin, Chongqing, Hangzhou and Shanghai. Every city in China has its unique attractions and, no doubt, the feature which made Guilin stand out was its limestone hills/ mountains. It is easy to see why people rate Guilin as the most beautiful place in China. Of course, the 4 hour cruise down the Li River is a must and an experience not to be missed or forgotten.

Another outstanding "feature" of our time in Guilin was our tour guide, Oscar Lu. He was not only knowledgeable about the place but he also made his narratives so interesting. Above all, he was always sensitive and attentive to our needs and always looked at things from our perspective. When it was time for our train trip to Chongqing, he gave us a map of the station in Chongqing so that we would know exactly where to go when we got there. He even gave us the name and contact number of the person who was meeting us. Having missed our guide at another station, we greatly appreciated this thoughtful gesture on Oscar's part. Once again, A HUGE THANK YOU, OSCAR!

On the boat cruise to see the Leshan Giant Buddha, Bella ensured we had the prime viewing position.
From the lively Jinli Street to the serene Wenshu Monastery, Bella’s insights were invaluable. She shared her extensive knowledge of Buddhism, which was especially meaningful for the Buddhist member of our group.
Bella consistently checked in with us, prioritized our safety and comfort, and handled logistics like our onward train journey with meticulous care - even confirming stops and boarding details.
Bella’s passion for her profession is evident in everything she does. We have no doubt she has a very bright future and highly recommend her to anyone visiting Chengdu. Less
