Mandy CGood Tour and Rocky is the bestWe are so lucky to have Rocky as our guide. He is very professional, knows the best point to take photos, take special care for the tour members who have special dietary requirements. He has good coordination with the driver so we didn’t really have to wait for the driver. The driver’s driving skill is impressive as well. We like the tour arrangements as well. Exactly what we wanted.

Highly recommended for her professionalism and kindness. You can trust her completely for an English-speaking tour, which is truly essential in China, where it can be quite difficult to find guides who speak good English. Less
Andrea BUnforgettable day at the Great Wall and Forbidden City with Rocky!We had an amazing time exploring Beijing’s most iconic landmarks with Rocky. He guided us through the massive Forbidden City and took us to the Great Wall, making sure we understood the incredible history behind both sites. What made the tour even more special was that Rocky is a fantastic photographer! He took so many wonderful photos of us at all the best viewpoints, so we could just enjoy the moment without worrying about our cameras. Rocky is professional, energetic, and a great storyteller.

Clare CA fabulous day in Xi-an with our guide, CarolWe had a wonderful day with Carol, touring the Terracotta Warriors, the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, the City Wall and the Muslim Quarter in Xi-an, today.
She was so informative about Xi-an’s rich history and answered our many questions with patience. She is a very warm, welcoming person. We highly recommend Carol as an excellent guide in Xi-an.
Stefanus NAn Unforgettable Journey Through Xi’an – Carol is the Best!Our family recently returned from a trip to Xi’an, and I cannot emphasize enough how much our guide, Carol, made this experience special. If you are planning a visit to this historic city, do yourself a favor and ask for her!
Carol isn't just a guide; she felt like a knowledgeable friend showing us around her hometown. She took all the stress out of navigating the crowds and truly enriched our understanding of China’s heritage.
Karan BStellar Tour in Xi’anDid the all day tour that was terracotta soldiers, Goose pagoda,city wall and Muslim quarter. Our guide Carol was outstanding!

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.

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.

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.

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!

Akshata JVery good experienceI did the 3 day Guilin tour, with this day tour included. Our guide, Monica, spoke excellent English and was very proactive in explaining the history and culture of Guilin to us. The tour company also catered well to our dietary requirements, which I appreciated. They also organised good quality hotels and a driver for us. The Li river cruise was also of high quality, and the scenery was beautiful. No negative experiences.

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
