    Everything went well with no issues or problems. It would be nice to have someday an electronic scan code so that the need for lining up at the station was negated. Thanks for your help.

    I found the train booking service to be absolutely excellent. You took something that could have been very stressful to organise and made it easy. I cannot fault anything about the service I received and your communication was brilliant. You did a perfect job and I would recommend you to anyone I know going to China. Thankyou for your help.

    TravelChinaGuide did an excellent job in obtaining our tickets! Without your advance booking assistance, we would not have been able to travel freely between cities. The booking process was extremely straight-forward and very easy. After we provided the dates and class of travel, you were able to obtain the best seats on the car (Seats 3A/C). We were able to keep our luggage nearby which was very convenient! Also, as you promised, the tickets were waiting for us at our hotel when we arrived in China. We very much appreciate the efforts of you and your team..
    The only bit of advice we can offer to fellow travelers is that they should be aware that the "red tickets"-those that you obtained on our behalf-cannot be read by the ticket machines. Therefore passengers should recognize this and make sure that they queue up in the designated line for these tickets. It's very easy since the railroad station places huge images of the blue tickets over the machine queue's while it places a huge image of the red tickets over that special queue.
    During our journeys we experienced no problems. All staff on the train were friendly and professional. We will continue to use TravelChinaGuide's train booking service in the future and we highly recommend it to other travelers.    ...More

    The train journey was a good experience. Although there where a lot of passengers waiting, the boarding was good organized and the train was on time. The business class of the trains is very spacious and comparable to the business class in an airplane. We arrived on all my journeys on time. Whenever I travel by train in China, I will book the business class again, if available.
    The booking of the train is easy and well organized with the China train app. The company Travelchinaguide helped me very fast and professional during a problem I had with my booking. I can recommend this company....More

    All booking was fine. Thank you very much. Also the ticket delivery was fine and the contact with your agency. I appreciate the seat selection choice which just satisfied my seat wish, good. I found it important to know that some time has to planned for the security checks at the train station in China, a procedure that makes sense but is unusual in the Europe train system.
