I wish to thank TravelChinaGuide and especially Ivy Zheng for the best and most professional service that was given to me. Even during the booking stage we were constantly chatting on line and when I sent the ticket money through western union it was received promptly and acknowledged. Finally after the hotel incident, I urge everybody to use TravelChinaGuide for the best service ever.
On the train journey, it was excellent, the train was superb with a very quiet and incident free ride. The seats were luxurious and comfortable and there was enough space for our three suitcases plus hand luggage. There was food and drinks available, the announcements were in both Chinese and English and even at the stations the signs were in both Chinese and English and so there was no chance of getting lost..
This was one of the best travelling experience as well as one of the best service received and I shall surely strive to use them again if ever I visit China again. Thank you once again....More
I travelled all the way from Beijing to Xiamen (with stops in between of course) by HSR Train, it is really convenient. I travel HSR already over more than 5/6 years now and saw all developments over these years. Station are improved a lot in meantime.
Important to inform that now a day morning trains are sometimes fully booked, travellers should be informed to book on time, specially business travellers who are working with tight schedule....More
Like the previous bookings also this journey has been totally satisfactory both in term of service and for the assistance received by various operators.
For my next trip I will book thru Traverl China Guide for sure.
One thing that would be hand is some basic directions on how to get to the station from various points - such as ports and airports.
Hope to cope with you in future as there is still much I'd like to do and see in China.
Anyway, thanks a lot for all your assistance. I really appreciate this.
However, we are sorry that currently the booking make on webpage cannot be added into app acount yet. You may check the booking status via online order check or by email. Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.
Shanghai Hongqiao Station does not open for 24 hours. Based on the schedule, the last high speed ride to Fuzhou departs from 5:22pm. We are sorry that you may not able to catch this train. We suggest you to book the ticket for next morning instead.
How late is the waiting hall open? Can I leave my luggage in the locker? I will stay hotel near by for the night and catch train next morning.
Hongqiao Station will be in service until around 10pm. You can left the luggages at lockers and collect them the next day. However, the cost may charged for two days. If you will book a hotel nearby, you can keep your luggage with you in hotel during the night.
