Testimonials November 2007

Dear Nancy,

Thanks for organizing the trip for us.The Great Wall was the most memorable attraction.

Hotel and food: The Crowne Plaza was a very nice hotel and we were quite satisfied with the food. Also, the food on our tours was good. We personally enjoyed the meal with the local family when we did our tour of the hutong. The family was very nice and the food was freshly prepared and hot (temperature was good).

We were several months in the planning and Karen Yang was always there to answer questions and was very professional. As we got closer to departure, we were introduced to Beijing Service and their prices and fees were more economical that your company.

Dear Elaine,

We had a wonderful trip.  It was very well organized. Claire and the driver Mr Liu were outstanding and the best during our trip. Claire was especially wonderful in looking after my mother.

The Sheraton was a very good hotel and good value. My sister is planning a trip next year with her husband and I would recommend that they contact you when their plans are more developed. Thank you for a wonderful and well organized trip. We loved it and have very happy memories which will last a life time.

Regards, Peter

Dear Eva,

You did a great job organizing our itinerary. Thank you for you help.

The most memorable tour was the two day hike on the Great Wall. It was the highlight of our entire trip. We hiked on the unrestored Gu Bei Kou section of the wall with the government guide, NaNa. We stayed at the Jinshangling Guesthouse. Both experiences were amazing and we highly recommend them for others who want a memorable experience.

Our hotels and meals were good. The best experience for us was the Jinshangling Guesthouse and our meal with them. We also enjoyed the Sihe Beijing hotel, it was clean and full of character, the employees were helpful and pleasant.

 I would recommend your company to others traveling to China. I found your employees to be considerate, reliable, pleasant and prompt. We have collegues who travel there for work and we will have opportunities to recommend your company.

Dear Elaine,

The Great Wall was beautiful, especially with the change of colors of the leaves. Guilin was our biggest surprise, as we did not expect the beauty of the area or the great smell of the trees. Both guides were very good. I think we liked Ann a little bit more because she had a warmer personality.

The hotels were very good and so were the restaurants. Our only comments regarding restaurants is that - when selecting a fixed menu dinner/lunch - it needs to match the food likes and dislikes of the people. In the beginning, many of our dishes were not things that we wanted to eat. After we spoke to our guides about this, then things changed and we started enjoying our lunches/dinners much more. The lunch at the rice terraces was one of the best we had on the trip.

All the things we did we enjoyed very much and would highly recommend to anyone else. We wish we had more time, so we could see more and not be so much ...more

Dear Elaine,

Thanks for organizing the tour for us.Public prayer and festival in kashgar day after Ramadan; Kashgar animnal market; mutianyu great wall; shanghai and shanxii museums were the most memorable attractions in our trip.

Our guides,Raiyse and Ivy; Both were intelligent, organized honest and open minded.In my opinions, the Central hotel in Shanghai was outstanding and the Novitel in Beijing was very good. The other hotels were adequate. Meals were variable-generally good Wieghur meals on the Silk Road. Acrobats were good but other evening attractions not worthwhile; Might have skipped Turpan as we had very busy trip. In 2 weeks we took 7 internal airline flights and all were excellent and uniformly on time.

Best wishes,
