Testimonials 2008

Hello Angela,
Thank you for all the arrengements you made for our tour in China, it all went very well but for one place. All the hotels were very good - both in their quality as well for location. The only exeption was the hotel in Guilin, it was definately not of the same category as the other hotels. A resort hotel, built in more then one level should have an elevator - this one does not have and the rooms are far from the category of the other hotels we stayed in during the rest of the tour.
All the best
Pablo Komorowsky.

Hello Angela,
I made a big mistake in my resent mail. The hotel in Guilin was perfect, the problem was with the Paradesa Resort hotel in Yangshou. As I mention in earlier mails, I am a tour guide and tour leader with many years in the business,so I can realy compare and apriciate performance - and yours was exelent, so thank you again.

Elaine,
Your company was the first company I have ever used that offered travel packages that cater to small groups and in my case for ONE person and I can not tell you how GREAT that was for me. I've been traveling around the world on my own lately but I was afraid to tackle China by myself and if I had not seen your website I still may not have made it to China. You really put together the BEST iterneray for me to see the most of China in two weeks. ALL the travel arrangements, flights, hotels, meals, etc. were GREAT. (and the fact that - I - didn't have to make the arrangements myself was a major plus) I could not have asked for anything else. ALL your travel guides were Intelligent, Professional, and knowledgable and believe me when I say they define : Customer Service !!!! And I have to tell you Elaine, I was soooooooo thankful that you assigned Jeff to be the FIRST person I met in China - After ...more

Dear Eva,
The children most enjoyed the Great Wall, however, we all really enjoyed everything! I especially enjoyed the small side trips like the Cloisonné Factory, the Calligraphy Art school, the authentic pearl shop because then you knew what you bought there was authentic. The trip to the Dragon Terraced fields with the Yao and Zhuang ethnic tribes was very beautiful and really educational. Oren liked the Li River cruise. All 3 were very good, were personable, very knowledgeable, and helpful. The kids warmed up to the first guide we had a bit quicker and she talked with us more on a personal level asking us questions too like she was genuinely interested in us and our trip. All the hotels were very nice and in a great location. We liked the Guilin Bravo Hotel the best! Perfect location for walking to see the many attractions downtown and a fabulous view! I love how organized everything was ...more

Dear Karen,
The most memorable attraction we visited was the Great Wall. The most outstanding tour guide was the lady in Beijing, extremely friendly and helpful, a lovely lady. They were all good, I enjoyed Harbour Plaza in HK best.

Dear Vee,
I'd have to say the Great Wall was the most amazing site we visited, but the Hutong tour was a close second. Emily was great, she had a lot of great information and provided the perfect amount of history and context while walking around. The Sunworld Hotel was great, the central location was perfect. The meals were good however a little more “touristy” than we would have liked. Yes, while I’m not usually the type of person to take a planned tour I did enjoy the ease and comfort that your company provided.
There is always a balance I feel that should be maintained between being a tourist (seeing all of the standard historical sites) and “living like the locals” (eating in local restaurants and experiencing local neighborhoods), I feel the experience was slightly geared towards a touristy experience, which most people would probably prefer. Traveling to China is the largest and most diverse culture experience I have ever had, truly a wonder and something I ...more
