Beijing Travel Reviews
This tour was amazing. The staff was attentive, resourceful, kind and supportive. I had so much fun learning about the history and culture. I would like to say a special thank you to my guides Helen and Jenny. They made the activities so impactful and easy to understand. It deepen my understanding and provided memories I will cherish forever. I highly recommend this to others.
MoreMy guide in Beijing was Helen, she was amazing. Helen ensured that we were able to see all the sites and minimized our wait times in the lines. Helen used strategies and cultural knowledge to enhance our experience. Helen was very professional and flexible to our needs. For example, I wanted to buy jade, so she was able to accommodate my request. Additionally, she provided information for sites that I wanted to see on my own in my free time.
MoreWe absolutely loved Beijing and we had the best guide - Tom! Tom made sure we had the best time, showed us around all the local hot spots. The whole itinerary while were in Beijing was great. Tom really took care of us during our stay and made sure all or needs were catered for - and more! Will 100 use China Highlights again - make sure you ask for Tom as your guide - he is brilliant!
MoreTom was our local guide. The itinerary was thoughtfully tailored to our needs and well-organized. The recommendations were excellent, and we visited amazing places, making the trip both interesting and fun. The selection of the hotel and restaurants was also very good. Tom and our driver, Peter, were always punctual and eager to assist. Tom was flexible, attentive, and always took great care of us. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and energetic throughout our trip.
MoreBruce was very knowledgeable polite & fun . We loved our conversations & time with him plus he chose lovely restaurants.

Xi'an Travel Reviews
A truly wonderful day in Xi’an. My guide, Susan, was superb and taught me a lot about the history of the place. We started at the Terracotta Army (of course) where I benefitted from an exhibition that only opened recently. We’ve all seen pictures of course, but actually standing next to these relics and seeing the intricate details was incredible. After a tasty lunch we headed to the Wild Goose Pagoda where again, Susan’s knowledge enabled me to fully understand the history and significance. The perfect day ended with a quiet walk on top of the ancient city wall. If you haven’t yet visited Xi’an……… do it!
MoreDuring my one week in China for the very first time, I spent one and a half days in Xi'an. My guide in Xi'an was Jenny, she was fantastic. Jenny made sure that hour short time in Xi'an was well organized and impactful. Jenny's detailed retellings and descriptions created visuals that helped emphasize my understanding of the history. Jenny was also very professional and accommodating. I fell in love with the earrings Jenny was wearing and she graciously made sure that I got a pair before I left Xi'an. My time in Xi'an was all the more unforgettable because of Jenny's kindness and sincerity. I highly recommend China Highlights tours and Jenny as a guide!
MoreWhile visiting Xian with China Highlights, I had the tour guide Jenny. She was a phenomenal guide for the site. She made us feel welcomed in the city. She helped us find delicious and affordable food in bustling areas that I would not have been able to do alone. She has such a good knowledge of the history, and I was able to understand and be immersed in the space truly. She was always early to pick us up and drop us off. She was extremely transparent about the time it would take to visit different places, or if certain changes needed to be made due to unforeseen circumstances. For example, we traveled during the national holiday which was super busy. This meant supper long lines and additional traffic for certain places. She explained in the beginning how it could potentially affect our trip so we could be prepared. I had one of the best trips of my life and that was because of Jenny.
MoreSusan was our guide and she was brilliant. She had such a large wealth of knowledge on the history of Xi'an and the rest of China itself. She was super friendly and we had a wonderful time in Xi'an.
MoreSusan was outstanding—knowledgeable, flexible, and always eager to help. She paid close attention to our preferences, making the experience even more enjoyable.

Chengdu Travel Reviews
Evan was our guide for the Panda centre. He guided us to the area FIRST where there were fewer visitors, so we got to see the giant pandas without too many other tourists. He was easy to talk to and knowledgable about the pandas, both giant and red. He did not overtalk but imparted his knowledge without overwhelming us. We really enjoyed our trip and have lovely memories and photos.

Guilin Travel Reviews
We had an awesome trip to Guilin in September 2024.I am so glad we decided to work with Leon from China Highlights . I just told him where we want to go, what we want to see and do. And he made it happen. We went to Guilin, and Yangshuo. We were treated like VIPs throughout the trip. Our tour guide was Lele , Lele was waiting for us at the train station…and escorted everywhere. Our driver is always close by picking us up from one place to the next. The hotels, the cruise cabin and food were amazing. The local tour guide Lele was friendly and knowledgeable. Private tour in China is the way to go!!!!
MoreWe had 3 nice days in Guilin and we were lucky to have Chase as a guide. He was very professional, helpful and knowledgeable. I rate his service as excellent. Thank you Chase
MoreTony was our guide and Tao our driver. Both were excellent! Tony spoke excellent english and was very knowledgeable, patient and happy to amend plans as the day went on.
MoreOur guide was Sarah, and we had a great experience with her. She took care of us from the beginning to the end of our journey, and recommended us special spots for making great photos. Thank you very much Sarah!
MoreI'm very glad to have chosen Guilin and glad to have got Lele as our tour guide.Everything was very well planned, with our comfort being the primary goal. Our tour guide Lele handled everything smoothly, I would recommend to try get Lele as your tour guide - he is a local with a lot of knowledge and gets us the best spots, tricks, pictures, etc. Very kind gentlemen, he was like a friend to us.

Tibet Travel Reviews
It was a 6-day tour from Lhasa to Mt. Everest. My guide was Choezom, who took care of all the itinerary with kindness. Our tour group was really lucky to see the sunset at Mt. Everest, which was extremely exciting.
MoreKhamsang was our guide for 2 days in Lhasa Tibet and she was our favorite guide of the entire trip! She went above and beyond to make our time in Tibet so special and memorable. She greeted us with lovely traditional scarves. She gave us a wonderful tour of beautiful temples, monasteries and palaces. She knew exactly when to arrive to see rare and unique events at each location. She is passionate about Tibetan culture and we were mesmerized by her stories. Our driver was always friendly and on time. I would recommend Khamsang to anyone interested in discovering Lhasa and Tibet!
MoreThe views were amazing and we took many photos. Our guide, Mr. Kelsang has been very attentive and helpful during the Tibet trip. He is very skillful in taking group photos of us. Give a great thump up for his excellent service :)
MoreKhamsong was the most knowledgeable and caring guide. She not only shared the history of Tibet and Buddhism; she also shared Tibetan life today as we asked many questions. She was extremely caring about the health of our group as one member suffered from altitude sickness. She arranged oxygen for her and had canned oxygen available in the van. Her English is very clear. She knew the safe restaurants and if too busy picked another to keep the day on track. I would highly recommend her to anyone traveling to Tibet.

Suzhou Travel Reviews
Our guide Brenda spoke fluent English. She was wonderful and very knowledgeable. Thanks to her explanations, we had a memorable two-day trip to Suzhou and Tongli water towns.
MoreOur guide, Brenda with China Highlights, really made our experience unforgettable even though we were only there for a short bit of time. Brenda was really knowledgeable and helpful in telling us where to find food nearby the hotel.She took us to the water town of Tongli, and shared so much of its history as well as the history of Suzhou. She also had great conversations with us -- topics ranging from the transformation of Suzhou to how the economy in China.
MoreRyan from #chinahighlights was my guide beginning in Shanghai when I landed the day before. He had a huge bouquet of flowers from China Highlights company for me when I arrived at the Shanghai airport. Next We went to Humble Administrators Garden which was already inundated with throngs of Chinese Tourists and visitors. It was a super lovely day so I don't blame them for visiting! I was wearing my own Han Fu dress so I felt very much at home because that's what the girls and women do, go to these places for photos! This garden despite all the people was super great. The features and layout including bonsai. Especially Azalea, we're stunning. Clean and neat. Worth your time anyway you cut it. Next was the smaller The Garden of The Master of Nets. Along the way Ryan explained some of the history and features of these places as we went along. Somehow both these gardens merged in my mind! I love Gardens, so I could go to these places daily! Finally, we drove to Tongli Old Town. Another places where girls and women dress up for outings and pictures. I wish I saw more men indulging! Lovely little town, I loved the layout and feeling like I had time travelled. The little boat cruise was jumping again with Chinese visitors and tourists. I really felt happy that they were out enjoying themselves after the recent past.... After the boat Ryan took me to Pingjuang Road, which is mostly a pedestrian street. He mentioned the Film Industry and showed me a monument and street tiles for all the movies that had been made there. A light lunch and walked back out of the area to the parking lot area where we began. A super lovely day with No Hassles!
MoreWe had another amazing tour with China Highlights. Cultural tour to Suzhou was so informative and fun with our amazing guide Mr Lin and our wonderful Wendy who brought us together. Many thanks to both of you! Looking forward to our next adventure.

Dali Travel Reviews
We had three adays in Dali with Daisy, a very ambitious tour guide. She speaks perfect English. She is very friendly and always helpful. We recommend Daisy for your tour to Dali. She is perfect.
MoreSpecial mention to Frank. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history and heritage of the area and the visit to the three pagodas was made more interesting with his vivid explanation of meaning of each location. He also helped take excellent photos and brought very fresh fruits (pears and pomegranates) for us to try! Food selection was great and delicious too! Importantly, he carried THREE umbrellas at all times to make sure we were never wet!

Huangshan Travel Reviews
Our tour guide Alvin is effectively bilingual in English & Chinese and was responsive & helpful throughout the trip. And we like the pace which was unhurried but efficient
MoreOur guide Jack.Fan had such infectious enthusiasm for the area, we finished on a high point. Our visit to Hongcun, the village of Langqiao with it's covered bridge and our stay in top of Huangshan Mountain was so enjoyable, even with the very misty weather. Jack managed to take us to the areas of the mountain where the views opened up through the clouds and mist before disappearing. Definitely needed more time there.
MoreTony was great and we had super yummy food. I have to say yellow mountains is definitely a hidden treasure - we saw almost ZERO foreigners and it's one of the most beautiful places i've been to.
MoreWhat made the trip even better was having Tony as my guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, not only about the history of Huangshan but also about the best routes to take. Tony made sure the hike was challenging but manageable, and he was always patient and encouraging, especially when the stairs became tough. His insights into the mountain’s natural beauty and cultural significance were truly valuable.Tony also took care of all the practical details, like making sure I had time to rest and even recommending the best spot to catch the sunrise after a long day of hiking.
MoreAlvin, my guide made this trip most memorable with special insights and knowledge about the ancient town, legends and of course Huangshan mountain. We laughed as I slowly negotiated the many steps up and down the mountain side. We identified plants, birds, etc.He even carried my day bag so I, an 80 year old had even more energy.

We had great tour in Hangzhou. Very nice city. Amazing water show. But the best of all was our guide Derek. He is excellent guide with great sense of humor. Very knowledgeable and helpful. We loved Hangzhou the way it was presented by Derek
MoreDerek and the driver were also super accommodating and took us to get a particular gift for my mom. We also had fantastic meals, guided by Derek's recs.
MoreIt was lovely strolling by the West Lake and taking in a boat trip to one of its islands. Also, a visit to a tea plantation nearby was hugely enjoyable- especially being taught how to serve tea properly! Thanks to our guide Susan for being flexible to accommodate some changes to itinerary.
MoreHangzhou is a beautiful city, with magnificent views. We were really happy with our guide Leaf and with China Highlights for organising such an amazing tour. Leaf was helpful, knowledgeable and always made our visit easy. I highly recommend visiting Hangzhou.
MoreWe enjoyed a wonderful time in Hangzhou with our guide Leaf. She was always happy and helpful, and ensured that everything went smoothly.

We particularly enjoyed: the Meijiawu Tea Village (Na Na was a great hostess); Lingyin Temple with its numerous rock carvings; the beautiful West Lake and the fascinating Hu Qingyu Hall Chinese Traditional Herbal Medicine Museum. We had a very good experience and have no hesitation in recommending China Highlights and Leaf.
