Hi Phoebe,
You were so helpful and responsive. I am glad I booked this adventure with you. Booking my one-day Great Wall Huanghuacheng excursion with China Discovery was worth every penny! The car ride was quite long and very comfortable. I was super grateful that there was some water provided because the climb was intense. My guide, Jack, was kind, knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging the whole time. The hike was the second hardest hike of my life but worth every moment and every drop of sweat. This was an experience I will never forget.
Thank you for your help!
Best,
Cassidy

Hello Phoebe,
Our tour today was amazing and I really want to compliment Sandy. He was fantastic, his English is excellent, he is very knowledgeable, and did so much to make our day great.
I did not have any cash on me when we said goodbye today (my kids had cash but I did not want to take theirs away!), is there a way I can get 100 Yuan to him as a tip?
Also, is it customary to tip a driver as well?
Thank you again for such great service. Sandy is a great representative for your company.
Best Regards,

Hi Phoebe,
We are back in Beijing after an amazing trip to Zhangjiajie, Chongqing and Chengdu. Thank you very much for your help from the very beginning. Your partners who accompanied us throughout the trip are very helpful too. I want to single out Melody (Wang Ting) for her above and beyond services that left us with great impression. We are so lucky and thankful to have her.
You have been helping us every step of the way. Without you, the trip would be doubtful. I personally enjoy working with you and will contact you for our next trip in China. In addition, I appreciate the gift you passed to us. Thank you for being thoughtful.
Have a great summer,
Lee

Phoebe,
It has been a long-time ambition of mine to visit your country and as I was invited for a work event this provided the opportunity for me to extend my stay. Your help with the journey planning ensured that I maximised the limited time I had available and achieved my objectives. The panda keeper experience day was incredible and hugely enjoyable, it was an honour to be able to assist in even a small way with the care of these incredible animals.
The local guides that were provided in the different cities were all excellent with great local knowledge and advice.
I would like to thank you again for coming along on my final evening to meet with me, the panda memorabilia was a lovely surprise and is much appreciated.
I have attached a couple of photos, one from viewing Leshan and one on the Panda Experience day, the memories that this trip has provided are truly magical.
Kind Regards
