We are traveling to China in October 2023 using private tour services from China Discovery. We wanted a customized tour so we used a private tour, because we don't speak Chinese so it was a bit difficult to travel alone.

From the start, from asking, they were very responsive. Vivien as a tour consultant was very helpful and very responsive in answering all our questions and emails. He helped create an itinerary and customized the itinerary according to our wishes.

The price is much more expensive than regular tours because it is a private tour but it is very worth it.

The tour went smoothly and almost everything was according to the itinerary, there were some adjustments due to circumstances. Everything is well organized. Starting from pick-up and transportation used while there.

The tour guide used was also quite good. Everyone uses English, although there are some whose English is not clear, it is still natural and understandable. Special kudos to Sarah our guide in Chengdu who helped with every effort to organize Wechat. This is very important, without it we would have experienced many difficulties throughout the tour. Also to Lobsang our guide at Shangrila, who is very good at taking photos and very communicative. Guides in other places are also friendly and helpful.

Maybe the guide in Jiuzhaigou needs to explain more about each object in Jiuzhaigou and be more proactive, but the people are quite nice and friendly.

Thank you for giving souvenirs, we didn't expect to get souvenirs.

Overall we are very satisfied using China Discovery's services.

    Rachel Grant’s Panda Volunteer Experience in Dujiangyan

    The distinctive black and white animal is a national treasure in China and one of the rarest, most endangered bears in the world. A one-on-one encounter with a giant panda is a bucket list highlight and a must-do when you are in China. The time I spent witnessing such human dedication is truly eye-opening...
