Good morning, Tracy.

We have completed our travel in China. Thank you very much for arranging this wonderful tour for us.

You amended the itinerary 3 times according to our needs. One of the changes in the itinerary was your suggestion to add the Xingyi Fenglin Buyi Scenic Area which was an excellent recommendation. All of us enjoyed this beautiful environment, away from the hustle and bustle of the big city as well as away from the regular tourist crowds.

I understand that you wish me to provide our reviews and feedback. Here they are:

Tracy is efficient and very patient with us. Tour was very well arranged. Everything is good.

The following is what I intend to post on tripadvisor. My user name in tripadvisor is Hing2013:

“CHINA DISCOVERY - AMAZING 13-DAY PRIVATE TOUR Our group of 8 seniors have just finished a wonderful 13-day private tour to Guizhou and Guilin arranged by Tracy. From the first email, Tracy had shown her willingness to help. She had been courteous and efficient. All my requests were attended promptly. Sceneries in both Guizhou and Guilin are spectacular. Everything was well arranged. The guides and drivers in both Guizhou and Guilin were caring. Guilin guide Kenny was particularly knowledgeable. It was a wonderful and memorable trip and we all enjoyed the tour. We will book with China Discovery again and have no hesitation to recommend China Discovery to anyone who is interested in traveling in China.”

Have a good day!

Lena

Dear Rita,

The arrangements were excellent, and everything went smoothly from start to finish.

I had a fantastic experience on my Yangtze River cruise. The accommodations were clean, comfortable, and I especially loved the private balcony, where I spent much of my time relaxing and enjoying the incredible scenery. The food was good, with plenty of variety to suit all tastes. The excursions to the Lesser Three Gorges and Mini Three Gorges were wonderful, offering an up-close look at the stunning natural beauty of the area, from the lush forests to the towering mountains. Last but not least, I can’t say enough good things about the Three Kingdoms large-scale landscape performance—it was, without a doubt, the most spectacular live show I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend this cruise experience to anyone considering a visit to China.

Gala

Dear Jack,

We would like to thank you for the trip arrangement. It was very good and we had a wonderful time. Jessica, our guide, was very helpful and knowledgeable, and she took great care of us.

Thanks.

Warmest regards.

Sok Yong

Hi Leo,

Thanks for everything. I really enjoyed the Yunnan trip. Highly appreciated your tourist guides’ professional services. I will recommend your company to my friends. I definitely will come back again.

Ka

Hi Leo,

All group members are very happy with the trip and planned itinerary, guide provided was excellent with local knowledge and personnel services. With one exception, the guide at Turpan and Urumgi, seem to care more about his cell phone messages and try to rush us through every highlights, especially at Urumgi heaven lake, he is so worry that we will be late at the airport, that most of us miss most of the surround landscapes. It took us whole day to visit Heaven lake and transfer to airport, after check-in, we still waited almost 4 hours at the airport before we depart to Kashgar.

For most part of lunch and dinner provided was excellent and enough for all of us, again except for Turpan and Urumgi, lunch only with one fish dish and one pork dish, all others were vegetable, request for fruits after lunch, was told it is not available.

At this time, we are so grateful to have the service of guides that help us check in at airports, train stations.

Regards

Edward Lim

Hi Rita,

Comments from Mr Lai : No complaints, excellent tour with helpful tour guide and driver.

I totally agree that Star and Khan both were great and very knowledgeable. Khan is a very good driver and definitely made us felt very safe.

Daily start/end time comfortable as we have many days, so not that tiring with the usual daily 'long hours'.

Thanks

Yee Lan

Dear Tracy Tan,

I am You Chew Lee, one of the Group of 12.

I specifically draw your attention to the above caption.

We had been given a total of 5 local tour guides, one male and the rest females.

I would like to write to put on record two of your best tour personnels in this China Tour 15 – 27 Oct 2024.

They are Amy leading us around Lijiang and Linda providing tour assistance in Xi’an.

I rate them favourably,

01. in their ability to relate to us ,

02. in their proficiency to speak clear and good English,

03. in their capability of looking after our safety, welfare, and care,

04. in their punctuality and,

05. In their passionate love and desire to provide us with well informed knowledge of the places we visited with great integrity and diligence.

I would appreciate it very much if you could use your good office to convey my gratitude of their great performance and service provided to us.

I thank you.

You Chew

Hi Phoebe,

We had a fantastic tour in China, all thanks to your organisation and to your efforts.

Everything was perfect and everything was on schedule.

The guides were professional and friendly, specially Ben in Chengdu who was excellent. All of them knew their job and were so helpful to us.

Most of all we want to thank Phoebe for your support, promptness in responses and professionalism, which made our trip perfect

Thank you all so much, it was the best experience.

Nader

Dear Rita,

Thank you. We had a very pleasant day in Hangzhou.

Uwe

Dear April

As a whole, all of us enjoyed the fantastic trip! Our feedback as follows:

1. Bree is a 5-star guide that can communicate well with us in English and Mandarin (for my friends). We could only vouch that she is a responsible guide eg. She led us all the way up to the Red Cloud summit despite unfavourable weather conditions on that day with strong winds and heavy fog because she was concerned for our safety as it was wet and foggy. We truly appreciate her kind effort to take good care of us from the start by greeting us at the train station in her Miao traditional outfit + headwear and having a neat appearance throughout the trip. Knowing upfront that we could not take too spicy food, showing us the best viewpoints to take good photo shots, helping us to take many nice group photos and arranging us to leave the hotel early for those days when big crowds are expected at the Avatar and Tianmen Mountains. We greatly appreciate that she walked the extra miles for our group of 7 that we are comfortable and safe throughout the entire trip.

2. There are two drivers swapping on certain days. There is flexibility that at one shopping night, the driver fetched us back to the hotel. The only point my friends brought up was that the comfortable vehicle that fetched us on the first 3 days was swapped to another vehicle (which is not so comfortable) especially on the long drive from Fenghuang to Wulingyuan.

3. We are happy with the overall program that is well spaced out to see most of the beautiful sights of all the attractions listed in the itinerary. We are glad that Bree helped us to arrange and purchase tickets to a night show at Wulingyuan which we enjoyed very much seated at the center seats area.

4. Last but not least, we are happy with China Discovery having April as our travel consultant who is very understanding and flexible to our changes to the itinerary, prompt response to our emails and making all the necessary arrangements of pickups at all the arrival points. With her flexibility to swap the itinerary, we get to capture the beautiful views of the main highlights especially at the Avatar Mountains and Huangshi Village on our last few days instead of visiting them on the first few days of the trip. April was observant to notice the birthday of one member from our group that falls during the tour dates. Greatly appreciate her personal touch to arrange a birthday cake, flower and party pack for our birthday lady friend. Thank you very much for an overall smooth holiday tour for us.

Everyone of us came back with beautiful memories and travel experiences of the majestic China!

Once again thank you very much for accommodating us to such a wonderful trip.

Best regards

Jessie Ng

Dear Tracy,

Just wanted to say the trip was very successful and I enjoyed it tremendously. The itinerary/ sites visited were perfect, every single place was worth visiting. Many thanks for your patience with the many changes made to the travel plans and I really appreciated your prompt response to my enquiries. I would definitely travel China with China Discovery again.

Yours sincerely,

S. Lam

Hi Leo,

Thank you very much for the wonderful trip. Everything was organized. Excellent. The hotel was very good. The tour guide was good and care. We are very happy with your service and your arrangement. We are really appreciate your professionalism as a travel agent. and will very recommended to everybody to work with you. Thank you! I’m sure in the future we will contact you again.

Ahuva

Dear Rita,

Comments on tour arrangement:

We have had a great time in the lovely and vibrant city of Chengdu. Everything in our travels worked out well. Thanks to China Discovery and the efficient planning and support from travel agent Rita, who had put together our customised private travel itinerary which was well paced and enjoyable. She had organized everything perfectly and resolved most of our concerns promptly. The Chengdu vacation was our second China tour organized by China Discovery. Hotel stays are of above average class and were conveniently located nearby commercial centers and ‘popular food outlets. Our guides and drivers were knowledgeable, friendly and attentive to our needs. The diverse natural beauty, landscapes and snow capped view at Jiuzhai and Mt. Emei were amazingly stunning and unforgettable.

We highly recommend China Discovery to all of those who are looking for comfort and a stress-free holiday arrangement. In fact,we are already planning for another trip to China in April 2025.

K K Wee

Hello April!

We are in awe. Our China experience is an eye opener. We were made aware of the past & present culture, the history & the natural beauty of China. We are very happy we chose your company.

Firstly, I would like to thank you for your superb services in coordinating, suggesting & accommodating all our wishes & concerns. You responded in a very timely manner. You were very informative & reassuring.

In Shanghai, Sandra gave us an overview of Shanghai that made us realize how progressive this city is & what the future will be. Our driver & Sandra were literally glued to us to make sure we feel safe & taken cared of while we toured. Sandra took us all the way to the security gate.

Daniel Ye, our guide in Guilin- Yangshuo raised the standard higher. He should be cloned. A cheerful greeting welcomed us in our very late night arrival in the airport. He even called our hotel to make sure our room is ready. He gave us an overview of the tour program & what to expect in a timely manner. He gave us very important & pertinent information of what lies ahead ( making sure we understood the Impressions Sanjie Liu program ). It made us appreciate & understand more whatever was in front of us. He even made sure we felt & were treated like VIP’s. What a treat! He never left us alone while in his ward. He took us to our hotel, to all the places we were going to, to the train station & made sure we feel safe, taken cared of & everything is all right.

Mr. Moore the driver is equally efficient. A clean van, with water all the time, drop on & off point very exact & timely, he even makes sure we wear our seat belts.

Alina in Zhangjiajie was not like the other 2. Information was sparse. She was in the phone most of the time. Could be that she was calling regarding our affair but again info was sparse.

The driver also seemed to have other things to do. Wait time for him was longer. He took to the show, I made extra effort to make sure we would not get lost.

Vivian in Xi’an, was great. She is at par with Mr. Ye. Very knowledgeable, cheerful, took us to our hotel until we are settled. We did all the tours as indicated except for the trying of costume part. We were tired, it was raining & we were not really interested in trying them on. Our driver again was efficient, precise & timely.

Linda in Beijing was good too. Would have been better if she welcomed us & bade us goodbye at the airport but we understand that she lives far.

The program was excellent from day 1 till the end in Beijing. We learned a lot & the shows we watched were exquisite. Only in China! The museums, the sites, the Terra Cottas were unbelievable. The natural beauty, the rivers , the mountains… indescribable.

The train ride from Guilin to Zhangjiajie was not my favorite. Noisy, cramped space, overcrowded poor services. The train from Xian to Beijing was beyond our expectation. Linda took us to the business lounge & made sure the staff took us directly to our seats. Wide big seats with slippers, blankets & pillows. Unending supply of snacks & drinks & dinner was served. Upon getting of the train, our escort was by the train door & guided is thru the pandemonium of the Beijing station. Again we were taken safely to our hotel.

I hope I have somehow provided you with some feedback. I would not hesitate recommending you & your company to our friends & relatives. We might even come back.

Eloisa

Hi Tracy,

we want to tell you that we liked a lot the trip. Wonderful places, perfect arranging, kind and helpful guides. All was good and we thank you very much.

Best regards

Orietta

Hi Tracy,

We have just been taken to Kashgar airport by Mei. She and the other two guides have been very helpful and have also told us much about China.

The drivers have also been very good.

We have had a great time on the tour you organised.

Many thanks,

Carol & Philip

Hi Tracy,

Thank you for your reply.

Kenny is very friendly, thoughtful, knowledgable, and professional. Mr. Hwang is also very friendly and professional. We are very happy to have them as our tour guide and driver in Guilin.

My husband and I have completed the tour to Zhangjiajie, and came to Changsha yesterday evening. I want to thank you for finding an excellent tour guide for us. Adia, 黃雅, was a well experienced tour guide, very knowledgeable, friendly, considerate, and professional. We had a wonderful time in touring the magnificent Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. You and China Discovery did it again for finding us an excellent tour guide. The drivers were also friendly and professional.

Thank you again and have a nice weekend!

Best regards,

Yau-Hsin

Hi Tracy,

WoW! What an amazing trip we had to China.

Thank you so much for fitting everything we wanted to do into the 2 weeks we were in China.

Our entire trip went to plan. All the transfers and connections went perfectly. Everyone who meet us was friendly and helpful. Exceptional.

A special mention of course for Kai. He was a true host. He understood our family very well and made sure we spent time in places that interested us most. He has a great knowledge of all of the places we went and shared everything with us well. He let us have our own time to explore and then bought us back together when needed.

All our accommodation was great and situated in excellent locations.

Thank you again Tracy, you really went above and beyond.

I will happily recommend China Discovery Tours to anyone I know who is travelling to China.

I wish you well.

Jocelyn

Dear Tracy,

Thank you for ensuring our rail trip Beijing to Kaifeng went smoothly. It did, and the arrangements you made are much appreciated.

Please see my feedback to Silvia: Dear Silvia, thank you very much for your help at the Beijing rail station.

The journey in Louyang went well, and Fey, the guide is very helpful, attentive and kind to our eldest member.

Xian visit was a great success and credit to be given to Betty the guide who is excellent, knowledgeable, interested in her work, and first class story teller! She surpasses all the guides in our trip of last year and this.

Wah

Thank you Tracy for the update.

Our trip has again been enjoyable this year, guided by Kimi (Xian) and Jamie (Chengdu). The train from Xian to Chengdu was comfortable. We look forward to the Yangtze cruise starting tomorrow on Thursday 24th October.

Regards,

Timothy

Hello Phoebe,

Thank you so much. We really really loved our gift and appreciate the amazing service you have provided. Pandas are the best!

On my return to England I will write a detailed review for you.

We have really enjoyed our time in China and have had a wonderful time thanks to China Discovery!

Thank you again

Oliver Foster

Dear Tracy,

Here is the attached evaluation.

Tracy has been very helpful for planning this trip. She responds to questions promptly and is very patient. Tour arrangements were excellent. Every step during the trip went smoothly. Highly recommend your service.

Laurence

Good morning Tracy!

Time flies we are now on our last day in China. A few guides who I would like to highlight as exceptional are Mei (Kashgar), Jessica (Huangshan), Alice (Dali) and Anna (Shangrila). They are knowledgeable, good command of English, always cheerful and helpful. and provide above and beyond expectations. Alice and Anna done very good in their approach. They would give a brief introduction of places we were going and then elaborate when arrived. This set our expectations and then understanding of the places. All drivers are fine but Mr Wang from Guilin sets a very high standard.

Of course not forgetting your exceptional service as well throughout our 1 month stay in China. We escaped typhoon twice in Shanghai!

Yap

Hi Tracy,

Apologies for my delay in responding. We had a wonderful trip. It was everything I hoped it would be. The guides were great, the attractions were all great. We had a wonderful time.

Next time we will come back in a time other than August to avoid some of the crowds, but I knew that was going to be an issue going in. But the whole trip was great. I was really happy with everything.

Let me know if I can give you any other information.

Thanks so much for being so available and easy to communicate with.

Best,

Rajeev

Hi Tracy,

Thank you so much - we had an incredible trip last week.

Thanks!

It all was a very good experience. Your fast and flexible response, the organization of everyday, the guides, etc were magnific.

Thanks to you and your team we have had a wonderfull holyday. I will recomend your services to all my friends and family.

you did a great job!

Victoriano Serrano

Dear Tracy,

Last Sunday we came from our travel and we want to say thank you for that great experience!

Every day we had a lot of highlights, our guides were very kind and had a great knowledge of the subjects. Overall very we were very happy that we made this tour again with China Discovery. I definitely not the last one …

Best regards,

Claus

Dear Tracy,

I arrived safely back to Beijing yesterday afternoon after a great holiday in Guizhou. Everything went well, the program was very good and the guide Dylan very professional. The trip was an unforgettable nice experience. Thank you Tracy for such a good program.

Klaus

Dear Rita,

First of all, I wish to apologise on my late reply. We just returned from Guiyang last evening after extending our stay on our own in Chongging and Guizhou after our cruise ended. Here's my reply to your survey.

1. We did not take any tour arrangement but the group enjoyed the cruise booked through you.

2. For the cruise, I am willing to recommend your service.

3. None suggestion.

I wish to thank you for your patience when booking the cruise for us, especially when arranging for payments, which did not go through smoothly due to typo error first on our part and then the bank's part.

Kind regards

Guat Keng

Hi Rita,

Thank you for all your help! You’ve been amazing.

Stefan

Hi Wonder,

We all have an enjoyable trip. We are now exploring other places to go in China and is considering Xinjiang. Do you have any recommendations on the itinerary and advice when is the best time to visit?

Lim

Hi Wonder,

Very lucky whole journey no rain at all...The weather was good...So we can enjoy amazing view.

Stevany

Hi Rita,

Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. You and your team have been outstanding! The guide, Liz, is wonderful, and the driver is great! It turned out to be a beautiful day today and the scenery is spectacular. We’re really glad that we added this to our itinerary. Thank you for the gracious offer of dinner. Liz was very accommodating!

By the way the guide Sunny, in Dali, is very good as well as her driver! We’re really impressed. The transportation is outstanding!

Thank you again and feel free to use my comments as a promotion of your business.

Rocky

Hello Reya,

Thanks so much...we're still on the cruise & the scenery is lovely. We're looking forward to the show tonight. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously & our guide is exceptional taking care of our needs. We would also like to thank YOU for arranging this tour for us & being so very prompt in your response.

I am looking forward to more trips to China with you. Please keep in touch should you decide to move office as I would like to deal with you for my trips to China as I feel I can know you & can trust that you will look after the best of my interest.

Meng Lee Too

Hello Wonder,

I am so sorry for the delay in response. I got home four days ago and only now had the energy to reply. Yes, you are welcomed to publish my evaluation and pictures. I will send the pictures separately.

I went on a four day tour of Yucha Grand Canyon and Hukou Waterfall arranged by China Discovery. My travel consultant was Wonder Wang. I was totally impressed with the response time, the efficiency with which the trip was arranged, and the quality of accommodations along the way. The company provided a very spacious van, which made the road trip very comfortable. The driver was very good at navigating through traffic, construction, and crowds. Last but certainly not least, I had the most wonderful guide, Bruce. He was very fluent in English, probably one of the best guides I’ve had in China. He was very knowledgeable about the history and geography of the area. He was very enthusiastic about educating me on the historical significance of each place we visited. Most importantly, he was flexible and allowed me to make small changes to the itinerary. I learnt a lot from him and now I am eager to perhaps go on another tour with China Discovery. Thank you, Wonder and Bruce!

Best regards,

Emily

Dear wing zeng,

We thouroughly enjoyed our tour. Our guide Mr William Yang was very helpful and fun during our tour. Thank you to both of you. Also thanks to Mr Han our driver.

Alzan

Dear Ms. Wing,

As requested please find the survey replies:

(1) Ms. Wing, our travel consultant, was very professional and handled all our queries with patient and guided us properly to ensure a smooth trip.

(2) The car and driver at both cities were very comfortable and helpful. Special thanks to Mr. Shu, our driver at Beijing, for the lovely gift he gave us.

(3) I will definitely recommend your service to anyone planning a trip to China.

(4) Very professional service.

(5) Some of the places recommended were purely for locals and could be skipped. They did not have dual languages and were too crowded. Kindly recommend places popular and oriented to expat tourists only.

(6) If I come to China again, I would like to use your service again.

Regards,

Jaideep

Hi Wonder,

Our trip has been completed yesterday. We all are leaving 長沙 today. It was a really nice tour arranged by your company. Thank you again. Hopefully we will do it again in the future. All the best to you and your family.

Clement

Hi Jack,

My wife and I returned from our China trip yesterday. The crowds at most sites were overwhelming and something that we are not used to. However, I want to let you know that we had a wonderful time mostly due to China Discovery's wonderful tour guides!

Each guide enriched our experience with both their knowledge of the cities, sites, cultures, people, and foods. They were all prompt, patient, and engaging. They were very helpful in navigating the complexities of visiting China. My wife and I enjoyed their company and conversation greatly. I don't believe we would have had the same experience in China if we had traveled there by ourselves.

All the drivers were also very courteous, on-time, and helpful!

Unfortunately, my wife caught a respiratory illness on the Yangtze River Cruise and was quite sick at ZJJ. Our guide Tim, however, was there to assist at night and brought her to the hospital to see a doctor. Tim helped us navigate the Chinese health system, stayed with us throughout the hospital visit, and brought us back to the hotel late at night! We are very grateful to Tim's extraordinary assistance!

Although we provided a paper review at the end of each location, if China Discovery has an overall review of our trip that needs to be completed, please let me know!

Again, thank you for your assistance in all the planning prior to the trip and your quick responses to my questions during the trip. Knowing you were there to assist us throughout our journey was a great source of comfort!

Regards,

Alex

Hi Wonder

Thanks for the souvenir. We had a good time at Mt Emei, Robert has taken good care of us.

Take care!

Cheers

SukHang

Good Morning Wonder,

We are at the lunge waiting for our flight to Tokyo via Hangzhou. Just let you know. Please thanks Mary again for us. She is the best Guide that we had ever had traveling through 82 countries. We were/are so touched by her communication skills, her caring thoughts, her quick understanding, most of all her humanity. We were very lucky to have met her. For that we are grateful to the arrangement you made. She is a trust worthy human being. We had a satisfied journey.

Glenn

Hi Reya,

Loved the entire trip planning and journey. Ms Lily our tour guide was remarkable and very informative. We had a great journey throughout the trip.

You were very responsive and what can I say, our guide Lily made the trip enriched with her hospitality. Beijing is indeed memorable.

Tqvm. This is really so kind of a 7-seat private car and thoughtful of your agency. Transportation in Beijing is so convenient and your upgrade did help. Tq again.

It was indeed a great trip! Loved every moment of it.

Thank you and your agency have made this trip memorable. Tq China Discovery!

Dan

Hi Wonder,

Thanks for your prompt reply!

Our Yunnan trip was spectacular! Good mix of nature and ancient Tibetan, Hani and Naxi cultures – we enjoyed it very much!

With regards,

Richard.

Dear Jack,

Don and I want to thank you so much for arranging this wonderful tour for us. Everything has been fantastic! A big thank you for the gifts today! The Chinese chopsticks set, the Panda Player ornament, the Panda magnet, the Hand Drawings of Chengdu and the Panda postcard with your kind words are all so lovely and meaningful for us. We will treasure them. Many many thanks!

We are so impressed with China! The accommodations, the food, and the chosen sites for us to see are amazing! We will tell our family and friends to come to China and use China Discovery!

Take Care

Sharon and Don Hildebrandt

Hi Leo,

Thank you for helping us make arrangements for our trip. We had a very enjoyable time and learnt a lot about Chinese history and culture. We were also awed by the beauty of nature and man made places. The guides provided were very professional and exceptional in their work.

Thank you.

Looking forward to more trips to come.

Much appreciated,

Daniel & Michelle

Hi Jack,

First of all, thank you very much for the great job in planning our trip. We just returned home on Sunday and everyone had a great time sightseeing and enjoyed the tase of local cuisines. The transportation and hotels you've arranged were also excellent. Thank you again.

Now that we've had such a great time, everyone is looking forward to another China trip. We'll be taking a cruise in March of next year in Shanghai and would like you to help us with a post cruise tour. We would like to cover Hangzhou, Suzhou and Nanjing; plus Xiamen if time allows. Right now, we have six people confirmed but may increase to 8 again. Please help us with the details with suggestion for sightseeing and other activities. As in the previous trip, we would like to travel by bullet train if available (the Magnetic-levitated train experience would be great).

Please help us with a tentative itinerary and we can go from there.

Aloha,

JHKC

Dear Jack

Thank you for planning such a wonderful trip for us in China. We thoroughly enjoyed your country and the people were phenomenal! The guide & drivers you set up for us couldn’t have been any nicer or professional. It was a perfect experience for us. We head home tomorrow via Japan and for some reason in Japan I’m able to send emails.

Sincerely yours

John and barbara lee

Hi Shirley,

Overall. It was a good experience.

First impression on the pier in Chongqing was shocking. It was not suitable nor safe for elderly and passengers with reduced mobility. Fortunately, one of the staff noticed and assisted us with the long stairs down to the ship and also with the checking process.

The ship may have seen its glory, but it was well maintained. Room was good. TV programs in the room were limited, no English program. WIFI was only available in the area near reception and weak. Food could be improved particularly for western food options. Vegetarian might also find it limited.

Itinerary was standard. Organization of excursions was efficient. Local English guides were very good.

Personally, what impressed us most was the staff. They were very accommodating and caring that made the trip much more enjoyable. The guest relation staff helped my friend who has reduced mobility. The restaurant staff assisted us with the food.

When you have a chance to provide feedback to Yangtze Cruise management, I would appreciate it if you could please pass our gratitude and recognitions on the warm welcome as well as above and beyond assistance we received from Yangtze 3 Cruise staff particularly Selena, Vicky, and Swallow (I think her Chinese name is Wang yen).

Theodore

Hi Rita,

Activities generally wonderful. Hotel Sunshine accommodation was Ok. Service staff was very helpful. All guides were great. We really enjoyed them. Ellen was helpful, knowledgable, and thoughtful throughout our journey. Local experience was excellent. Driver was thoughtful. Difficult driving environment was always safe.

Bibiana

Hi Rita,

We loved our cruise. When I get back to the US in November, I'll reply with my answers and some photos. Thank you for all your help.

Gala

Hi, Wonder,

Thank you for your wonderful itinerary to the Silk Road. Our group really enjoyed the trip, the nice hotels and all the helpful and knowledgeable tour guides. And of course we are also thankful for your prompt response and recommendations. In fact, we are now thinking of engaging your service for our next trip to China. We plan to travel to China next year, but we do not have any particular place in mind that we like to visit, can you recommend some itineraries (may be 2 or 3) that run for 9 days for us.

We look forward to your recommendation.

Thank you.

Regards,

Don

Hi Wonder,

The tour was great, it was a bit foggy but we got some nice views :)!

Thanks for the information, we will be in the lobby by 8:50 tomorrow.

Sebastian

Hi Rita,

Thanks!

Greatly appreciated your assistance.

Dear Mr. Wang,

The cruise has been a wonderful experience for us. The crew has provided all time a very professional service.

Thanks a lot.

Javier

你好，Wonder,

挺开心的体验感还蛮好的。导游和司机都非常好，尤其是大理和丽江的导游和师傅。

Lee

Hi Wonder,

I was certainly very happy with both the guide Sandy and the driver in Chengdu. They were friendly and helpful. The driver was careful, his car was immaculate, he lent me his umbrella and always arrived promptly. He and Sandy took great trouble to find restaurants for lunch and Sandy obtained a ticket for me to attend the opera. Sandy spoke good English, was interesting, knowledgeable and good company.

Teresa

Hi Rita,

I already visited the grottoes, Zhangye is super cold now.

I would like to know if you also have trips to another countries in Asia?

Emilse

Hi Wonder,

Sorry that this review is delayed for so long! Here it is:

1. Wonder was very prompt, patient and flexible with our questions and specific requests, through the process of planning and arrangement. He kept us updated on trains and hotels, and made sure everything was going well during the trip. It was a pleasure to have Wonder as our travel consultant, and his work did result in a wonderful trip!

2. The tour arrangements were very well organized, hotels were comfortable, meals enjoyable, and the guides and drivers were helpful and kind. Thanks to our guides Steven, Elan, Alina, and Helen. Through them we learned so much about each place we visited, creating more meaning and connection for our travels. We’ll have great memories!

3. Yes, we’ll definitely recommend your service to our friends.

4. Very good travel service, very responsive to our needs and desires, very prompt.

Thank you again Wonder, for everything!

Best Wishes,

Lena, Kevin & Ariana

Hello Wonder,

We have now returned home.

We would like to thank you for our trip it has been fabulous. We have thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We wished we had more time to spend at the sites but time was always against us.

We have only praise for the tour guides we had on the trip. They were all very helpful and knowledgeable.

We are looking to return next year and will spend the winter researching where we would like to visit.

We will have no problem recommending China discovery as a tour operator.

We will be in touch again for your help when we have decided on areas of interest.

Many thanks

Kind regards

Helena & Simon Lewis

Our plan is to travel arriving in beijing and leaving from xian for 6 nights in April. If you could send information. We will most likely book in the new year.

Thanks again,

Jess

Hi Wonder,

Yes we arrived on time and everything went smoothly. Thanks so much for organising the trip, we had an amazing time and we would love to come back to China in the future. The tour guides were fantastic too and we will treasure the memories.

Kind regards,

Rachel

Good morning, Wonder

The tour was great. Henry the guide was excellent. Today we go back to Chengdu. Tomorrow we leave by train at 15 to Beijing.

How much would be a driver from the hotel to Panda base and then to train station? What if a guide is included?

Maria

Hi Wonder,

Thank you so much for everything you have done for us! We will for sure, recommend you and your company to friends and family :)

Please see as follows the completed Evaluation form. We are working on a Tripadvisor review and will post in the next few days as we are now back at work!

1. Vivien was very helpful in the early arrangements of our itinerary. She answered all the questions that we had and adapted ithe agenda to our needs.

Wonder responded swiftly to all our questions. He was very patient and understanding, especially with our delays with our China visa applications. We were very appreciative and it helped lower our stress levels!

2. The itinerary was well organised and very detailed (which we liked). We got a good snapshot of each place in the short time we were there.

3. 100% we would recommend China Discovery. In fact we have already advised people we met during our holiday in China and Sangeet has posted your details on his social media.

4. Where a lot of companies lack customer service, China Discovery had it in abundance. We could not have asked for anything more.

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone at Head Office who was involved in organising our trip, you have been a pleasure to work with. Also a big thank you for all the generous gifts and the birthday cake!

A professional, knowledgable tour guide leads to a pleasant experience. What we discovered at the end of the trip was that having a good rapport with your tour guide is very important and makes all the difference. Someone who is able to listen and understand what we expect from our day (We like to go where the locals go, where the locals eat. We like to learn more about the culture and the people who live there, it is not about the fanciest restaurant or the really touristy areas).

5. Although the itinerary and the guides tell you the agenda for the day, a rough idea of the timings would be useful at the start of the day. This way we know what we are working towards time-wise, how long we have at each place, so we can respect and flex accordingly. For example if we wanted to spend longer at one place, we can then reduce the time spent in another.

6. We would be more than happy to share some photos if you would let us know what you would like them of, as we took quite a few! Any particular place? Ones with us in them, etc?

7. Of course, we would be happy to speak to potential customers!

All the best

Pikkam & Sangeet

Good morning, Wonder

We have concluded our trip in Chongqing. Jim and driver have been very responsible and caring throughout the trip.

Thanks again for your arrangement.

咱们后会有期

Ling

Hi Juliet,

I am very happy during this cruise trip. The service is excellent. The staff is smiling all the time and manger Stephen is very helpful. But I don't understand why the tips is different between the local customers and the foreign customers.

Kenny

Dear Juliet,

the cruise was amazing!

Thank you very much for everything

Best regards,

Christoph

Dear Shirley,

We both enjoyed the cruise very much. I thought we would be having some free time but the entire cruise kept us quite busy. I have to say that I was initially quite worried as this is my first cruise but the whole journey was calm and smooth so I really did not suffer any bad effects during the entire cruise.

We joined 3 optional packages which were the 3 Kingdoms On Fire, White Emperor City and the Ship Lift. All of them were well organised and despite the rain during the visit to the White Emperor City, all of them were very enjoyable. Because of the 3 optional tours that we joined, we were also given a free visit to the ship's Captain's control room worth CNY 100.

We are very happy with the good service and communication provided by you during the pre-tour, purchase process and clear details provided making us confident to travel to Chongqing without joining a group tour from Malaysia. The ship staff were quite surprised that a Malaysian senior couple were travelling on their own as they used to receive a lot of Malaysians on group tours not privately.

We would like to express our utmost appreciation to you for making this cruise a memorable experience.

Thank you & best regards

SK Then & VS Lee

Hi Shirley,

Me and my family were very pleased with the cruise.

Service level was excellent, staff very helpful. Rooms and food did meet our expectation. Enjoyed the selection of VIP dining room.

Eric

Hi Rita,

1. The tour arrangement is comprehensive yet flexible. Because it's a private group so we have the freedom to make changes along the way yet still get to see and do everything listed on the itineraries. Kudos to the tour guide.

2. Definitely will recommend China Discovery to family and friends.

3. Just keep providing your good service...

Best regards,

Hi April,

We had a wonderful time in China. Big thanks to you for patiently hearing our requirements and drafting a perfect itinerary for us.

All guides were equally good but Lilly (Beijing) and David (Guilin) were exceptional. All of them explained the history and culture very well and helped us to explore the local cuisine. We loved it.

Drivers were really good at their job. Picked and dropped us promptly on time, safely drove us to all the destinations .

Here is our rating for the stay (5 being the highest)

• Novotel Xinqiao Beijing - 3.5

• Grand Mercure Xian Renmin Square - 4

• Guilin Bravo Hotel - 4.5

• New West Street International Hotel - 4

• Sunshine Hotel & Resort Zhangjiajie - 4.5

• SSAW Boutique Hotel Shanghai Bund - 3

A small suggestion, It could have been better if there was an option to upgrade the cruise in Guilin to 4 star cruise.

Thanks again for making our trip a memorable one. Looking forward to visiting China again through China Discovery.

Thanks,

Rose

Dear Ms Wing Zeng,

Hope you are doing well!

Fast respond time and very detail and patient to answer all my questions and resolving issues. Arrangements were all excellent and we got the Huangshan and Zhangjiajie dream tours that we wanted. I highly recommend your service to any English speaking people who want to visit China.

Thanks again for all you have done to organize our fantastic China - Shanghai/Huangshan/Zhangjiajie/Hong Kong trip!

Have a good rest of your week and a wonderful weekend!!

Best Regards,

Eric Lee

Hi Wing,

As feedback I would say that everything went as expected, no incidents, and we were very satisfied with the trip.

Esteban

Hello, Shirley

First, I wanted to thank you for your assistance in planning our trip to China these past few months. We have exchanged many emails and your support and suggestions have been essential to our holiday.

Second, we want to highly recommend Lyla as a guide in the Guilin area. She went above and beyond for us and demonstrated great depth and breadth of knowledge about numerous topics. We asked many questions and she was very thoughtful and informative with her responses. She was also very conscientious and always made she we were comfortable and prepared for the daily activities.

We cannot recommend her highly enough and we hope other English-speaking tourists are fortunate to have her as their guide.

Thank you,

Heidi

Dear Leo,

Apologies for the late reply. Here is some feedback:

• Overall travel experience: really great! Our trip to China was one of the nicest trips we have done so far, with a good mixture of culture, nature and ethnic diversity.

• Preparation: efficient and timely communication re. changes we wanted to make to the itinerary. So a big thanks to you (and Catherine before covid) for helping us to schedule this trip! We also appreciated your help in cancelling the Tiger Leaping Gorge hike and to replace it with the Dali visit. Maybe one comment to consider: maybe it is better to recommend foreigners to avoid the Chinese school holidays from mid July to end August. Especially in the Forbidden City and Terracotta Warriors museum, it was overly crowded.

• Transportation: overall, we were pleased with the bullet trains and flight connections. We did have two last-minute changes: one was the later time of the flight from Xi'an to Lijiang (arrival in the hotel after 2am - originally scheduled much earlier) and the other one was the 11hr train from Lijiang to Guilin (originally scheduled as flight). But then again, I guess these were outside your control.

• Guides: we had good contact with all of them, despite the differences (some were better in English, others had a better history background). They also had good coordinating interaction with the drivers.

• Time allocation: we always felt that we had enough time and that it wasn't rushed. In Shanghai, we were a bit disappointed that the one day sightseeing in the largest city on our itinerary was so short (finished at 4pm), with limited explanations, especially in the French quarter. For the size of Shanghai, it felt that we could have gotten a bit more out of the itinerary.

• Food: there was a good diversity of meals for lunch. Although it was clearly mentioned in the itinerary, we were a bit surprised that lunches were not included during our days in Huangshan, whereas they were everywhere else

• Hotels: although we scheduled our own hotels, we largely followed the input from Catherine and yourself, with some changes based on internet reviews. We were very happy with all of them, with a good mix of location, comfort and design.

• Shops: the scheduled visits to local articraft stores were to the point and didn't feel like 'tourist traps'. There was only one exception: we visited a tea house in Beijing. The one we went to was not the one from the program, but suggested by our guide Jamie. In the end, we paid 1020 RMB for three small tea boxes and afterwards (when we realised the amount in Euro) felt ripped off. I would strongly recommend that this tea house is being avoided for future use (on the Visa bill, it mentions Tang Tea House, but not sure if it's the correct name).

• Tourist attractions: great mix of different things to see and do. We didn't feel like we missed out on anything. maybe consider some 'off the beaten track' recommendations? E.g. the M50 Art District in Shanghai would have been nice to go to, especially given the short day we had.

Overall, we would definitely highly recommend China Discoveries to our friends, plus would consider using China Discoveries for a future China trip. Tibet, Mongolia and Hong Kong (to only name a few) are places that we would like to visit in future.

Best regards,

Jan

Dear Jack,

Thank you very much for the excellent organization of our trip to Shanghai, Xian, Chongqing and the Yang Tze River cruise.

Everything went smoothly as planned. The guides provided were excellent, Timu our guide at Xian was exceptional. All the guides spoke good English and had very good knowledge of the area and the history associated.

The cruise was also amazing. The food was delicious and the scenery was really beautiful. We have no problem communicating because there are crews on board that can speak good English.

We will come back to visit other parts of China in near future.

Once again thank you from all of us.

Alice

Dear Leo:

We just wanted to thank you for the lovely gift you gave us, as well as arranging such an interesting and engaging tour for us.

Thanks to your kind efforts, and the expertise of our guides, we feel we have gained a better understanding of your beautiful country.

Vincent & Beverly

Hi Rita,

It was pretty well arrange and the adjustment based on actual situations is much appreciated as it makes the trip smoother. Lorna as tour guide was great and well verse on the history and interesting stuff about the places we visited. I am willing definitely to recommend your service.

A bit more suggestions on "off the beaten path" places will be good.

Joel

Hi Rita,

Coming to the end of an enjoyable, enriching , and rewarding holiday, we are now at the airport waiting for our flight, thank you for arranging such a wonderful holiday.

Goodbye!

Meng

Hi Wing,

Very fast and adequate answers. Tour arrangements are very good, no complaints. I will recommend it to friends and relatives. If I come to China again, I would like to use your service again.

Have a nice day!

Best regards,

Esteban

Hi Tracy,

Last Friday we returned from our China trip. We saw a lot, and everything was well organized. We have never had a holiday before where we saw so many beautiful things. The hotels were in excellent condition, the guides were very knowledgeable, a big ten for your organization.

If we mention one thing, it is the total tip we paid. When we added up all the tips at the end of the vacation, we spent over $500 in tips. In addition to the amount paid for the trip, we thought this was a bit high. Although we were free to do so, it didn't feel right to tip the guides and drivers less.

Kind regards,

Judith and Jan van Dijk.

Hi Rita,

Finally I have had the time to write our review that you can find attached here.

We are also sending you our opinion on the guides and some photos.

I hope everything will be well for you.

We thank you very much for all and we'll certainly contact you again for our future trip to China.

Warm regards.

Ausilia and Cesare

Dear Rita,

Thank you for your concern, at the moment we do not have the full diagnosis yet. We enjoyed the trip very much and are very happy with the services from all the guides and drivers. Will give you a more detail evaluation in due course.

Best regards,

KC Lum

Good morning Rita,

That’s excellent news, thank you! Evan is exceptional, his English conversational skills is top-notch, we are really enjoying his company. The next 2 days will be most enjoyable and memorable. Thanks so much, Rita.

No need to apologize for Danny, he wasn’t bad, I tipped him and the very nice driver, 小賈，as per your agency’s tipping guidelines. In contrast, Evan’s communication skills are extraordinary, even better than an English-language guide in Beijing who took us to 慕田峪及紫禁城和故宮博物館，we LOVE Evan!

Louie and I had a remarkable day with Evan, our driver, 小溫，is a safe, steady and cautious driver, the SUV is roomy and comfortable to ride in. I wish to thank you for: 1) lunch 2) upgrading our hotel to a 4-star establishment, and 3) the cute panda bear souvenirs and the fans. You’ve done an excellent job, coordinated our entire itinerary including logistics for the transfers. Well done! We’ll happily write a glowing review of our private tour with China Discovery, once we are back in Toronto, on October 3, 2024. Thank you again !

Best regards,

Julie

Hi Leo,

We are back in our country now and enjoyed the trip very much, thank you.

Now we are wondering if you also provide ground tour arrangements for 7-8 days in Kunming, Dali, Lijiang and ShangriLa? If you do, can you perhaps give us a sample itinerary? We plan to fly to Kunming and return from Lijiang international airport.

Our thanks again and regards,

Tham

Dear Rita,

Thank again for helping us. Edwin will do it, when he is returning home(He will return home on the end of september.

Regards

Handreas

Dear Jack,

Thank you for your prompt response and swift action.

Our guide, Lobsang, has taken us to 香格里拉钦仓酒店（独克宗古城店）for our last night stay in Shangri-La and we were happy with the room and it is also just 5 minutes’ walk away from the old town.

We wish to record our satisfaction with our guides, especially Lobsang, for his attentiveness, cheerful attitude and impeccable service in making this a memorable tour. We would like to thank our driver who was with us from Dali all the way to Shangri-la for his impressive driving skills, expertly navigating along the narrow roads, giving us a nice and smooth ride throughout the tour.

Warm regards,

Su Linn

Hi Evelyn,

Yes we had a great time in Zhangjiajie & Fenghuang. Great service provided by Maggie and the driver. Will certainly consider China Discovery in our future visits to China.

Lim

Dear Reya,

Thank you for your email and follow up! The trip was very well organized and we had a great time.

Thanks a lot.

Ghassan Barhoumeh

Hi Leo,

I just wanted to say thank you for everything, the organisation and the kind welcome gifts, the 2-day Wolong tour was incredible, we enjoyed it so much with Jamie, and we can’t wait for our upcoming tour in Guilin.

Greetings,

Maria and Jozsef from Hungary

Feedback as follows:

I am a repeat customer of China Discovery and was fortunate to have Evelyn Ma helping me. I had some challenges getting to Jiuzhaigou and Evelyn was able to help me even in the late evenings prior to my travel. My guide in Huanglong and Jiuzhaigou was Gao Jing and what a delight to have her as my guide. She is very attentive and knowledgeable of the two attractions. Most importantly, she is fit as a fiddle as we trekked over the scenic trails. Many thanks to both ladies.

Chan

Hi Evelyn,

We had enjoyed our trip tremendously amid a few hiccups along the way.

The cars, except the one used from Dunhuang to the High Speed Train Station for Turpan, were clean and comfortable with good air con. Drivers were punctual and cautious on the road. Bottled water was always on hand.

The hotels were generally good and our requests for a non smoking room on a non smoking floor were met without fail. However, there were guests, with no respect to the hotel rules, blatantly smoked in their rooms with the doors opened fuming the whole floor with tobacco smoke.

Without prejudice, I will comment based on our experiences with each guide.

Frank was very nice and friendly tending to all our questions providing us with a general profile of Lanzhou. He gave us a detailed briefing of where to go and how to check in for the train.

Adam, who we spent the most part of our tour with, was quite one of a kind. He suggested a change in the order of the itinerary for better time management which we gladly agreed because as the guide he should know best.

The trip to Mingshashan and Crescent Lake was subsequently rescheduled to our final day in Dunhuang before the train ride to Turpan. We finished the tour there before 11am and Adam suggested lunch before the 2 hour drive to the train station. I told Adam that our train departure time for Turpan was at 18:00 and it would be too early to get to the station. Adam's surprisingly blunt response was "why did you request a change in the departure time? You will have to wait at the station." I explained to him that we did not request any change to the train schedule. Adam then suggested that we could consider paying a fee to change our tickets to an earlier time. We asked Adam where else we could visit to kill some time before going to the train station. He proposed the Dunhuang museum for a brief visit and "casually remarked" that he had a new group of visitors to meet at Zhangye the following morning AND the car ride from the train station to Zhangye would take 9 hours. In the end, we visited the Dunhuang museum, had lunch and arrived at the train station around 3:30pm, only then that Adam told us that you had changed the tickets and paid for the changes.

Adam, to us, seemed to be a man with an agenda of his own.

We were very happy to have Umar and Xiao Wang looking after us in Xinjiang. Umar's English was impeccable and his knowledge of the place was insightful. They pampered us with fresh yoghurt and local carbonated drink to quench our thirst in the scorching heat. We truly felt welcomed and being taken care of.

The trip would have been perfect if we could have time visiting more caves at the Mogao after the standard guided tour and also more time at the Munarge Homestay to enjoy the facilities (we arrived at the hotel around 9pm).

Great that we have ticked off Dunhuang on our bucket list and another trip to China is already in the planning.

Thanks Evelyn.

Teresa

Hi Rita,

As my trip is coming to an end tomorrow, I would like to express my appreciations to the following individuals who had made my trip possible and memorable.

1) Ms Rita Jiang for helping me to plan my itinerary from scratch and in my budgeting.

2) Mr Wine Wang for being a friendly driver-cum-tour guide in Kunming.

3) Mr Andy Wang for his untiring driving from Dali to Lijiang and Shangri-La for sightseeings.

Both Wine and Wang speak good English and are knowledgeable about sightseeing attractions and local authentic food outlets. I would definitely recommend them to any of my friends and travel buddies from around the world who speak only English.

Last but not least, thanks to the Government of China for granting 15-days visa free entry to China for tourists who hold Australian passports, among many other countries. It’s timely to open up China to the world to see for themselves a modern China blended in with history-rich ancient cities, towns and villages in multi-minority communities of Yunnan Province from a tourist perspective.

Once again, thanks to Rita and her team.

Best regards,

Ping

Hi April,

I am still traveling and not back to Singapore. Regarding the cruise, my wife & I enjoyed very much. It was very well organized & the food spread was excellent. There are wines provided during meals and service was excellent. The embarkation process was smooth & I have to commend century victory staff for a job well done.

Thank you for helping me to book this cruise.

Regards,

Mr. Yak

Dear Rita,

I am very satisfied with tour arrangements. I have recommended your company to many friends/relatives.

Overall, we are very happy with the trip. Our driver Ms Liu was a very pleasant & careful driver. I highly recommend her.

Mona

Dear Rita,

My husband and I were on the 13-Day Beijing/Xian/Guilin/Zhangjiajie/Shanghai Tour with China Discovery from 15-27 May 2024.

Overall, we had a wonderful time on our trip.

Organisation

Everything went very smoothly, just like clockwork.

Guides

In each city, on our arrival we were met by our guide who took very good care of us.

Our guides were: Beijing- Andy; Xian - Grace; Guilin - Peter; Zhangjiajie - Nina; Shanghai - Jeff.

All the guides we had were knowledgeable about their city, its history, and culture. They were also friendly, and flexible in accommodating our requests and also showed their professionalism by always being on time in the morning and during our time with them, they were always helpful, patient and understanding.

I would like to mention that 2 of our guides (Andy in Beijing and Peter in Guilin) were excellent. Their English was fluent. It was also obvious that both took great pride in their work.

Peter was very earnest, and very clear and systematic in his explanation of what we would see and do in the places we visited and he was also extremely helpful.

Andy was the best guide we have ever had. In addition to the qualities mentioned above, we found him very energetic, enthusiastic, lively and with an amazing sense of humour. He was very flexible and really went out of his way to accommodate our requests, for example, to visit a place which was not on our itinerary, but which both of us wanted to see - a Catholic Church associated with Matteo Ricci. He knew interesting little areas and eating places to which he took us for local food and snacks. He even got us some snacks when he thought we might need some sustenance. We had interesting conversations with him and it seemed more like we were spending time with a friend rather than with a guide we had just met.

Nina, our guide in Zhangjiajie, was very sweet. Her English was not as fluent, but she was very caring, helpful, very patient and kind especially when we had to negotiate all the steps up and downhill in the mountains. She was always very concerned about how we were faring, even in the type of food we enjoyed when we told her we just wanted to try the local food.

Transportation

The cars we travelled in were very nice, clean and comfortable. All the drivers, besides being very helpful, especially with our luggage, were also skilful drivers who conveyed us safely through, often, very heavy traffic.

The express speed train from Beijing to Xian was an enjoyable experience. The train was very comfortable, and the toilets were very clean.

But the 7-hour journey on the high speed train which stopped at all the stations between Guilin and Zhnagjiajie was less comfortable.

The train itself was fine although the journey was long.

For one thing, there was a man just behind me who talked very loudly for hours on his mobile phone. I could not change seats because the train was quite full.

Then, there were 2 people quarrelling at the entrance of our compartment when we were trying to board the train. They blocked the entrance and refused to move until someone in charge of the compartment screamed (right next to my ear) for the security guard. We had to literally bulldoze our way into the train which was about to leave.

Hotels

The hotels, besides being grand, were clean, comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. The one in Guilin had a fantastic view.

In general the breakfasts provided by the hotels were also excellent.

Sights

We think China is a very beautiful country with so much history, culture and nature to enjoy. Being on a guided tour, we had less contact with the ordinary people than we would normally have when we do a free-and-easy trip. But, all in all, we had a great trip and we would like to visit China again.

So we are thinking of going to the following places sometime in October 2024, after the Chinese National Holiday in early October.

Thank you.

Loh

Hello Rita,

Some of the most incredible sights I have ever seen are on Day1 & Day2.

Nothing was too much trouble for Bree. She took us to quiet places when we needed a rest from the noise.

We only ever waited a few minutes for our driver. He was good.

Jones

Hi April,

My husband and I completed our most wonderful experience and memorable time on the Century Glory Cruise.

We wish to thank you very much for all the pre-cruise arrangements and prompt replies to all our enquiries.

Kind regards,

Tan

Hi Wing,

Thank you. The pictures will be really helpful. We are thinking of maybe doing 1 day guided tour or Chongqing a couple of days after that. Can you send me some info about guided days tours around Chongqing? Either links or brochures are good.

Samantha

Thank you so much, Evelyn!

So pleased that the train has been changed. The service has been impeccable!

Kind regards

Ling

Hi Leo,

I found the form but couldn’t type directly on it. So, here are my answers.

• My travel consultant was Leo. He promptly answered all my questions through e-mails.

• The tour arrangement was perfect for my needs. It was not fully packed from early morning to late evening. I had enough time to rest and recover for the next day.

• I have already written a review on China Travel Guide & Visa News group page on Facebook recommending your service.

• Overall, I think you’re very transparent about what the tour covers. You provided a detailed itinerary that was easy to follow. Other tourists with other agencies in my group didn’t get such detailed itinerary. It was also easy to contact you through e-mail and get prompt replies.

• I think the guides should give out name cards with their name and contact information. We should also be told the name of the driver picking us up at the hotel. On my last day, I was told the driver would pick me up at noon. When I checked out at 11:30, he was already there. I asked if he’s my noon pick up driver to the airport. He confirmed it. Then around noon I got a call from my tour guide, but my local phone service somehow disconnected the call. I thought I was picked up by a different driver. It was very confusing.

Holly

Good Morning Rita, feedback as follows:

China Discovery tour of China

Managed and coordinated by Chengdu Bamboo International Tours Co., Ltd

Coordinated by Rita Jiang

Tour dates: 07/30/2024 to 08/10/2024

This was a private tour, Guide, Driver and me. I chose a private tour as opposed to a group tour to be able to enjoy and immerse myself in all that visiting China has to offer. I contacted 2 other private tour companies with the same requirements asked of China Discovery. China Discovery, Rita, was the first to respond to my inquiry. A detailed itinerary was provided by Rita for my review and discussion.

Beijing, Xi’an, Lijiang, Shangri-La, Guilin /Yangshuo

Great Wall, Forbidden City, Terracotta Warriors, Ancient City, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Blue Moon Valley, Naxi Village, Shigu Town, Songzanlin Monastery, Pudacuo National Park, Li River Cruise and Reed Flute Cave to name a few sights.

3 High-Speed Train rides, 1 flight all arranged by Rita. Guides were a big help in teaching me how to navigate and understand the train stations.

All the hotels were great and choice of restaurants around hotels were good.

Visiting China was a retirement goal, and my expectations were exceeded. I recommend a private tour for touring China.

China Discovery, Rita, along with my guides, Andie, Waldner, Li, Aten and Daniel and the drivers were great. Communication was good, and the historical knowledge of guides was impressive. The effort by the group is second to none.

Gerald

Hi Evelyn,

Thanks again for the wonderful trip! The whole vacation was amazing. The hotels were great, the guides were great and the sights were great.

We really enjoyed the whole trip. Thanks for helping us with this amazing experience.

Kind regards,

Erik

Hello Evelyn,

Thanks for making the tour arrangements - we are now back to Singapore - we really enjoyed the tour of the ancient cities of Chengdu and Xian and Luoyang and appreciated China natural beatify and heritage. See you soon and hope to make another trip to the other remarkable places.

Venkta

Hello Wing

Thank you very very much for all your support and arranging for our family a wonderful and memorable trip in china.

I will definitely send my feedback once i go back to my country on 19th.

Regards

Ahmed

Hello Evelyn,

It was a more than great Tour.

I learned a lot of things.

Thank you all!

Kind Regards,

Marc

Dear Evelyn,

Thank you very much for your efforts, the outcome exceeded our expectations. Under the bottom line we are very happy about your service and the service from Chengdu Bamboo Tours. Here are some comments:

- all requests and questions have been answered pretty quickly

- all local guides and transfers have been on time, the transfers have been convenient

- the guides in general had a good skill of English and broad knowledge about the booked tours

- we can strongly recommend your / Chengdu Bamboo agency further

- we have hardly anything to improve

- breakfast facilities in the Yangtze Boutique hotel were small and quickly overcrowded

Again, excellent job - Thank you for everything!

Best regards,

Michael

Dear Ms Win Zeng,

We would like to thank you for the great job you have done for us. You always reached us promptly, patiently and did the best for us. We were satisfied with what you arranged for us. We will definitely recommend you to our friends and if we go to China, for sure we would use your service again especially since we have found out that most people do not speak English. Your service helped us a lot. You have good people working for you. But we prefer anonymous. We find it a pity that most people cannot speak English because the Chinese are friendly and we would have liked to converse with them. We are in Bangkok at present and tomorrow we are flying to Germany and bring our sweet memories of China with us.

Best Wishes,

Monica and Nikolaus

Dear Wonder

We have returned from our holiday, and I can report that we had an amazing time. Here are our thoughts:

1. You and Vivien have been incredible from the start, very patient, quick to reply to all our questions and very good at accommodating us. The tour itself was very well organised.

2. The driver Wang 师傅was very patient and helpful with the luggage, and he was a very calm and competent driver throughout. Mary was excellent as a tour guide, very knowledgeable about Inner Mongolia, very passionate and very helpful. She was absolutely spot on with all her recommendations. Hotels were well-chosen, in convenient locations. Highlights for us include: the bonfire party on our first night on the grasslands, the spectacular show at Huanghuagou, and camel riding and sand sliding. We’re very pleased with this tour as a whole; we feel we’ve been able to visit places and take part in activities that we would not have been able to experience on our own.

3. I would like to recommend your company, Absolutely. We are also considering taking part in more tours with you in the future.

Many thanks and best regards

Ming-I

Hi Rita,

Thanks for all the arrangements made and also compliment to the professionalism of the driver throughout the trip.

Cheers

Cheng

Hello Wonder,

Our kids really enjoyed the trip. They were very delighted and thankful for the nice experiences and they loved China a lot which makes me happy because I love this country a lot as well. So thank you for your efforts to make this happen.

Lukas

Hi Wonder,

We very much enjoyed the cruise thank you. Especially made welcome by Austin on the boat who looked after us English speakers extremely well. The room was comfortable and all the activities very appropriate and well organised. We also used the swimming pool on the boat twice or more times.

The documentary about the three gorges shown in the cinema the night before our visit there was excellent in helping us to understand what happened with the dam. It could have been better publicized but we managed to get there and really enjoyed. However the visitor site of the dam needs to have more English captions for us to really appreciate. We were surprised how little English translation there was at the biggest dam in the world.

The place where you embark on the boat in Chong Qing was more difficult than I had imagined - there was nowhere really to park. Not sure what you could do as a solution for that?!

Thank you for arranging for us,

Wang

Hi Wonder,

It has been a most enjoyable experience! Thank you!

Best regards,

Bart Roelofsen

Dear Vivien,

Now our vacation is over again. It was a very nice three weeks in China, but it was also very tiring because of the heat. The trip with the Victoria Jenna was excellent. Everything was well organized, the care from the staff and tour guides, the cabin and the food were impeccable.

We are very positively impressed by China and its development.

We wish you and your child the best of health.

Kind regards

Ursula and Dieter Brose

Hi Dear April,

Thank you for following up with us. Crystal and I had a great time on the trip. The trips you helped plan and booked for us went really well as planned.

The tour guide David and Sally are both very friendly and knowledgeable about the tour sites. The Chongqing Metropolitan Hyatt hotel is at a very nice location, walking distance to the Hongya Cave. We enjoyed the great night view of the cave, river and Chongqing. Crystal even did customized photo shoots.

The cruise ship Century Oasis is very nice as well, including nice room, delicious food, spa, top deck and their staff are very friendly and attentive to the guests. The off shore attraction tours are well organized, and we joined the English group. Crystal is amazed at the Feng Yan San Guo Show, very much interested in the Chinese culture. We enjoyed the great views along the river, and got lucky in seeing the water discharge of the three Gorges Dan. Overall we had a wonderful tour and cruise! We really appreciate your great service, excellent communication and very attentive to our needs.

Annie

Hi Rita,

So sorry for my late reply, I’m finally back home. I just wanted to say a huge thank you for organizing my tour, you were just amazing and I had the most fantastic time. Ben was absolutely amazing as well. And thank you so much for my beautiful gift. I hope to come back to Chengdu again, I did not have enough days there, and I would book with you again. Can you please pass on my thanks to Ben as well.

Kindly

Danielle

Hi Leo,

Just landed in Paris! Our beautiful trip unfortunately came to an end. We are very happy about what we did, we saw and about your organization and arrangements. Eileen, Kenny and the drivers were all very professional and kind. An amazing trip, amazing culture and most of all amazing PEOPLE.

Xie xie for everything

Laura

Hi Rita,

We’re sitting in HK airport after the most amazing and fantastic trip. Thank you so much for arranging everything, it went as smooth as clockwork. Frenetic and non-stop, we have seen some of the wonders of the world, all made possible and enjoyable by your amazing team! I will write when we get home in two days, just wanted to say a huge thanks.

Ashley and girls!

Dear Rita,

Back in Sydney at last!

The tour ran very smoothly and provided some special insights into the history, life and scenery of Inner Mongolia. We were met at the Hohhot Railway Station on time; the itinerary was full but manageable and unfolded as promised; the hotels were clean and comfortable; and our guide (Cherry) and driver were fun company and made us very welcome, despite the obvious language barrier. The only minor hiccup was that our tour started on a Monday and was meant to take in the Inner Mongolian Museum that first day, but museums in China are generally closed on a Monday. However, we were able to rearrange the last full day of the tour to fit in the Museum, which is well worth visiting.

I am happy to recommend your service to others.

Cheers,

Anonymity

Hello April,

we had a very good trip in Guilin and Yangshuo!

Thanks for the perfect organisation! We had a very good time in Zhangjiajie with Abbi. We are on the train back to Guilin now and then to Hong Kong a long train day today.

Legein

Hi Wonder,

That's just to let you know that we had perfect days. Everything's working out perfectly (and yes, we did see the Anyang museum)

No prob to skip the history museum, and we look forward to focus on the archeology museum.

Henan museum is fantastic.

The Xi'an Shaanxi Archaeology Museum is fantastic. There are simply too many great places in Xi'an, one could stay for 2 weeks and never be bored.

Cathy is a wonderful person, we are having a great time. Gulnur provided marvelous help, btw. Can't praise her enough. She looked up everything on our last day with her, phoned several people until she had reliable information.

Peter

Dear Leo,

I am sending you herewith a quick feedback and review first.

Destinations: Xian – Tongchuan -Mausoleum of Yellow Emperor – Hukou Waterfall of Yellow River – Wang Family Compound – Ancient city of Pingyao – Xingtai – Taiheng Mountains – Luoyang – Longmen Grottoes – Wangwu Mountain – Yuncheng – Xian

Dates: 19. May – 2. June 2024

Trip Type: Traveled as a Group of 8 (4 from Germany, 4 from Hong Kong)

Tour customized by: Leo

1) Our itinerary is complicated and unusual, with places which are not frequented by foreign tourists at all. We contacted a few travel agencies during the planning. China Discovery was the only one which responded quickly, co-operated very efficiently and organized the whole tour to our greatest satisfaction. Many thanks to our travel consultant Leo, who was always fast in answering my questions, ready to make suggestions and offer solutions. It was really a pleasure to work with him. With our experience this time I would have no hesitation in recommending China Discovery (operated through Bamboo International Travels Ltd. In Chengdu) to travelers interested in visiting China.

2) Bruce from Xian was our guide throughout the trip. He speaks excellent English, was very knowledgeable, helpful and attentive to our needs, also very patient in waiting and looking for those who didn’t stay with the group! He worked together well with the driver, navigated him on very difficult roads sometimes. We added extra spots of interest to the itinerary at short notice and both guide and driver were very cooperative regarding our requests. We did cover some adventurous stretches not foreseen in the itinerary. Thanks are due to them that the realization of our wishes was possible. Our tour bus traveled over 4 provinces. Leo made sure beforehand that everything went smoothly and it did.

3) All the hotels were of high standard. The one right next to the Hukou Waterfall, in the heart of ancient city Pingyao, in the middle of beautiful Wangwu Mountain are especially recommendable.

4) We ate very well, almost too much! The daily budget for meals (one meal daily was included in the tour price) could be less.

5) Reminder for travelers on trains: the check-in point at train stations is similar to those at airports. Make sure you do not have any sharp object in your hand luggage.

Thank you again for the wonderful trip! We will come back for your services next time.

With warm regards,

Helen (Germany, Hong Kong)

Dear Wonder,

The tour was perfect! Tour arrangement, including the drivers,tour guides,hotels is Excellent. I would definitively recommend your company!

Wonder, thank you for everything!

Best regards,

Pablo

Hi Rita,

I just came back for aaall my trips. Thank for this GREAT trip.

Marisol

Hi Phoebe,

Sorry for the late answer. We realky enjoyed the tour. We couldn’t see sunrise and sunset because it was very cloudy but nevertheless we loved our stay in Yuanyang.

Thank you,

Nicoletta

Dear Wonder,

We would like to thank you and your team for making our trip to China so special and enjoyable. Every tour guide and driver we met were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and professional.

We had a fantastic week in China exploring some of the amazing sights as well as tasting the different regional foods.

I would also like to that you for your quick replies and ensuring we were fully aware of our itinerary and any changes.

When we come to China again in the future, we would use China discovery again and will recommend your service la to our friends.

Kind regards

Dan

Hi, Wonder!

I wanted to write you as soon as I left Guilin because I had such a WONDERFUL time in China thanks to you, but we still had Hong Kong and Tokyo after Guilin, so I am finally writing you now that I am settled back in the USA.

Wonder, everything is China was amazing! Thank you thank you for ALL of your work and help in planning our trip in the mainland. I also appreciate your ease and willingness to make changes at the last minute that suited my family the best. It all worked out perfectly. Each tour guide was phenomenal: Yu, Cindy, Jim and Peter. I would highly recommend all of them. Each city was so different and we learned so much at each location. The history was so fascinating. My sister is already saying that if she goes to China, she is using you. Haha.

I will most definitely write a glaringly positive review on Trip Advisor about you and China Discovery as well as each of the tour guides (the drivers were all great also). You all deserve the praise and may your company continue to stand out. You are the best and thank you again on behalf of my whole family on making this trip so amazing and memorable.

Take care,

David

Hi Wonder,

Apologies for the delayed reply. The tour was very pleasant! We enjoyed ourselves.

I am very pleased with the response times, and you has also gone the extra mile to accomodate our plans whenever we requested any changes.

The tour guides were very professional, open, and friendly! We really enjoyed their company. The drivers kept the vehicle clean at all times and drove comfortably. I have one suggestion regarding hotels: We were allocated to a smoking floor in our hotel in Kun Ming. I believe the experience would have been much better if we were asked of our accomodation preferences (smoking / non-smoking). I had a very sensitive nose and was sometimes uncomfortable in the room.

I would recommend the company to others.

Clarissa

Hi Wonder,

We enjoyed our excursions very much, and our guides were wonderful. Thank you for your help with organising it, and also Vivian.

with best wishes

Claire

Good morning Wonder,

Thank you for your message.

Overall, both tours were most enjoyable, and the guides were well-informed and helpful. Mary, our guide in Inner Mongolia, was particularly pleasant, informed, and always present when needed.

Best regards

Linda

Hi Leo,

Just a quick note to say Thank-you. Our trip to China was fantastic. Everything was better than we had imagined. The guides you had assigned to us were great. They were each unique in their own way but all were informative, caring, funny, attentive. We appreciated the personal touches such as helping with check-in at the train stations and airports, accompanying us to our hotel rooms to make sure they were ok, suggestions for restaurants and shows, and even acting as professional photographers. We will never forget how important they made us feel. Most of all, how welcoming we felt. Thank you again. If we ever make it back to China, we will definitely be getting in touch with you and Discovery China.

P.S. Thanks for the post card and the gift.

Jane

Hi Rita,

Thanks for the follow up.

We are very happy with our guides and driver.

We certainly would recommend your services to people who are planning to visit China.

Maybe one suggestion for foreigners that visit China for the first time: let them know about communication and payment in China. They are done via specific Chinese app/ softwares that sometimes requires a local help (e.g. hotel help desk)

Thanks Rita,

Yves and Chloe

Hi Rita,

Yes, we are safely back in Shanghai. Once I’ve had a chance to sift through the photos, I will send you some of the good ones.

Josh

Hi Phoebe,

Yes we did see Fubao for 2.5hrs together with the Evan.

Thank you so much for the arrangement

Eric

Hi Phoebe,

Excellent! We have a great day with Oscar today! Looking forward to tomorrow!

Danny

Hello! Leo

Our trip was beyond wonderful. Everything was so thoroughly organized, the tour guides were incredible (especially Linda in Beijing, Kimi in Xi'an, and Kenny in Guilin), vehicles and drivers safe and comfortable, and hotels centrally located in each city, comfortable, and clean. The sites were all wonderful and there isn't one I wouldn't recommend. My mom and I have both fallen in love with China and appreciate yalls help and support during our trip (especially with all the snafus of losing my passport and getting sick). I will definitely recommend yalls services to family and friends, and when I come back to China will be contacting yall again

Rachel

Hi Rita,

The tour was excellent. Kevin was the best tour guide we could've asked for!

Best regards,

Smriti

Hi Tracy,

We are still recovering from our 21 day trip. We have thousands of photos and videos to go through, and we are still processing in our minds everything that has happened. My family and I will have lifelong memories of amazing experiences. This trip has allowed my children to discover their cultural roots as Canadian-born Chinese. Thank-you for arranging the trip for us. This would not have been possible without China Discovery's experience and your expertise in designing custom tours. We went to amazing sites, learnt about the rich history, experienced Chinese culture and art, tasted the variety of regional foods and talked to locals. This was exactly what I was hoping for. We would not have had the ability to see and experience all this without your exception guides: Kevin, Kai, Ben, Julia, Peter, and Julin. Your guides and drivers made us feel at home and minimized our stress.

Best regards,

David

Hello Tracy,

I had no time to write.

Both tours were very good.

The hotels were very very good with good location.

The restaurants – most of them had very good food. Not all of them looked very very nice but it was good enough. On the second tour it was better espiecialy in Shanghai. The restaurants should be organize close to the place where we visit. Driving 40-60 minutes to the restaurants wan inconvinient.

Bus – very good, no problems at all about quality. The only problem was long time that we had to wait for the bus everytime in Beijing and Xian.

Guides:

Jamie in Beijing – very good and very helpful. He was really taking care of us.

The girl in Shanghai on the first tour – was ok, but he was very shy and had problems with time mannagment.

Jimmy in Shanghai – he was very well organized but not so helpful and he was money oriented

Bruce in Xian – he was good and helpful, quite good organized.

One more ime thank you for your help and whole organization.

I will come back to you with request for qotation for our classical tours.

Best regards

Wojtek

Hi Tracy,

Trip was great. Ran very smoothly. Our guides were all knowledgeable and could speak a decent amount of English. Our ranking of guides, even though all were good, are 1) Kai 2) Kenny 3) and 4) Lily. Even though we have Lily as the last, she was great, singing traditional folk songs and taking pride in her work on educating us on the area and the traditions/history. Kai was just outstanding. His English and knowledge of history were top notch.

We gave our feedback to each of the guides in their cities. Hopefully you received those.

We’re not big shoppers so we enjoyed a little extra “free time” in places, like Guilin, to hit the pool and just relax in between big itinerary days.

The only complaint we had was in Zhangjanjie where our hotel wasn’t by anything at all. We had a day we needed to find dinner and our hotel restaurant was closed to a private conference. We walked a bit to find something but ended up buying cheap stuff at the small market next door. Would’ve been nice being closer to town where multiple options are available.

Overall, such a great trip and well run by you and your company. Thank you very much for a once-in-a-lifetime trip. So glad we got to do it, even if it was 4 years later than planned….

Thanks,

Mike

Dear Tracy,

Just arrived back in my apartment in Beijing after two wonderful days in Zhangjiajie mountains. The guide Lucky was Excellent, professional and very kind. She deserved grade 5 in my review. I will definitely recommend China Discovery and Lucky when I hear colleagues or friends planning to visit Zhangjiajie mountains.

Have a good evening.

Rostell

Hi Tracy,

The overall coordination and flexibility was really appreciated. The hotels were comfortable and the meals were delicious. Both guides, Peter and Vicky, were extremely friendly and easy to communicate with.

I would love a bit more sharing of history, the people, simple cultural difference (between the one group of people and another, how long have they settled in the area), the significances of the places we visited, what the government is doing to preserve the landmarks.

Since it was their first time the group went to China, it would be nice to learn more about the history, even the changes in the last 10-20 yrs in China, how it impacted the people. It’s always nice to learn how the lives of local people are.

It was a fantastic experience and I would recommend China Discovery to my friends.

Best,

Calina

Dear Tracy,

Everything was great and well organized...

Thank u

Fatimah

Dear Tracy

We returned yesterday from the trip.

Everything was wonderful, the guides were excellent.

Thank you for everything.

Boaz

Dear Tracy,

Sorry for the late reply! I’ll just start saying that we absolutely loved the trip and China. It was one of the best trips we have ever done. Your country is beautiful and fascinating. I can’t wait to visit again!

You are very helpful and professional. The tour was tailored to us and our interests, day by day. The guides were also flexible in accommodating our requests day by day. We were never taken to tourist traps. The restaurants were clean and the guides would help us order based on our dietary preferences.

We were really happy with China discovery, in all aspect of the trip. You were very good in organizing the tour based on our preferences and accommodating our requests. You were also very kind to recommend we change our visiting time to after the May national holiday. The guides in all cities (Beijing, Xi’an, Chengdu, Shanghai) were very knowledgeable and looked after us very well. It felt like travelling with a friend! I am willing to recommend your service to others!

Best wishes,

Nura

Hi Rita,

Sorry for the delay, I thought you might like to look at this review and see if you would like to use it.

I have also included some photos that you can use if you want.

Review as follows...

If you are reading this review you are probably wondering should I use China Discovery and is it legit. The answer to both is a definite yes. Coming from New Zealand my wife and I along with our 16 year old daughter did a 28 day trip. We tailored our itinerary (with the help of Rita) and had a private tour. It was all fantastic and super organized. We loved the flexibility that our tour gave us. The local guides knowledge ensures you get the most out of each day and gives you a great insight into the area and local lifestyles.

I would highly recommend them for anyone who wants a great time traveling in China. We certainly did. Many thanks to Rita and all the guides who made our trip so awesome.

Cheers Dave, Tracey and Amber.

Hi April,

Absolutely fantastic, can’t fault. On board food was awesome and me being vegetarian they even made me special meals each day. Staff were wonderful. I also had laundry done, no issues and very good price. Bar was well stocked and well priced. I also got a foot massage and my daughters hair washed and blow dried also value for money.

Concierge did only once on check in to offer an upgraded package for food and cabin. Then never asked again which was perfect.

Porters hired by ship in Chongqing tried to charge me 100rmb for their service but the English speaking concierge told them off very sternly.

Shore excisions included were awesome. I only did 1 optional which was the show on the second night which was absolutely amazing, it felt like I was in the show.

Only complaint is the ships announcements came into cabin speakers.

Dane

Dear Mr. Wonder Wang

We are very satisfied and happy to go with the cruise ship.

Everything is well prepared, the staffs are all professional.

Thank you very much

Vince

Hi Wonder,

The tour is great,we enjoyed it very much,as well as the cruise.

I could like to thank you for this wonderful tour of ours. Everything is just perfect,you as our consultant, you are really great, you really did your best to arrange it the way we wanted.

The tour guides and the drivers are friendly and courteous, they are really good in what they are doing.

The accommodations are nice and clean,location is good, hotel's staff are nice and helpful.

Definitely we will recommend your company to any of my friends who is planning to visit China, and me and my daughter are planning for another tour.

Thank you so much.

Sincerely

Ruby and Gigi

Hu Tracy,

Yes I think overall is good. For the hotel, guide and driver and car especially we like hotel shangrila, hotel in Turpan, Guangzhou westin.

The food is ok, but because we dont eat too spicy food, so maybe limited.

But the vegetable is good.

Thank

Fentty

Hi Rita,

The trip was fantastic and there were no problems. I made a couple of mistakes, but the wonderful guides were of great assistance.

The tour arrangements were excellent. All connections and meetings with guides went perfectly.

I would recommend your service to others with an interest in China.

Cheers and thanks….and I may book another tour next year!!

Wilson

Hi Tracy,

Sorry, didn’t respond to you earlier. Since the China trip, we are trying to catch up with everything that we held off for month.

Here is the list of our ranking of each Tour Guides we had in each city.

Guilin - Sharon

Beijing - Linda

Shanghai - Liqi

Zhangjiajie - Nancy

Xi’An - Lily

All the Tour Guides and Drivers provided the service that we needed. Our family really appreciate their hospitality and enjoyed our visit in China. Everyone was an excellent representative of their city and an ambassador to the visitors. They make us proud as a native Chinese, who have excellent command of the English language. The professionalism and knowledge on each city’s history is outstanding. I know our kids have learned a little more about Chinese historical facts and their heritage. For those who speaks Cantonese, Grandpa is very thankful.

Above all we rank Sharon in Guilin as the best of our guides along with the driver. Sharon was very attentive, detailed, and caring of our group and especially grandpa who’s over 90 years old. In addition, she was very open to exposing us to local cultures and food. We thought she went above and beyond her duties and responsibilities.

Overall, thanks much to you and to the China Discovery team for a very memorable trip.

Kin

Hi Tracy,

Apologies for the late reply.

We thoroughly enjoyed the 3 days at Bifengxia. We arrived with an open mind, so I cannot really say that the program met our expectations or not. We learned a lot about the animals, which was great and we spend a lot of time observing them, which was fun. The program itself was more like a 3-day VIP arrangement with backstage passes rather than a volunteering program. Volunteering sounds like you have to make an effort and we were not really put to work, we were treated like guests, which is of course always positive. You prepared us well about the restrictions on interaction with the panda's which was much appreciated, and we did not expect much interaction for starters because we were visiting a research base, not a circus! The panda base itself is a tranquil site and we had a lot of people approaching us for a short conversation, really nice.

If you would ask me if I had any suggestions for improvement, then I do not really have an answer. We enjoyed the hospitality of the hotel, really nice place with a beautiful room, friendly staff and good food. Your team added to the fun and made the visit more memorable when we managed to add a visit to an old village on the last day.

I would recommend this program to anyone who is interested in a laid-back panda learning experience in a mountainous area in rural China.

Hope this helps!

Jeroen

Hi April

We are glad to have chosen to Century Oasis. The ship is new, spacious and clean. Staff were friendly and provided excellent service.

Thank you for checking with us and I'm really pleased to have booked with Yangtze River Cruises and for your prompt service.

Regards

Heong

Hi, Wonder,

Thanks a lot for your message, everything went well, it was a great tour and the guides all did a great job too.

I think some of the experiences there are already very much tailored to tourists especially from mainland China (e.g. the Karez system, or the shops in Kashgar old town), so I was happy that the guides were ready to pursue some additional activities which were not on the initial itinerary - like the Emin Minaret in Turpan, which was probably my favorite place of the tour. Very beautiful and peaceful, and practically no other visitors.

All the best, and looking forward to the next trip.

Marco

Dear Wonder,

Thank you for the great arrangements for the Fujian tour in June. My family totally enjoyed the Fujian trip, the sights and great food.

Best,

Wai Nam

Mr. Leo Li,

I can't express enough what a wonderful time we had in China. You made me look like a superstar to my wife and sister-in-law. All of the guides were wonderful; especially Eric in Beijing and Evan in Chengdu. Evan knew EXACTLY when and where to take us to get the best views of the pandas! Eric seemed to take a lot of pride in his city of Beijing and wanted us to see and try everything. He was very nice, accommodating and generous. He bought us many street snacks just because he wanted us to try them!

All of the excursions you had scheduled were outstanding. There wasn't one that we said we could have skipped. The ones that were particularly great were the Great Wall, Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, Terracotta warriors, pandas, and one of our favorites was the cooking class at the museum in Chengdu. The museum tour guide was a delight and an excellent instructor. We really enjoyed Liqi and Shanghai.

The hotels were all just great. They really were nice. It was hard to pick a favorite. The Buddha Zen Hotel was very nice and in a great location but the breakfast was a little weak. Probably the worst of the trip but still acceptable. The hotel in Shanghai was first rate with the absolute best breakfast of the trip.

All of the train and plane transfers went smoothly. We had no problems meeting our guides at each location and no problems boarding to go to the next city.

We felt comfortable with all of the drivers. The cars were all clean and comfortable. Traffic in your cities is HORRIBLE. I could never drive in China! I had a hard enough time just making sure I didn't get run over by a scooter when I was walking!!

I think that about sums it up Mr. Leo Li, Thank you again for making this trip a once in a lifetime experience for my family. And throughout the planning process, you were extremely helpful and always responded promptly. I know we made quite a few modifications to the trip but you didn't seem to mind at all. Thank you for that.

Take care sir,

Kelly

Dear Leo,

It’s good to hear from you. We had the best travel experience in China. Your local guides were all excellent and highly professional with extensive experience as guides.

Laurie, Mike, Derek, and Jessica are all top-notch tour experts. As a native of their regions, they are very knowledgeable in local as well as all Chinese history and culture. Their Chinese and English discussions are clear, concise, and comprehensive on local traditions, customs, and landmarks. Their restaurant recommendations on local cuisines are delicious. We are very lucky to have such a delightfully accommodating team! We deeply appreciate your outstanding planning and itinerary, and we will return to visit China.

We found the business-class tickets very beneficial, and the BC Lounge were highly effective in making our travel smooth and worry free, e.g. we did not have to wait in line as the attendants escorted us to the train car directly.

Also, it would be helpful to recommend some travel related apps, i.e. WeChat, Alipay, GaoDe (map guide), Didi or other taxi. It was difficult for us to access American apps in China, such as Google, E-mails, etc. Hotel Wi-Fi were not reliable.

Let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you!

Fondly,

Yolanda and Eric

Hi Phoebe,

We are very happy with the tour.

You answered my E-mail fast and patiently. local guide and driver were excellent, we had a great time. I actually already recommended your company to 2 of my friends.

Best,

Nan

Dear Wonder,

The tour was amazing but 2 days were not enough, next time I book more time.

Regarding your questions, everything was perfect.

Thank you

Francisco

Dear April,

Sorry for the late reply. I was tied up with my pending work after the leave.

The tour is nice. We enjoy it very much.

Both the guide, Mr. Kenny and the driver, Mr Huang are nice and friendly guys. They have arranged thing well. Thanks for both of them.

Thou the visit time was not the best time, since it was raining season and some rivers were ruther flooded with yellowish water, but the generally the the scenary is amazing.

Thank you for the trip arrangement you and your colleagues have provided for us.

Best wishes for you and your bussiness.

B. Regards,

Sisendro

Hi Ms. Wing,

We are back home. Here is a response.

You were exceptionally responsive in all matters and a pleasant person to work with.

We are a little slower than thirty years ago, so one or two items were canceled in consultation with our local tour guides. We liked the flexible arrangement allowing this modification. I am willing yo recommend your service to my people who also have an interest to visit China and I would like to use your service of I come China again.

Thanks once again for your attention to detail and hard work. We wish you great favor and peace.

Cordially,

Don Kammer

Good morning Rita,

We have very good time in China from 01/06/24 to 19/06/24. But it is a little bit exhausted after hiking through ZhangJiaJie. The best of all tour guides are Linda and Peter. These two tour guides show their ability to communicate with us. They care and respect us. In overall I would recommend China Discovery to relatives and friends for any upcoming China tour. We are happy for China Discovery to use our photos.

From Chris Vea, Sydney Australia

Hi Rita,

Sorry for the late reply.

Yes, I enjoyed my trip to China very much. The tour guide and driver are amazing and very professional.

Thanks to them, my trip with my family has been very pleasant and this made us wanted to visit the other parts of China again

Please see below my comments.

The tour arrangement was good and adequate pace for our family. I would definitely recomment your service to my friends and family who wished to join a more private tour in China.

Perhaps can add on services to recommend dining places (and assist to make reservations) prior to the trip as there are limited platforms outside China for us to make reservations. For me and my family, we take our dining seriously and would like to enjoy local food. We enjoyed our time, especially in Xi'an, as our guide brought us to places she has patroned for food and went extra miles to recommend good dining places in Xi'an. We love her recommendation.

Thanks and regards,

Finn

Dear April,

Thanks for your mail.

I was flying back and hence, was not able to check my mail or reply .

The tour was really good. In a single day, it was good to cover many places and get a feel for Shanghai. I have really positive feedback about the tour guide 'May.' Really appreciate her knowledge on the areas and also helping me to buy souvenirs.

All together the trip was memorable.

Thanks a lot for organizing.

Will be getting inc contact next time travelling with family.

Regards,

Plato

Hi there, feedback as below:

Wonder Wang was great to work with. All emails and questions were answered very quickly. We booked this a little bit late and provided a list of things that we would like to do and quickly got a detailed itinerary that covered everything we wanted to do. The itinerary was very detailed and we were well taken care of throughout the whole trip. During our trip we wanted to change something and this was done effortlessly. Five star service all the way!

Everything worked out great. All of our guides and drivers were extremely helpful and always on time and where they said they would be. The guides were local to the places we went so they provided us with a ton of information about everything we were seeing. The hotels were great, the trains were all great, we really enjoyed everything and it was easy thanks to the work of Wonder Wang.

I would 100% recommend this company. Everything was top notch and communication was smooth. We were never in doubt about anything to do with the trip. Again 5 stars!

David

Hi Wonder,

Everything went well and the staff was very helpful! Maybe the lunch and dinner were a bit crowded, so we had to upgrade to a VIP restaurant and then it was ok. We were not used to travel in a group when go to sightseeing but at the end it was fun. We were very satisfied with the cruise it was clean and new and strictly non smoking! By the way, we are leaving China for good in a couple weeks, since our 4 years contract has come to an end! We want to THANK YOU for organizing and taking care of our many memories trips in China, we REALLY appreciate!

Thank you!

Stefan

Hi Wing,

It is very very helpful of the fast and patient answer to my questions. Tour arrangements were very well organized and the tour guides were exceptionally good. I am definitely willing to recommend your service to my people who also have an interest to visit China. Nothing to add; the tour was very well tailored to our needs. If I come to China again, I would like to use your service again.

Thank you so much for your help and support in making this happen.

Best wishes,

Hi Wonder,

Thank you for arranging the tour for us. We sincerely enjoyed our time in China, and would like to commend our tour guide, Sandy! He was very patient, accommodating and took a lot of initiative to help make our trip more comfortable. He was also very knowledgeable about everything that we had to ask. 10/10 tour guide!

Best regards

Hi, Jack

We had a great time on the cruise. Luckily we had chance to go to Chongqing to see the train through building and the night lights of Chongqing. We really enjoyed the FengYanShanGuo show. It was amazing.

Thanks.

Ted

Hello Rita,

Yes we are home safely after an enjoyable, busy 3 weeks travelling around China.

Thank you for putting together such an interesting tour. The time passed so quickly. Had we not been on a 3 week time line I would have added a rest day every 3-4 days. That would have been a good addition.

The hotels were all lovely. I liked those that had a bath best, because after an energetic day walking, one could soak the muscles and rest for a while.

We loved travelling in the trains. Thanks for organising the comfortable upgrades.

I am glad our guides met us at the stations & dropped us off though. The stations are huge and finding the right platform was made easier with the guides help.

We had minor problems.

1. Shanghai- There are 2 exits and we went to the wrong one. However we rang the guide and then we found one another.

2. Another, was when we missed the transit sign & walked the wrong way following the crowd. Fortunately Bruce noticed & helped us get to the right place so we could get the connecting train in time.

3. My seat was already taken on one of the trains. I was advised by the conductor to walk through the train to carriage 8, get off, and get on again. There were 2 trains joined together. I wasn’t sure if the train would wait for me as they only stop for a minute! Fortunately the staff were very helpful getting me off, and getting me on again. They seated me next to Bill.

The tourist attractions we visited were outstanding. Everything we saw was worthwhile. We loved the spectacular Stage Shows.

We loved the cruise. We made new friends, had a lot of shipboard fun. The concierge and other staff were lovely.

Our guides were friendly, helpful and really good company.

We are happy to see how well China is going with trains, stations , roads, housing. National Parks and environmental protection. Good job!

We would recommend your Tour Company should anyone ask . We were very happy with everything.

All being well, we will return to do the other half of the original trip.

Here are some happy photos from Our enjoyable time visiting China.

Yours sincerely.

Carol & Bill

Hi Wonder,

Thanks for looking into our Bhutan hotel situation and for providing information into the hotels that were in our original itinerary.

Thimphu - we really liked Om Amriti. The owners and staff were very friendly and accommodating, the rooms were nice and comfortable, and the food delicious.

Punakha - Hotel River Valley was okay for one night. The hotel does cater to Indians but they were friendly and considerate. I was surprised our rooms were on different floors since we were traveling as a group, although this was the case in some of the other cities too.

Paro - Khangkhu Resort was not up to par with the other hotels as I previously shared.

We wear hiking to the Tigers Nest when you sent your email so we did not receive your offer for the hot stone bath and services. We will be going to a restaurant for dinner in Paró tonight so we hope to have a nice farewell dinner this evening.

Thanks,

David

Hi Evelyn,

We really enjoyed our recent trip

Everything was very good.

Booking with your company was easy with great communication

We felt it was good value for money

Onboard the room was clean and tidy and very well organised with meal times and excursion leaving times.

Many thanks,

Simon

Hi Evelyn,

Thank you so much for reaching out. I apologize for the delay, we have been very busy in our last few weeks of our China trip.

In regards to feedback for the 12-day cruise, it was fantastic. We were the only people on the boat who didn't speak Chinese and yet we felt so welcome and included. The staff (whether they spoke any English or not) went out of their way to treat us with kindness and incredible hospitality. One of the cruise managers, Leila, often came and interpreted for us exclusively while the other cruise manager was explaining things in Chinese. The tours were fantastic. We were able to learn so much about the different areas that we visited and every location was beautiful. And the food! Everything we ate was delicious. The chefs did an amazing job in providing wonderful food for every meal.

We have one very strange request. Whilst on the boat, there was a sauce there called noodle companion. If you could put us in touch with anyone who might know the recipe, we would be so grateful. We've been trying to find it on our whole trip through China because it was so delicious.

All in all, this was amazing experience and one of the best things we did in China. Thank you again for helping us organize it and please let us know if there's anything else you need from us.

All the best,

Courtney

Dear Amber,

Thank you for your kind assistance in planning our ZhangJIajie and Fenghuang Ancient Town family tour. In general, we had a great time.

The booking process is fast and easy, our enquiries were replied promptly.

Our tour guide Ms Liuli is very friendly and responsible. With her help, we didn't have to wait very long even though many attractions were crowded.

A very enjoyable trip, we had already recommended China Discovery to our friend who's planning to visit China this month.

Regards

Guo

Greetings Rita

We are now back in Hanoi after a very enjoyable China Discovery Tour.

It all worked very smoothly. Your tour guides were good and well informed.

Regards

Ted

Hi Jack,

First of all we would like to thank you whole heartedly for planning such an amazing trip to China for us! We have had a truly magical time - our tour far surpassed our expectations in every way. The itinerary that you put together completely met our needs and encompassed everything that we wanted and more.

The guides (and drivers) were all brilliant and we have very much enjoyed talking with them. The guides were all fun, knowledgeable and fluent in English. We were initially concerned that having guides with us all the time would be stifling, but that was not the case at all!

We would like to give a special mention to our visit to Yunnan where our guides William, Sofia, Lee, Amy and Aten looked after us. We loved Yunnan - one of our favourite parts of the trip was our cruise down the Li River, our stay at the Yangshuo Mountain Retreat and the hike in the Longji Rice Terraces. Thank you to William who helped to make this so special.

We have also loved seeing the Pandas in Chengdu, the Terracotta Army in Xi’an and of course the Great Wall at Jinshanling. Please pass on our thanks to Peter for hiking the 6k with us - another highlight of our trip!

We have been amazed that we have been able to see so much of your beautiful country without it feeling too rushed or overwhelming. The places that we visited were all incredible and there is nothing we would want to change.

The accommodation for the most part was excellent; we did feel that the e-outfitting hotels in Lijiang and Shangri-La were not so great but this is an observation and not a complaint. We were not staying long enough to complain but if we were doing the trip again this is one thing we would consider changing.

The transport worked really well. All of our drivers were great and the transfers by domestic flight and high speed train were well timed and easy to navigate. Some of the transport hubs are HUGE and it would be very easy to get a little lost! Having a clear meeting point at each station could be helpful.

Thank you once again, it really was the trip of a lifetime! I am very happy for you to use all or some of my comments.

Thank you so much,

Mary & Steve

Dear Amber,

the river cruise was very nice.

I would like to thank you very much for the great organization and the support during the trip.

I will book the next China trip with you again.

Thanks again and best regards from Germany,

yours Georg

Morning Wonder,

we have a good time although the kids were tired after all the walking…hahaha…

Eunice

Hi Rita,

Sights, tour guide, and transportation were excellent. Food was good, we just prefer western.

Jean

Hi there,

We are writing to thank Mr Wang for working with us from the planning phase to the final reality. He responded to my emails quickly, listened to me and answered my questions patiently and clearly. He even suggested altering our trip plan to avoid the huge crowd due to the May Day holiday, and thank goodness, we did change our plans.

During this 23-day trip, we were taken care of from the moment we arrived in Kunming airport to the last minute we were dropped off at Beijing Train Station. All tour guides and private drivers were professional and personal. All made our travel life so much easier.

We highly recommend Chinadiscovery, especially Mr Wang, to our friends and anyone that is interested in visiting China.

Thank you, Mr Wang, for all your hard work and patience helping me planning this grand trip that will last a lifetime. Hopefully we will talk to you in 4 years when we plan a trip to visit northwest part of China.

Sincerely,

Phyllis and Larry

Good morning, Mr Wang,

Larry and I returned home safe and sound, and are trying to recover from a very long exciting yet exhausting trip to China.

Thank you for working with us and making this grand trip possible, and precious gifts you sent to us.

All the tour guides and private drivers at each destination were wonderful. They were professional, courteous, flexible, personal, and easy to work with. Our shout outs to tour guides Vicky, Even, Delia, and Mike, and drivers Mr Lu (DaLi,LiJiang, Shangri-la) , Mr Tan in Chengdu, and Mr Fan in Beijing.

During the 23-day trip, Larry and I covered lots of grounds. For personal preference, we chose to skip Orange Island in ChangSha. We walked down 999 steps instead of taking the escalator in TianMenShan. Due to the weather, the ride to the Jade Dragon Snow Mountains was canceled. Due to my brief sickness, we skipped the SMT Great Wall. Larry got senior discount in Stone Forest. As suggested by several tour guides, I am writing to you to see if we would get the reimbursement for the service we didn’t use during the trip.

Thank you again for your patience, time and knowledge planning this wonderful trip with me.

Sincerely,

Phyllis

Hello Rita,

We are in transit in Beijing airport, on to Hangzhou.

The whole trip went very smoothly.

All transfers by plane and train on time.

We enjoyed our trip.

Will give you feed back when we return to NZ.

Thank you for all your assistance.

Cheers.

Hi Evelyn

I enjoyed my tour of Qinghai & Zhangye very much. The guides and drivers were excellent throughout my tour. Thank you for all your help.

I am planning for another tour in Sep and would like to check the 11 days Best Xinjiang Landscape Tour. The last stop of this tour is Kuitan city to visit Dushanzi Grand Canyon. I would like to extend the tour to travel the DU-KU highway and end the tour in Kuga before going back to Urumqi. I will be travelling alone. Please let me know the price for such a tour.

Thank you

Paul

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,

Richard

Hi Pheobe,

今天玩得很好！ 走很多，就当运动一下，天气还凉快。

现在在洪崖洞。 夜景很美。

很满意这次的行程。导游和司机都很帮忙。

Evelyn

Dear Rita,

Finally some good news for you.

We reached mount Everest base ,and found a good accomodation with own bedroom , toilets and good hotel.

It is called Rongbu hotel and run by the monastery.

I had to pay 240 yuan extra.

Being an elderly man I like my privacy.

The hotel also has oxygen supply just like the trains.

So next time book this place for future guests who are prepared to pay for privacy.

Regards

Dr Thomas

Hi Rita,

Nina was helpful, considerate, kind, knowlegable, a very nice person.

Bibiana

Dear Evelyn,

We really enjoyed the tour! The hotels, food and planning were all excellent. We especially enjoyed the company of our guide, Louise. Her English and knowledge are outstanding, we had a lot of fun together, and she helped us a lot during our stay.

Just a small tip, it could be useful for other clients to mention that rain protection and other necessities for a hike can be easily bought on site for a modest price. And also that the hiking is over an easy, paved path with stairs.

Thank you and Louise for arranging this wonderful time for us!

Best,

Natalia

Hello Wonder,

Johanna

Hi Wonder!!

We will send you more detailed reviews/comments later but so far the tour has wildly exceeded all of our expectations, for which you and our wonderful guides and drivers deserve so much credit!! In addition to all of the sights on our itinerary and the fantastic acrobatic show we saw in Beijing and the extraordinary light show we saw in Guilin, we were also fortunate enough to have Linda recommend to us the AMAZING Shu Feng Ya Yun Sezchuan Opera show last night, just a short walk from our hotel, which was one of the best shows we have ever seen!! The shadow puppets and mask-changing were especially incredible! And yes we did receive yesterday the BEAUTIFUL gifts you sent us - thank you so much - we love the pandas and will treasure them always!

Zazi
