We chose a fast-paced tour of Xi'an and Zhangjiajie, feeling it was the best experience. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and all the guides were excellent. Upon landing, our guide met us and took us to our first hotel, providing a detailed introduction of the entire itinerary and ticketing arrangements.
We toured the Li River and Yangshuo in Guilin and really liked our guide. She took us to some beautiful photo spots.
The guide in Zhangjiajie gave us great directions and suggestions, taking us through Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. He was an outstanding guide.
All the drivers and guides were very punctual and passionate about sharing their culture. They confidently answered all our questions during the trip and had great photography skills! The drivers safely took us to our destinations, and I felt well cared for overall.
Before the trip, Snow gave us a lot of useful advice, which helped me better prepare for the trip. She reminded me of things I might have forgotten (travel insurance, currency exchange, packing tips, etc.). She was very responsive to all my questions before the trip.
We greatly appreciated these details that made our experience effortless. The hotels were clean, and the hotel staff was friendly and helpful. My only complaint about the trip was that the hotel shower drainage was a bit slow. Other than that, the trip was fantastic!
