After experiencing a very slow and chaotic booking process with another travel agency, I reached out to Travel China Guide. With only two weeks left before our trip to China, I was starting to get worried. I sent an email before going to bed, and when I woke up, I had a reply from Lucy with a preliminary itinerary! Wow!
The itinerary was exactly what we were looking for, and we were very excited. Our entire trip was smooth, enjoyable, and professional.
Every guide was very knowledgeable and gave my wife and me a deep understanding of a culture we knew very little about. The tips they shared with us each day enhanced our experience. Thank you all.
Make sure to consider using Travel China Guide for your once-in-a-lifetime experience—you won’t regret it.

We found all the hotels to be fantastic.
Throughout the trip, we were very well taken care of. Our guides were knowledgeable, thoughtful, friendly, and their English was excellent. We particularly enjoyed having Eric as our guide in Xi'an.
