Working with Lily from Nihao China Tour ensured that planning our trip to China was completely hassle-free. We knew we wanted to visit Shanghai, Zhangjiajie, and Xi'an. She provided us with an excellent itinerary that included five-star hotels and private tours. She patiently followed up with me, answering all my questions and making the booking experience seamless. The documents and itinerary were well-organized and easy to follow.
We had the most knowledgeable guides and drivers taking us from one location to another. The guides and drivers were very punctual and kept us moving at a good pace, allowing us to experience everything China has to offer. The highlight of the trip was visiting Zhangjiajie.
I highly recommend Nihao China Tour to anyone seeking high-end services and who doesn't mind paying a bit extra for it.

Stella is our itinerary planner. Everything went very smoothly, and we didn\'t have to worry about anything because everything was planned perfectly. Our guide in Zhangjiajie, Tina, was very informative and provided detailed explanations. Her English is very fluent. The guide in Yunnan was also very knowledgeable. Both hotels had excellent breakfasts and very clean rooms. Our driver was always punctual. I recommend Nihao China Tour to everyone who asks about our trip.

We used NCT (Nihao China Tour) to arrange our 8-day trip to China, visiting Chengdu, Shanghai, and Beijing, and just returned two weeks ago. I have to say, this experience was amazing! They did a really wonderful job. All the bookings, drivers, tour guides, hotels, dinners, and lunches at local restaurants were exceptional. But what truly stood out was how they handled unexpected situations during our trip. I highly recommend their services; they are worth every penny!
