Our trip to China was absolutely amazing (10/10). Huge thanks to Tina and the NCT support team for making it all possible. Our guide was exceptional—so welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel right at home. We truly appreciated all the logistics and bookings handled ahead of time (train/car transfers, museum visits, historical sites, hotels, etc.). It made our trip smooth and worry-free.

Sally has been an excellent travel advisor from the very beginning. We provided a long list of places and attractions we wanted to visit, and she managed to plan a suitable itinerary based on our holiday schedule. Even before we officially agreed to the itinerary, she started booking some activities to ensure we wouldn't miss any experiences or hotels! Everything was well taken care of. Tickets, transfers, guides, all were perfectly arranged. Nihao China Tour made the whole process entirely stress-free, and their detailed information and communication alleviated all our concerns. I highly recommend the services of Nihao China Tour (NCT).

From the moment we started planning our trip with travel advisor Stella to the moment we returned to the airport, everything went smoothly, thanks to the enthusiasm and dedication of the NCT team. The hotel facilities were beautiful, and the staff were always very attentive and friendly. Our driver and guide, Andy and Frank, were very friendly and knowledgeable. Talking to them about anything related to China, whether it's history, politics, or culture, was always a pleasure. Stella made sure we were well-prepared, answered every question, sent very useful guides, and left no detail unaddressed in our planning. Highly recommend them!

Our honeymoon trip to China arranged by NCT was absolutely perfect. The tour guides and drivers picked us up on time every day. The guides were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. We especially enjoyed our time with the guide and driver Sam in Xi'an. All the hotels were excellent. Our favorite was a hotel in Xi'an with outstanding service. The room and public spaces were lovely, and we enjoyed delicious breakfasts and dinners at the restaurant multiple times. All hotels booked by NCT included breakfast, which was essential before engaging in various activities. We felt very safe in every city, whether it was with the tour guides and drivers or the places we stayed. The itinerary planned by Fiona was perfect. This was a wonderful trip that we will cherish forever! Thank you NCT and Fiona for arranging this trip!

I absolutely recommend NCT (Nihao China Tour). Everything went smoothly except for a minor hiccup on one of the tours. Their service is truly top-notch. Additionally, the hotels and tours were fantastic. Everyone was extremely professional, and the hotels were better than typical budget accommodations.
