I can hardly believe how much I enjoyed my trip to China. I have always wanted to explore the beautiful scenery of China, and this trip exceeded my expectations. I have nothing but praise for Nihao China Travel. I discussed several different travel plans for China with them, and they provided tailored options for each of my ideas. Initially, I was a bit worried about using a travel agency I found online, but they made the whole planning process incredibly easy.
Every time I arrived at a new location, there was a driver to pick me up and take me to my hotel. All the guides and drivers were excellent - punctual and accommodating of all my special needs. They provided a wealth of historical background on the sites we visited. Nihao China Travel also did a great job in selecting the hotels, which I found to be perfect.

Dear Nihao China Tour Team,
This truly was a once-in-a-lifetime trip... Our expert consultant Lily was an absolute treasure. I can't express how grateful we are for her; her efforts made our trip so memorable. She genuinely helped us every step of the way, making the journey so smooth that I never had to worry about transfers or bookings. This is a whole new way of traveling, and I don't think I can go back to my previous stressful planning routines. At every checkpoint, we had real people providing us with information and tickets, which was astonishing. My partner and I could ask questions anytime, and we felt supported throughout the entire 11 days.
Our first stop was Yunnan. I was a little hesitant about this unknown place, but Lily arranged an excellent guide named Allen for us, and we learned about the lifestyles of ethnic minorities.
The Forbidden City and Great Wall in Beijing were like scenes straight from a textbook. I am very glad we stayed here for two days.
In Chengdu, we stayed in a lovely boutique hotel, and I enjoyed reading about its history and the surrounding neighborhood.
Our final day in Shanghai was like a dream. We slept in, visited The Bund, and went to the Oriental Pearl Tower.
I can't praise Lily and all the guides, drivers, and hotels enough!

Our trip to China was an unforgettable experience. We booked the trip to celebrate our graduation but quickly found the planning process a bit overwhelming. We found Nihao China Tour (NCT) and quickly got in touch with our trip planner Lucy. We communicated via email, and Lucy created a customized itinerary that fit our schedule, allowing us to see all the attractions in a short time while still enjoying each destination. Lucy was very helpful throughout the planning process and answered all our questions before we left.
At the airport, we were met by an NCT representative who provided us with all our pre-booked tickets and introduced us to our itinerary. Our hotels were charming and comfortable, conveniently within walking distance to the center market and city area. The private guides and transportation arrangements in Hong Kong, Guilin, Tibet, and Beijing were perfect. All the guides were wonderful – knowledgeable, friendly, fun, and always willing to take countless photos for us.
I would recommend NCT and Lucy to anyone planning a trip to China!

It all started with a great plan made by our consultant Sally and me. They offered various options that I could customize according to my family’s preferences and schedule. We originally planned to take the trip in June 2022, but for some reasons at that time, we couldn’t make it. Nihao China Tour delayed the whole trip by a year and a half, and we finally completed our trip to Guilin, Chengdu, and Yunnan in December 2023. The guides were very knowledgeable, the pick-up was punctual, and the chosen hotel locations were very central.
