Testimonial

Hi Karen,

We have arrived back to Tianjin from Shanghai and I wanted to drop you an email to thank you for everything in regards to organising our trip. We had a great time and have many great memories. I want to thank you for being so helpful and making everything so easy for us.

Thanks, Krish

Dear Sunny,

We are just back from our trip and we wanted to let you know that the services of China Higlights far exceeded our expectations. The service was first class and helpful at every stop. I am so glad that we booked our trip with China Highlights. Everyone was professional, courteous timely and unique in their own way. I could not have asked for more.

Thank you, Jade Gong and Greg Frey

Dear Karen,

All your planning was perfect. All your guides were prepared, nice and easy to work with on the minor changes that occurred. The smog everywhere was a significant distraction. I know you can't fix this yourself, but Americans can't put up with it. You have a beautiful country but you cannot see it. Best to you and your company. Thanks again for everything.

Dear Cheryl:

I would like to thank you very much for your attention in organizing our trip, which was absolutely fantastic! I must say that the trip exceeded both my husband's and my expectations.

China is truly a magnificent country! I must commend each of our guides, Vincent Wang (Beijing), Ann (Zhangxinxin) (Xian), Jiajia Tang (Shanghai) and Cecilia (Suzhou) for their professionalism, expertise, and friendliness. Each of them are truly wonderful ambassadors for the city they represent and they made our stay in each city a great experience. They are certainly assets to your organization! I would recommend China Highlights to anyone based on the guides that we had. If you would please pass my email to each of them to Thank them so much for making our trip one of the best we've taken. Or, if it is possible, for you to pass to me their contact information (mailing addresses / email addresses) so that I may personally thank them.

My husband and I hope that we will have another chance to visit China and we will certainly make our tour arrangements through China Highlights. Thank you again for organizing our trip!

Dear Eva,

Find below my answers to your questions:

Most outstanding attractions:The Great Wall and Pingyao as you could immerse yourself in the feelings of them

The most outstanding tour guide: Michele and Linda as they thought of things we that might interest us not just during the day but also in evenings. Lucia was good but we only had her for half a day.

Hotels and meals: Once the room was sorted in Beijing hotels were good (and excellent when you upgraded us) thank you. Lunches were good and interesting.

Dear Elaine,

We had an outstanding time in China. We were very impressed with how well our guides spoke English and their vast knowledge of the history and cultures of the area. They were also very flexible and rearranged our itineraries when we had time conflicts so we could still see everything.

Most memorable attractions:I was most impressed with the Three Gorges tour and the Terra Cotta Warriors. I would definitely recommend your services to others. I'd recommend the mag/lev train ride to the airport from Shanghai. Also, we returned to Shanghai from Suzhou by train instead of by car. This was based on a recommendation from travelers we met on the Three Gorges Cruise.  We had a fantastic time and really thank you for your patience with revising the itinerary as we finalized our plans, both before and during the trip. Have a wonderful year.

Sincerely, Paulette Woods

Dear Candy,

Please see my answers below. I had a fun trip

The most memorable attraction:  I had to do the Yangtze river cruise and the great wall. And they were great. However I would have loved to stay the entire day around the summer palace.

Tour guide:  I had 3 people total, two of which picked me up primarily to take me to the airport. So Emily would have to be the most outstanding. However everyone seemed knowledgeable.

Hotel and meals: The restaurants in Beijing were all good. I know China highlights have contracts with all scheduled stops. Even though the owner may have changed hands since their initial evaluation all were good.

Comments: Summer Palace, more time! Please consider giving the guides either business cards or name badges with the 'china highlights' logo. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable however I was by myself and did not know these people. I trust them because they knew I was coming but there is no true identification. If I were with a group I would feel more secure.

Best Regards,

Dear Candy,

It's now a week since we are back home from our China trip. And at the end we can tell you that everything went smooth, we stayed healthy during all the time in China and we didn't have to change our itinerary at all. All reservations have been done according to our wishes and the tickets were ready at the time needed. Let me go through your questionnaire in short:

The Most memorable attractions: Li River Cruise / Yangtse River Cruise ,Terracotta Army in Xi'an and Shanghai. We only had a tour guide for transfers in Chongqing and Yichang. All went perfectly well.

Hotel and Meals: All hotel arrangements we have done by ourselves. We were happy that we stayed in hotels like Sheraton, Novotel and Four Points by Sheraton. We know the chinese food and we like it. But we had to learn that the local chinese food is sometimes a bit strange for non-chinese. The food on President 2 was prepared also for western taste and we enjoyed it.

We will recommend your company, specially the knowlwgdge and services provided by Candy Wei, to our friends at all times. We will share our impressions with friends here in Switzerland and shall also recommend China Highlights as travel office.

With best regards

Ruedi and Bettina Bertschinger Seehaldenstr.

Hi Candy,

Here are some of my suggestions and observations from our recent trip:

The most memorable attraction that we visited must be the Great Wall of China. The children particularly enjoyed the attraction, especially my son who is 8 years old.

Tour Guide and Driver: Nancy Kim was a very efficient tour guide. She allowed us a great deal of flexibility and we were able to see the Olympic Village and go the the Ya Show market. I must also commend her for being very good in dealing with the children. My daughter enjoyed her company very much. Wang Sian Shen, who was our driver during the tour, was also very good. I usually do not enjoy long drives because they make me nauseous, but Wang Sian Shen was a very good driver.

Accommodation: We stayed at the Novotel Peace Hotel. The rooms, as well as the housekeeping service, were excellent. My son needed to have his shoes repaired, and the hotel promptly sent a utility man to do the repairs, which we appreciated very much.  

Overall, Candy, it was a good tour.  I would really appreciate it.

Best regards, Trina Yu
