Testimonial

The following review may sound like an advertisement for China Highlights travel company.  I have just returned from the most enjoyable 14 day tour of China that was put together by a travel company I found on the internet. Although somewhat apprehensive from the moment I contacted them, till the time I got my airline tickets in Hong Kong for the start of my tour, it has been a totally positive experience.

Ryan Chen was my internet contact who accommodated me at every opportunity.  The group included 4 people and we got everything that was promised. We landed in Chongqing to be greeted by our first of 4 private driver and tour guides. All the tour guides were knowledgeable and had an excellent command of the english language.  We took the Victoria Cruise ship  Katarina up the Yangtze River.  Our room was clean and very comfortable and the crew fantastic. We ended our 3 day cruise after going through the 3 Gorges in Yichang, where we spent the day before flying to Xian.  I would have liked to have spent more time there (now that I have been there).  Our 5 star accommodations at the Sofitel hotel and 6 star Tour Guide, Yang Wen (IVY) made us feel so comfortable. Plus we only scratched the surface of this beautiful city.  The Terra Cotta Warriors are a must see if you are visiting China for the first time.  Our final stop was Beijing....Be prepared for spending time in the car and long walks.Our driver Ricky knew how to get us around.  The Great Wall of China was certainly the highlight of our visit. .

I hope you will look up www.chinahighlights.com and ask for Ryan Chen.  You wont regret it!

Hi Cheryl

We are home now. We all had a most wonderful time. I will write for you and your company a review of our tour. It was most excellent! I will write so you may be able to use some of on your website. I will also include some wonderful pictures. Here is one picture from Xian to start with. Thank you again so much for your help and I am sure I will be visiting China again with your help.

Good Afternoon, Eva,

Thank you for arranging our trip to China. Every thing was very good . The most memorable attraction was the trip to Lake Karacul and the local market. We enjoy seeing real China. The tour guides were very good . Rick put a lot of effort into making sure we were happy and with more experience will be an excellent tour guide. Hadij was very good. All the hotels were good , maybe Kashgar was our favourite because we enjoyed the city of Kashgar best. We would recommend Chinahighlights to our friends.We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and are looking forward to the next time.

Sunny,

Sorry about the delay in responding. It was hard to pick out what we liked best since we had so many memorable experiences during the trip. Not the least was meeting the Chinese people who always responded to a smile with a smile and a greeting. Shi shi ni for all your help.

Dear Angela,

The great wall was the most memorable,each guide in beijing,xian and shanghai were friendly, knowledgeable, polite and punctual. I only mention these guides because we spent most time with them We have no complaints about the hotels or the meals. I think the one we enjoyed the most was the guangzhou hotel in beijing, and have already recommended china highlights and would do so again. We had a wonderful time, everything was well organised. Don't miss anything! A word of warning for other travellers beware in beijing airport of bogus taxi drivers.

Hi, Elaine,

Seeing the necessary sights in Beijing, Xian, Shanghai, Holding a Panda (for me at Chengdu), All the Unesco and World Heritage Sights (Suzhou, Zhouzhuang, Lijiang and the many gardens everywhere - we managed to see 8 out of the top 10 gardens in China, fitting in a few extras here and there), Hongcun, The Three Gorges Dam, Tiger Leaping Gorge, The Stone Forest, Guilin and Yangshou, (we particularly enjoyed our cycle ride there) and all the Evening Shows that were booked for us as well as the extras that we fitted in ourselves. We will never forget Suzhou, Zhouzhuang and Lijiang as we had no idea that places like that existed in China, so we would consider them 'must do's.

Dear Sunny,
Thank you again for providing such a wonderful service. We will definitely be back!

We loved all the sights and sounds of Tibet, in particular the monasteries  All the guides were very good. Dorjee in Lhasa gave us an excellent feel for the history of the place. We had a lot of fun with Michelle in Chengdu. And Jassie was very flexible and wonderful in introducing us to art and antiques shopping opportunities. All hotels and meals were very good.

We will definitely book again with China Highlights as it took away all the stress of having to arrange the itinerary, the tickets and make the hotel bookings, leaving us free to enjoy our holiday to the full.

Dear Sunny,
The trip to Suzhou Saturday was just great!! We loved John, it was very well-organized, the driver was great, the boat ride – well, all of it. I thank you so much for all of your hard work, and we will DEFINITELY use you again when we want to plan these things. In fact, people who took the trip Saturday even asked if they could book smaller trips with you for example when they have friends or family visiting. Thank you again!! –Liz-

Eva, 
I first learned of China Highlights through Google. Eva Wang was assigned as my travel advisor. She has proven to be a remarkable advisor. Very patient as I awaited word whether my travel companions would join me....then I kept adjusting dates. And finally, because of family cicumstances, I cancelled the trip altogether, only to rebook it the next day. Through all of this, Eva has remained very professional and calm and organized. She has been very helpful in providing me with a custom tour for a solo traveler. I now am really looking forward to this trip due largely to her efforts. She is the reason I will come back again to China Highlights. And I will be sure to tell my close friends and associates of the superb service I have recieved. What a shame I will not be traveling to Guilin, I wish I could stop in and say "Thank you" directly to Eva. But, many, many thanks regardless.

Dear Eva,
China Highlights, my tour guides and drivers, where all excellent. Everyone did a great job of working with me and making sure that the trip met all of my expectations.

I enjoyed all aspects of my trip. I think that the Li River cruise was spectacular as was the trip up to Moon Mountain. I also enjoyed the old city tour where they make fans. As a bonus, as we had some additional time on our hands, we took a bike ride through the country side around Yangshao. This was a great way to see the country from a different perspective and also to be able to see the local people in their environment. Also, in the planning stages of the trip, I would be very remiss if I didn't mention the assistance that Eva provided to me. As I was making the arrangements, I had some difficulty with making an airline reservation due to the payment requirements on some of the Chinese airline websites (Chinese issued credit cards only). Eva made the arrangements for me, which was a life saver. Also, getting the chance to meet Eva personally was a treat. Thank you, Eva, for all of your assistance. I had a great trip that I really enjoyed because of your efforts.
