Testimonial

Dear Karen, We had a wonderful time on our China trip with many memories. It is hard to pick the most memorable attraction but the natural beauty of Tiger Leaping Gorge was breathtaking. Visiting the hutong in Beijing and seeing the life of a family in a neighborhood was also something we will always remember. All of our tour guides were good. The most outstanding one was Janice in Lijiang because she enjoyed people and enjoyed showing us what she loved. She enjoyed her job and she listened to what we wanted to do to personalize our experience. She allowed us to see the "real" China not the tour group China. The last night she took us to a neighborhood restaurant that she goes to and again it was a real experience. There were other guides who were very close to Janice in their hospitality and skills-Java,Cindy,Linda, and Sissy. The hotels were up to standard. Our favorite was the one in Lijiang with its beautiful courtyard. The majority of meals were delicious and the tour guides took great care to order foods we liked. I would prefer restaurants that were not associated with trying to sell us something afterwards. Memorable meals were the hotpot with Java in Chendu and the restaurant in Kunming that Linda took us to that served a variety of mushrooms. When Linda realized we liked mushrooms she was quick to please us by taking us to this restaurant. These last two mentioned restaurants were ones that we paid for because they were dinner. We would recommend China Highlights most highly to friends and colleagues because your company and guides present China in a way that allowed us to have a "taste" of the Chinese culture in a personalized way. Traveling was made easier by your attention to detail. I realize there was so much to see in 21 days, but at times I felt we needed some quiet time to relax. The Yangtze River Cruise did offer some of that. We enjoyed the ethnic show in Kunming that Linda took us to-very well done with beautiful dancing and music. We also enjoyed the Naxi Symphony in Lijiang as well as the Kung Fu Show in Beijing. A wonderful experience not to be missed was the Tea House in Chendu for its colorful artists and presentations. We also enjoyed the bicycle ride around the city wall of X'ian. Something to try is the foot massage in Guillin and acupuncture on the River Cruise Thanks again for a great experience. Joan Riggle

Dear Sunny, First of all, we want to thank you for spending so much time with us for showing us in such great detail the lovely city of Beijing during our recent visit. Your unique knowledge of China's history and your gentle and polite manners certainly made the difference during the well organized tour organized by China Highlights. We will certainly recommend the company and your name to all our friends and colleagues visiting China in the future. With our best personal regards.

Dear Angela, My son, Taylor and I have greatly enjoyed our trip to China. Thank you for your careful planning. The Guide in each city was excellent, however, in Shanghai, Shou Ning (Lemon) had the best English skill. She is an excellent guide. I would be glad to recommend China Highlights and Lemon, to my friends. From the moment we met Lemon in the airport in Shanghai, she has nonstop provided us with very interesting information about how the city works, history, culture, and the people. Of all the guides we have had on this trip, Lemon has hands, down spoken the best English! She is intelligent and inquisitive and always taking notes on English words, she is not familiar with. I expressed interest in Silk products and she took us to an excellent location where both my father and purchased some products at a good price. During our time with Lemon, we altered the schedule and she was able to work with the change as if it had never happened. The duration as the day, the timing was flawlessly coordinated. Resultantly, I rate her flexibility a high mark. Tonight we saw the acrobatic show which was quite impressive. Lemon made this recommendation to us and we really enjoyed ourselves. Lemon has a very good base as contacts within Shanghai and she uses them to the benefit as her clients. Out all as our guides we found Lemon to have the answers to more as our general questions about how life in China goes. Her experience and amazing knowledge base really added to our trip as she simply has more life experiences to draw from. In the United States, she would affectionately be referred to as a "pistol". We are pleased to have experienced Lemon as our guide and I highly recommend her to other westerners.

Elaine, Thank you, the guide in Yichang gave us the document immediately upon our arrival. We really enjoyed our stay in China. The entire trip was well organized and very worry-free for us. At each location we were greeted by the smiling faces of our guides who took care of everything for us. We will definitely recommend your company to our friends. Thank you again for a terrific vacation. Melody Dennard

Dear Sunny, Our tour guide was the nicest and friendliest. We were so pleased with having such a charming, polite and patient guide. It was very clear that our guide took her work seriously and gave me and my two children a great experience here in Beijing. Kiwi was flexible and gave us just the information we wanted, needed and just as important. Kiwi did not give us too much of information she also let us (gave us time to) experience the atmosphere when visiting the different sights. Kim was great.
