China Tour Reviews

Restaurants and meals were quite OK but without a certain highlight. Since we are living in China, we might already be a little bit more familiar to Chinese food than most of other tourists coming from abroad. So, we expected some more typical local specialities which we did not know, yet. The only exception was the Restaurant of Weihai Hotel Kunming.

With respect to the tour guides, we have absolutely no cause to complain. All the three guides were very kind and their working attitude was perfect. They all spoke a very good English and their knowledge about the places we visited remarkebly and we got a lot of interesting informations.

All our drivers were friendly, helpfull and did not give us any reason to complain. Also the cars were OK and kept clean all the way.

Although all of our guides during that tour were outstanding, we especially want to thank our guide Rose from Kunming. Her warm-hearted welcome and care, her open mind, combined with a sound and wide knowlegde about all the things we were interested in, as well as her excellent English made our stay in Kunming really memorable.

We, for the first time, booked a tour to Kunming, Dali and Lijiang in April 2008 with ChinaTour360 and we were highly satisfied both with the communication between ChinaTour360 and us and the perfect organization of our trip. Transportation, accommodation and foot did not give cause for any complaints. And in all places we visited we met well educated, knowlegdeable and very friendly tour guides. So we really enjoyed our trip and we will definitely book our next one with ChinaTour360, too.

Thank you again for all your assistance with the trip.

As for the comments on your services:

The meals were overall very good. Excellent quality and preparation. It did seem that some of the dishes on the set menus were geared toward "Western" tastes and we would not have minded if some of the choices were more adventurous. Our favorite meal was lunch in Guilin. Robin helped us choose some really delicious entrees. Overall, lunch and dinner tended to be too close together for such large meals.

All the guides were quite conscientious. And Ray in Beijing was particularly friendly, energetic and informative.

All of the guides spoke perfectly fluent English and very knowledgeable about each site we visited. .

The drivers were courteous and skilled. Mr. Lee in Beijing was particularly conscientious and professional.

We would like to give a special mention to the guide in Beijing. Ray in Beijing was exceptional and got our trip started with great enthusiasm. And when one of our luggage broke, Ray took care of having it repaired at a local shop.

Robin in Guilin/Yangshuo was also very personable and we enjoyed his perspective.

Best,

Thom Widmann and Fung Lee
